## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — App disappears

*2024-10-29*

Can’t open the app. When I click on it goes to my Home Screen

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2017-10-14*

Very disappointed with this simple app. There’s a lot of bugs, it crashes a lot when switching from one section to another.

### 1/5 — Behind the times

*2017-09-29*

Needs an update! Maui is sorely lacking in a reliable source for breaking news. Maui Times could boost subscribers if they had better service and filled this void

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work with iOS 11

*2017-09-20*

Please update

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2016-12-16*

Worst news app ever! Dont waste ur time. Too many bugs to list. Lots of blank articles, seems a work in progress. Then again, what do u expect for free. I expect it to at least work as advertised.

### 1/5 — Off line

*2016-10-09*

Has not worked "error with server" since ios10.

### 1/5 — Shut down

*2016-10-09, version 1.2*

Used to work great, but it appears they've shut down the back end server.

This app shouldn't be in the store anymore.

### 1/5 — Failure

*2016-08-27*

Glitchy. Poor substitute for the already lacking periodical. Hasn't been updated in years. Unprofessional.

### 1/5 — Poor-like the paper

*2014-09-25*

Maui News is being hit up by budget cuts. I'm a paper subscriber and we get 2 or 3 reports a day from Maui News reporters. The rest come from AP feeds, etc.
The Online feed never seems to be updated. It's only a clone of the daily paper.
Honolulu Star Advertiser app at least updates news through the day. 
I only re subscribed to Maui News paper so my dog can carry her paper from the box to the house. When she is no longer with us, I will subscribe to online Star Advertiser since they have real news updated often.

### 1/5 — Maui on the go

*2013-10-07*

Downloaded the app. It won't let me register as a new user. And no info as why or what to do.....screen is blank......HELLO tech support!

## Most praised reviews (8 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2015-02-19, version 1.2*

Great app to follow Maui news on the Island and away! 5 stars!

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2012-12-11*

Great app! Love it, less paper!

### 4/5 — Please update!

*2017-10-04*

I can no longer get this on my phone. Please update for newer phones!!!!
I miss seeing the Maui news.

### 4/5 — Are you updating for iOS 11?

*2017-09-20*

Though not as good as mainstream media apps, I always have enjoyed using the app to keep up with what's going on in my 2nd home.  I would hate to see this app disappear when I'm forced to upgrade to iOS 11.  Please update it.

### 4/5 — Three Articles

*2015-07-30*

The app works well these days. I just wish we could have access to more that three articles per section.

### 3/5 — Please update!

*2017-06-27*

I like this app but it needs updating. IOS will not support it. Please update it

### 3/5 — Ok...

*2013-07-03*

Sometimes it crashes when I'm switching sections.  Not the most up to date either.  Maui now mobile web has better current bulletins and notices

### 2/5 — What happened?

*2023-11-11*

I’ve been using this app to read the Maui news daily for years. Suddenly, I try to open and it just -doesn’t! I deleted the app and reloaded twice and same thing. Hope it’s a temporary glitch.
