App so bad it ruins whole experience

This app is trash you try to buy tickets in the app and then still have to QR code scan them back into the app. It constantly tells you that you must get the app to use it. It’s also terribly confusing! Don’t come to USJ Japan.

Great app!

This app helped me through my two day stay at Universal in Japan. It was the best experience I ever had because of this app. It showed us all the rides so we didn’t have to search for them. Waiting on line was hard but I couldn’t blame the app. This made walking in the hot sun fun instead, because USJ made it possible for us to have extremely lots of fun. It really came up to my expectations.

Ticket purchase

We have tried for days to purchase tickets - tried using every cc I own. A message keeps popping up stating they are sorry they are unable to process at this time. They finally responded via email (over 24 hours later) that I could use another site to buy the tickets. Or get a 3D code from the cc company! I can’t even get to that point before the ‘can’t complete transaction at this time’ pops up. And the other sites do not have the express passes I want to use. I tried Klook and after placing an order for two entry tickets and two express tickets, they charged for two entry and ONE express saying they’d sold out before order was completed- did not give me the option to select something different…what am I supposed to do with one express ticket???? As amazing as Universal Studio parks are, you would think they could afford a better site that works. Very disappointing.

The live map which shows where you are in real time is an absolutely brilliant feature. Would give this 5 stars if only the map could be programmed to get you to a destination. This is a must have app if visiting universal studios Japan

So complicated to use the app.. Japan is supposed to be advanced but I can barely navigate the USJ app.. can’t pre-plan my day and getting a Super Nintendo ticket is next to impossible.. the links don’t work so well and everything keeps reverting back to Japanese when I’ve changed to English.. god knows how the day will go inside Universal

Awful

I was trying to get tickets for the Halloween overnight event. Thought it was the right tickets considering they costed so much more than regular. Turns out I didn’t get the right tickets. I tried so many times to get the timed entry ticket for the event, but it just says “coming soon” on the app. So I assumed I got the right ones. Didn’t get the right ones, got turned away at the gate. Awful experience, actually ruined my Halloween. Didn’t even get to see the park and now I’m down $100. Thanks USJ, you’re awful.

App won’t let me register tickets. Finally got them registered on family members phone, but then it wouldn’t allow us to access attraction timed entry e-tickets. Horrible experience!

Good

A very useful tool for a trip to USJ - the interactive map and eticket capture is great. Small criticisms, notifications are in Japanese even when the app is set to English language and would be good to search for specific food items, water fountains (mostly near toilets actually) etc. Also, if you ordered Studio Passes elsewhere, they may not scan immediately - so simply ignore error messages and try later on.

Jaws or Hollywood Dream

This is absolutely disgusting! Why do we have to chose and it said or jaws on such small writing. Such a scam! Then we had to wait 55 minutes just to go on the Hollywood Dream (we had an express pass) next time inform that!! Because we didn’t know that, also a family of 6 what we are this took away most of our time we could go explore universal studios but we have to wait in a line. But overall universal studios is fun I recommend coming here but just read the whole text when your at universal.

Not everything is English friendly. It’s better to use their website. For an app downloaded from an English App Store, would just make sense that everything has been translated into English. Not the case here.

★☆☆☆☆ United States · v7.2 · 22 May 2025

Barely useful

For the English-speaking user used to the ease of using Disney Resort apps, prepare yourself for incredible frustration. Ticketing for the park entry and express pass is not done through the app (even though you can scan these tickets?), and push notifications appear only in Japanese even if the app language is English. The app contains a decent map and up-to-date wait times for rides, but this seems like the bare minimum of functionality for a large amusement park app.

No Map?

Just wish when you selected park map it brought up a map of the park instead of listing the attractions or shops making you select one. Then only gives you where that place is without relation to where you are. If they pulled up a full map (like when you go into Super Nintendo land) I think it would be better.

Useful map and queue timers

App is only in Japanese but is still useful without any Japanese reading skills. The map shows your location in the park and selecting an attraction tells you the queue time estimate or next show time. Helped us navigate the park easily and pick where to go next based on queue times throughout the day. Would recommend giving it a try!
