This app is based on the 7th edition of the guidebook. This is the current edition.

Never get lost with the Maui Revealed app. This app is the perfect companion to the Maui Revealed book or eBook. Nothing beats the reading experience of a book to plan your vacation, but while you are traveling, the Maui Revealed app combines the complete guidebook with an easy to use map that is always with you on your phone or tablet. The location-aware map was created by Andrew Doughty to go with the guidebook and it can show you the locations of the all the places in the guidebook. If you are using the app on a device with a GPS, the app can also show you where you are on the map and be used to guide you to your destinations.

The app can be used to look up guidebook information on the go. It provides a location-centric interface to the guidebook. With just two taps on the Map, "Locate Me" and "Whats Nearby?", the app will pull together a list of everything to do, see and eat wherever you are on the island. The text of the guidebook is searchable and lists of hotels and restaurants can be sorted by location, type, price and rating. The app has a "Smart" Table of Contents that previews guidebook ratings and shows you places you have marked as "Favorites". The Favorites list can help you plan and organize your days and make it easy to find the things you want to see and do when you are on the go.

Best-selling author and longtime Hawaii resident, Andrew Doughty, unlocks the secrets of an island so lush and diverse that many visitors never realize all that it has to offer. Explore with him as he reveals breathtaking trails, secluded beaches, pristine reefs, delicious places to eat, colorful craters, hidden waterfalls and so much more. Every restaurant, activity provider, business and resort is reviewed personally and anonymously. Every beach, trail and location has been evaluated through years of field research. This app, the book and a rental car are all you need to discover what makes Maui so exciting.

The Maui Revealed app covers it all—from the wind-swept top of Haleakala to the sparkling underwater reefs. This is the best investment you can make for your Maui vacation. Whether youre a first time visitor or a long time kamaaina, youll find out more about Maui from this app than from any other source.

Pros and cons of Maui Revealed 7th Edition app for iPhone and iPad

Maui Revealed 7th Edition app good for

The app was a huge help on our recent trip to Maui. From finding restaurants to locating sights and attractions the app came through consistently. Well worth the cost.
Ive used this book on three Hawaii trips and this edition for Maui is really great. The ability to simply click from a listing into directions (especially for finding out if the way beaches!) made it so easy to find things and there are a few gems in this version that werent in the previous version.
We used this for our trips to Maui in 2013 & 2015. Just downloaded the 7th edition since we will be returning in 2017. Extremely helpful with suggestions both by location on island (South Maui, West Maui) and by category (dining, shopping). We had a guidebook as well but found we used the app much more often. The large island map and ability to tap around for more specific information was one of the best features. ~ Maui Girl Chapel Hill, NC
Got the printed book, which led me to finding the App. Its the perfect vacation-in-Maui companion. Whenever I was in a place anywhere on the island, or planning to go somewhere, all I had to do was touch the map and find out all the good things that were nearby. The associated reviews were articulate, insightful, funny, and useful. Became an integral part of our trip.
This app was recommended to me a few months ago. Not really excited about paying for something like this but based on my experience using it, dont know how I could have enjoyed Maui without it. Tons of research and unbelievable commentary on everything reviewed!! So well done!! After our first day (9-9-16), we literally did not go anywhere without first checking things out using this app!! There were a couple of places we went that were not on the app (i.e. Relish Oceanside) and it was miserable. You guys are the BOMB and did an UNBELIEVABLE job!!
My wife and I have been coming to Maui for many years and have tried various resources to better understand how to make the best use of our time, discover something new and confirm weve chosen "best bets" in the past. OK, there simply arent enough superlatives to describe the value of this app! We found the book in our condo and thankfully saw the reference to the app. Literally, everything in the book is in it! You must download this app as necessary items for your trip to paradise! Enjoy!!

Some bad moments

I like the guidebook a lot, but this app is worthless. First, the map wont let you zoom all the way, leaving out some major turns. Outside of cities or towns, the map does not even give the names of the roads. Also, the points of interest are not on the map, and you have to toggle back to the text to find them. Google maps is much better.
I used the 6th edition app last year and got this app for my trip this year. Same features with lots of new restaurants and things to do. Glad I got the new edition.
This is the first review of an app I have ever written and its just to say that if you go to Maui you need this app. I found the book more functional for browsing and planning, but for cruising the island this app (and the GPS function) was perfect. Get both.
I bought this app thinking it would provide easy access to recommended sights restaurants and other destinations, after using it I found it challenging and inconvenient. I would recommend not spending the $8 and use the trip advisor app, its a lot more informative and user friendly.
Well worth it! Only wish I would have known about this when we went to the big island. We wouldnt have spent so much time looking for everything!
Just spent a week in Maui and I cant tell you how useful this app was in helping us make decisions on what to do, where to eat, what beach to go to for swimming or snorkeling,even on selecting tours. I had purchased the book and debated on whether the app would be worth the extra money. Once we landed in Maui we barely touched the book. In some reviews people complained about it be difficult to use, but that was not my experience at all. It starts with an interactive map but you can also select from a menu of what you are interested in, dining, beaches, activities and so on. You are then taken to a page to select where you are looking and then given a list of all relevant content with the authors recommendations clearly noted. These recommendations did not fail us once, from beaches to restaurants to a snorkeling tour. We had good experiences at each recommended spot. Each review even has a quick link that brings up your map app to help you get where you want to go. If youre going to Maui just get this app!
