Meanings
Though the pictures reflect things of Hawai`i, one must look at the meaning of each word. Sometimes this app takes the second or 3rd meaning. For example, Hapa. In the Hawaiian dictionary the 1st meanings show: Portion, fragment, etc. all the way to english as “half.” The card shown in the app shows the meaning “Of Mixed Blood.” That is the 2nd meaning in the Hawaiian dictionary. Wehewehedotorg is the online dictionary for one to fact check the word and see where it falls; 1, 2, or 3, etc.

Very unhelpful
This whole app needs more work
Hawaiian App
The pictures are very nice & colorful, however, it would be more helpful if the pictures matched the word! Why wouldn’t these match? Also, instead of having to tap on an arrow to flip to the next word, you should be able to swipe right & left on the screen. This alone makes the app feel outdated. Most ppl need to hear the word in order to learn a language correctly so having a button to tap on would be great to hear a person pronounce the word or phrase. Hopefully you can update the app soon!

Finding a word to translate
This won’t open up for me. All I get is a random word & definition, but I can’t change the word. Pretty background but mott the what I’m looking for
Needs a search option
Just downloaded the app and there are lovely pictures behind each word or phrase. However, I’d like to be able to search for words…enter the English and the Hawaiian word is accessed, and vice-versa. Also, it would be helpful to have the words pronounced or the proper pronunciation written out as in a regular dictionary.
