Well folks, Justin and Autumn are back at it again with another jam-packed episode of Easy Diz It! This time, they're tackling the controversial topic of how to use Disney's Genie+ system without being glued to your phone the entire vacation.

They kick things off with some friendly banter about Autumn's car troubles and the woes of car shopping as a couple. But soon enough we dive right into the main topic.

Justin gets fired up reading a strongly-worded 1-star review from a guest named Edward. Poor Edward felt like he spent more time stressing about Genie+ reservations than actually enjoying himself. Cue Autumn reeling Justin back in - they agree constant phone use takes away from the magic of family time at Disney.

This leads into their helpful tips for minimizing phone time with Genie+. First up is the "Use, Make" strategy - book your first Lightning Lane at 7am, then after using it, book your next one. Only check for modifications during scheduled breaks. Simple but effective!

Next is hiring the Standby Skipper app to book your Lightning Lanes for you. At $25 a day or $5 a week, Justin and Autumn debate if the convenience is worth the cost.

Other suggestions include setting firm phone checking rules, reconsidering Genie+ during lower crowd times, and focusing on individual Lightning Lane rides.

At the end of the day, efficiency isn't everything - it's about soaking up those magical moments with your crew!
