Outdated

We have used this same companies guide for Kauai and loved it. Got it for Maui and it was worthless. Outdated and just made it more frustrating. We missed things and spent time looking for things that didn't exist.

Must have Maui app

Tried several similar apps for Maui and this was the best. It's the only one that supports background music play, although my iPhone 6 battery only lasted about 3 hours with the app running and music playing.

She's a bit bossy

Used this guide during our last trip to Maui. While driving the road to Hana the guide repeatedly reminded us about our time and which stops were best to make if our goal was to get to Hana and back. Unfortunately for us, we took the south road back, very treacherous. Not recommended by me or the guide.

Noice!

This app is slick. It tells you about your surroundings and where to find attractions. There are also a lot of historic references. No more guess work and wondering what’s about, the app makes exploring very easy and stress free. We’ve been to Maui several times but I think we discovered more on this trip than any previous. Mahalo!
