Car locator, a complimentary feature presented by State farm, will use location technology to find and save your parking details. It is best used when guests have location services, Bluetooth and notifications enabled on their mobile devices, Disney said.

Guests can enter the information in the app or have it filled in for them if they enable location permissions on their device, according to Disney.

The feature will be available at all Walt Disney World theme parks, Disney Springs, Disney water parks and ESPN Wide World of Sports.
