    Can I use my Apple Watch as a key to my room like my phone?

    Hi there Steve, 

    Thanks for stopping by planDisney with your question! I see you're arriving at Walt Disney World today, so I'll get started. 

    Like you, I'm an Apple Watch wearer, and I love that it can be integrated into my Disney vacation. Disney MagicMobile can be easily set up by clicking on the menu icon "≡". Next, find "Set Up MagicMobile Entry" and follow the prompts. You can select your card design and then save it to your Apple Wallet. Once you've set up your Disney MagicMobile service, you can use both your iPhone and Apple Watch for theme park entry, scanning into Lightning Lanes, tapping to link any PhotoPass photos to your account, and to pay for food and merchandise purchased (these will show up on your hotel folio). 

    Unfortunately, at the moment, Apple Watches cannot open a Disney Resort hotel room door, but you do have other options! While a tap of the Apple Watch would be convenient, you can tap a MagicBand or your phone (through the My Disney Experience App), or if you prefer a physical card, you can use a Key to the World Card (you can get this at your Resort lobby). You will need to have your Disney Resort hotel reservation linked to your account, but once linked, you are good to go!

    Steve, I hope this information is helpful. Enjoy your Walt Disney World vacation, and have fun making memories!

    Warm Hugs,
    Candace
