Can you use both Das and Genie?

How Does DAS Work with Disney Genie? Genie still operates the same way as before with being able to receive return times equal to the standby wait. You do not need to purchase Genie+ or individual selections to utilize DAS. Any ride with a standby wait time is eligible for DAS return times.

The DAS pass isn't an express pass like Genie + is, you will be given a return time based on the actual standby wait time. So you will need Genie + if you want to get on rides quicker. My friend qualifies for DAS and we did an October trip without it (the weekend of Halloween though) and it really wasn't great.

DAS does not require any additional purchase with the Disney Genie+ system. Any attraction with a standby queue can issue DAS return times. Only certain attractions are available for pre-arrival Advance Selections, but all attractions are available day-of.

This service works by providing guests with a return time for rides that is equal to the current standby time. So for example, if Seven Dwarfs Mine Train has a 60-minute wait time then the DAS user will return to the attraction in 60 minutes and then will use the Lightning Lane to experience the ride.

You can have up to 6 people added to your account. That includes the person needing the DAS plus 5 more. If you have more than that in your party, speak with Guest Relations. They may be able to accommodate you.
