- Easy to use

The Bad
- Basic
- Restaurant menus aren't optimized for the iPhone
Planning a trip to Walt Disney World involves a lot of planning -- flights, hotels, rental cars, and restaurant reservations, just to name of few. Of course, this generates a lot of paperwork and confirmation numbers to take with you. Instead of carrying paper copies, the Mouse Memo app ($0.99) allows you to access all that information right from your iPhone or iPod touch.

Disney World travel information on your iPhone
Mouse Memo is an organizing tool that consolidates all your Disney World travel information. From the homepage, you can enter travel information for flights, ground transportation, and hotels. For example, under the hotels tab, Mouse Memo includes spaces to enter the hotel name (numerous hotels are included in the app so you don’t have to enter the address, phone number, etc.), check-in time, confirmation number, room rate, and the date a deposit is due.
The setup is similar for flight information and ground transportation. The rental car tab is particularly full-featured, as it includes spaces to enter mileage and a sliding tab so you can remember how full the tank was when you picked up the car.
With the Mouse Memo app, you can also add dining reservations or log details for Walt Disney World events. Event details are included for ticketed events, spas, and much more.
The app is also a good resource for researching Disney World restaurants. You can search by location, price, type, cuisine, etc. The search results link to the menu detail pages at AllEars.net, but they’re not optimized for the iPhone, so you’ll need to do lots of scrolling.
The Bottom Line
Mouse Memo is a neat little app that helps you organize your trip to Disney World. The app is very easy to use and it will only take a few minutes to enter all your vacation details. The app is a little basic, but the extensive restaurant information makes it worth a download. It would be nice, however, if the restaurant menus were displayed within the app. Overall rating: 3.5 stars out of 5.
What You’ll Need
The Mouse Memo app can be used with the iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch, and it requires iPhone OS 3.1.2 or later.
