    I purchased all magic bands on my experience app. How do I let them put them on their own app

    Hey there, Cindi! I am always pleased to meet another Georgian who likes entering "Walt Disney World Resort" into their GPS. And once you are at the Most Magical Place on Earth, your MagicBand+ helps you easily navigate your vacation. Let's see what we can do to ensure the bands you purchased are assigned to the right people so you can sing "Hakuna Matata!" all the way down I-75.

    The bands may already be linked to the right people if you purchased them through the My Disney Experience app as part of your Disney Resorts Collection hotel reservation.

    To see the bands that are assigned to you and the Guests you manage:

    1. Open the main menu (the "≡" at the bottom of the screen)
    2. Scroll to "Account"
    3. Select "MagicBands & Cards."

    You will hopefully see bands with the profiles where they belong. You can ask family and friends who manage their accounts to make sure their bands are linked. 

    Once all the bands are correctly linked, the person who manages them will need to pair them with their phone. After pairing them, you can also check for any software updates to ensure your band unlocks all its magical capabilities. You can also customize the band, picking a light color scheme that matches your style.

    Cindi, these steps are for bands linked to the right people. Fingers crossed, they are! Once linked, a MagicBand+ cannot be transferred to another person. If the bands are associated with the wrong MyDisney account, you will need to call the My Disney Experience, MagicBand and MagicBand+ line. If the bands have not been used, they may be able to assist in getting them linked correctly.

    I hope arranging all the MagicBand+ gadgets and gizmos aplenty is easy so you can enjoy the whoozits and whatzits galore. If we can help with any other questions, please come see us again at planDisney.

    Life is the Bubbles!
