Maui Revealed—Chosen as “New and Noteworthy” and "Whats Hot" on the iTunes App Store.

Never get lost with the Maui Revealed app. This app is the perfect companion to the Maui Revealed book or eBook. Nothing beats the reading experience of a book to plan your vacation, but while you are traveling, the Maui Revealed app combines the complete guidebook with an easy to use map that is always with you on your phone or tablet. The location-aware map was created by Andrew Doughty to go with the guidebook and it can show you the locations of the all the places in the guidebook. If you are using the app on a device with a GPS, the app can also show you where you are on the map and be used to guide you to your destinations.

The app can be used to look up guidebook information on the go. It provides a location-centric interface to the guidebook. With just two taps on the Map, "Locate Me" and "Whats Nearby?", the app will pull together a list of everything to do, see and eat wherever you are on the island. The text of the guidebook is searchable and lists of hotels and restaurants can be sorted by location, type, price and rating. The app has a "Smart" Table of Contents that previews guidebook ratings and shows you places you have marked as "Favorites". The Favorites list can help you plan and organize your days and make it easy to find the things you want to see and do when you are on the go.

Best-selling author and longtime Hawaii resident, Andrew Doughty, unlocks the secrets of an island so lush and diverse that many visitors never realize all that it has to offer. Explore with him as he reveals breathtaking trails, secluded beaches, pristine reefs, delicious places to eat, colorful craters, hidden waterfalls and so much more. Every restaurant, activity provider, business and resort is reviewed personally and anonymously. Every beach, trail and location has been evaluated through years of field research. This app, the book and a rental car are all you need to discover what makes Maui so exciting.

The Maui Revealed app covers it all—from the wind-swept top of Haleakala to the sparkling underwater reefs. This is the best investment you can make for your Maui vacation. Whether youre a first time visitor or a long time kamaaina, youll find out more about Maui from this app than from any other source.

Simply the Best

Weve bought the book for years; purchased a new one EVERY time the new edition came out. Invaluable! Nothing else comes close. We have lived on island and have Ohana living there now, but still use it extensively whenever we visit. We were thrilled when the app became available. Mahalo nui loa!

This app is making our trip exponentially better

Im on Maui right now and have been using the Maui Revealed book and app practically incessantly with great success. I mostly used the book in the planning stages, but am using the app a ton while we are on island. I love the interactive map with the Find Me feature. I could go on and on about how reliable the reviews have been, how spot-on the details are, but you will stop reading. The app has the entire book in it so if youre okay with staring at a small screen for long periods of time then just get the app. However, Im loving having both. Theyre cheap and will CHANGE your trip.

Waste of money!

This app is not user friendly and a big waste of money. Not sure if the other reviews are fake or not, but this app is not very good. The book is a good guide but this app is a weak accompaniment to it. Dont waste $7.99! I want my money back...

Author is funny

This app is great as a sidekick to the book when the book isnt there. My nephews kept repeating his funny lines after they read it prior to taking the trip "you can watch the geckos catch bugs by the bright light you crazy party animal you".

Love book, like app

I own multiple versions of the books. I fins them invaluable. Ive used the gps some, and like taking my iPad mini on hikes, exploring, shopping and more. Map and gps work great. Seems like the book is organized exceptionally well, app is pretty good. Wish the app sections flowed like the book, but everything is in the app. Just have to think game bit more when setting at home reading. On island? Just click on gps to find the close by stuff. Easier than hauling the book around, and love the gps.

OK, but two major flaws make the book better

The Maui Revealed app is an okay supplement to the book, but it cant replace it due to two major flaws. Flaw 1: I discovered to my extreme chagrin that the maps within the app completely lack the public beach access markings contained in the book. To me, this is one of the best features of Maui Revealed. To not include them in the app is a shocking fatal flaw. I had purchased the app so that I could leave the book at home, well, I still had to carry the book wherever I went. Flaw 2: Despite being extensively promoted in the book and the App Store as "GPS aware", the app is not. You must have a cell signal for the app to locate you. This means the app is no more helpful than the book when you are in the Haleakala crater as I was. Either stop making this claim, or provide instructions on how to make the device "GPS aware" when the user lacks a cell signal. With these flaws, I cant recommend the app, either as a stand-alone, or supplement to the book. Stick with the book, youll be much happier.

Waste of Money

I am a huge fan of the guidebook but agree with the other negative reviews above. I bought the app and found that I still needed the book. In fact, the app made me miss a few stops on the road to Hana. The gps listed how close stops were to my location, however the list would include stops that were behind me. Also did not take the curvy road into account and caused confusion on how far points of interest were. Buy the book and you will be fine. Maybe Wizard Publications will get their act together and make this app usable but until then stick with the book. I would even go so far as to suggest some of the positive reviews are fake.
