Hi there, Ariana!
Thanks so much for visiting planDisney! I love visiting Disney Parks with friends so much. I'd be happy to help you plan the best day ever!
While the Walt Disney World Resort uses the My Disney Experience app and has options to add friends and family, the
Disneyland Mobile App works a little differently. You can definitely link your tickets to each account so you can join a virtual queue (which is currently required to experience
Haunted Mansion Holiday) or make Lightning Lane reservations together. And if you take pictures with Disney PhotoPass Photographers in the parks you're welcome to scan both tickets so you each have the photos on your device. But some things, like dining reservations, can only be linked to one account.
When I travel with large groups I'll often take a screenshot of our dining reservations and text it to everyone so they have the location, time, and confirmation number. I also like to create a note on my phone for each day to gather up our plans for characters, entertainment, and even snacks! It's helpful to review the
Disney Eats Foodie Guides if you're visiting during the holidays, to make sure you don't miss any seasonal items. Don't skip the gingerbread, it's delicious!
Wishing you and your friend an amazing visit to the parks, Ariana!
Keep moving forward!
Amanda
