TOP INSIGHTS

A weekly roundup of SeaWorld's key feedback

1

Login Issues

A significant number of users, approximately 30%, report being unable to log into the app, even when using correct credentials. This issue is causing frustration as users are unable to access their passes or other features, leading to a poor user experience.

I can't even log into the app; it keeps giving me an error message despite using the correct password.

2

Inaccurate Wait Times

Around 25% of users complain about the app displaying incorrect wait times for rides, which leads to wasted time and frustration. This inaccuracy makes it difficult for visitors to plan their day effectively, diminishing the app's utility.

The app showed a 10-minute wait for a ride, but it was actually over an hour when I got there.

3

Account Creation Requirement

Approximately 20% of users are frustrated by the requirement to create an account just to access basic features like maps and showtimes. This mandatory sign-up process is seen as unnecessary and intrusive, deterring users from using the app.

I just wanted to see the map, but the app forced me to create an account first.

4

Forced Notifications

About 15% of users are unhappy with the app's requirement to enable notifications to use it. This is perceived as a violation of privacy, as users feel they should have the option to choose whether to receive notifications.

The app won't let me proceed without enabling notifications, which I don't want.
