Ratings and reviews

A waste of time and money for us. Free preview looked good, which is why I chose this one. But the paid version was super annoying. As I learned too late, it is most common to start the R2H from the up-country, but for some reason my version assumed we were going the other direction, from Kipahulu. I knew not to do that, and drove to the correct starting point, but in the app the entire tour was backwards,with no way to remedy it.

Well worth the $5. This made the drive much easier. It alerts you to all the major sites you'd want to see, and doesn't mention any of the out of bounds sites many people illegally stop at. Plus my wife really enjoyed all the history about Hawaii. But the app seemed a little buggy. It didn't like when we came to a stop and I switched to the camera. When ever we opened up the app after a stop it wouldn't respond. And we'd end up closing and reopening the app to get it up and running.

Used it on a recent trip to Maui. Loaded the app, which now cost $6.99 instead of $5.00, on my Sony Tablet. It was useful when the audio worked but, unfortunately, the audio would randomly stop working. Therefore, you would pass a point of interests and no audio would play. The only way to get the audio back as to stop the app, start it again and find the spot that I missed. Of course when I started the app, it started from the beginning and NOT where it left off! This happen multiple times!
