Fingers crossed, today will be the day you finally get to ride it!

I don't know whether the number of people in each boarding group fluctuates, but I'm sure a couple of weeks ago back-up group were much higher than 47?! I don't understand why they're having so many issues and down times

So nervous that we won't get on. I hate technology at the best of times and am hoping DH will know what to do once we get to the park. I read somewhere that it helps where you stand in the park so hopefully we will get in early and make our way to a good wi-fi spot! It all sounds very stressful! It all sounds like the potential for a sit-com moment - you can image the conversation!

Just spent an hour watching various accounts on youtube on getting a boarding group - now, that's an hour of my life I won't get back
It seems that there are conflicting views on how to refresh the app just before park opening etc, checking wifi/data speeds etc. We'll just have to make sure we're in the park nice and early, have the app ready on 2 phones (will try wifi on one and data on the other) and hope for the best. I have pencilled in more than one attempt at this, and given FloridaDreams' experience that may well prove key to riding ROR, if at first you don't succeed, try, try again.

I hope you do end up riding today. Fingers crossed it doesn't break down too many times today.

Update:WE DID IT! It is amazing! And I totally get why it breaks down - it is a complex ride but so worth it! We had three phones trying (set up all accounts, make sure they’re all linked and everyone has all group members in their account at least the day before) aim to get to the park for 45 minutes before park opening to give plenty of time to get through security and park access. We had two on mobile data and one on wifi and went slightly left of Chinese Theatre (not sure if it helped or not). Do not open app until seconds before park opening. App does not refresh - you have to close down and start again if it’s not open yet. And keep trying! Be prepared to try for a few days! And may the force be with you - I reckon it’s a complete lottery!

Woohoo, really pleased for you!

It does seem like a lottery. Just checked the app and they're now boarding groups 97-104 so they were being very cautious setting back up groups at 49.

Enjoy the rest of your day and holiday - and thanks for the updates and advice
