Pros and cons of Kauai Revealed 9th Edition app for iPhone and iPad
Kauai Revealed 9th Edition app good for
Im so cheap when it comes to apps. I literally never buy any. I broke down and bought this one and it was WELL worth it!!! This app along with the book version helped us explore the island and create our dream vacation. We did a ton of hikes they recommended and we were so impressed by the location abilities of this app. Get this app- you will get your use out of it on the first day!!!
Dont even think of coming To Hawaii without those "Revealed" guides. Get the latest version. You wont regret.
I purchased both the book and App and although they cover pretty much all the same information, the App is so quick, easy and user friendly to search for anything you want to do on Kauai, that I tended to reach for the App first. Loved how Andrew divided the book and App into 4 sections (north, south, east and west Kauai) so depending on what area you were staying in or travelling to that day, you have immediate access to all different categories instantly! Staying in Kapaa but want to find a beach on the west side to explore? Simple, just press the West side on the map icon, select beaches and presto! The written directions for everything are easy to follow plus you also have the GPS option at your finger tips! And the fact that you can use this App without wifi or cell service anywhere is fantastic! A must have! Without it I dont believe we would have found so many secluded beaches or hiking areas. Well done team!
Without any doubt a must have to find your way around on the Island!
The future of guides is available now in this app. Without it you will miss many of the gems that locals know and love. You can access the info even away from wifi or cell. Honest descriptions and clear maps are so useful.
Some bad moments
Aloha! Convenient details for dining, adventure and more. I borrowed the book and bought the app, 1 day in it has already guided me well! And you can send feedback directly back from the app.
This App points out a "speed trap" at 15 MPH a School Zone. All school zones in my area the speed limit is posted at 25 MPH. My company would view this as reckless driving and I would have lost my job..
Just used this app for a week on Kauai and found many spots to see and great places to eat. The descriptions were accurate. The best feature is finding stuff nearby by clicking on the map. It was easy to use and when I found a glitch, I emailed the developers and they responded with the solution in less than a day. The only thing that would improve this app is to show things that you have marked as favorites on the map, so that if you are headed to a town, you could see at a glance if theres a place you marked ahead of time. We didnt have the print version, but I saw that it was very similar when I got to see an older copy. An incredible amount of info in one app. I was out data for the month and I was still able to use the "locate me" function. With the App Store iCloud family share, both my girlfriend and I could download it to our phones. Great app. I hesitated to spend 7.99 but glad I did. Thats less than I spent on a breakfast sandwich on the island.
Highly recommend this app for all visiting Kauai...especially for the first time and more especially for all of those that are used to holding their lifeline (smartphone) in their hands at all times...
even if your on vacation!! Its extremely helpful to research whats around in a moments notice. Once you spot a FAVORITE it marks a star on your map and this makes it easier not to miss anything.
I don’t normally write reviews but thought I would after getting back from two weeks in Kauai. I bought the app after reading about it in the book. From my point of view the app is far easier to use than trying to flip through the book to find the page you are looking for. I found the most useful part of the app was getting directions to a location you wanted to visit. Also trying to locate and stay on un-mark trails was a breeze with the built in GPS function and the map with the app. While there are limited details, I found the trails and roads to be spot on with the map. The app allowed us to find some remote vistas that we would have never found on our own. It would be great if there was a more detail with the map so that you could judge judge distances and even some basic elevations.
This app will not load onto my phone. I tried and tried. Used different wifis with same result.
IPhone 6.
I leave the island tomorrow. Refund please
