Revealed Travel Guides for Negative User Reviews

✓ Needs work.Has potential, but not as good as the older app, or the book..SwrgfyhVersion: Revealed Travel Guides - Hawaii & Las Vegas 2.0

✓ Hawaii informationWhen I searched for specific information about things we wanted to do the app didn’t give specific details like address, cost, how to access, etc…..Mildred skyVersion: Revealed Travel Guides - Hawaii ; Las Vegas

✓ Not as helpful as expectedI purchased the Hawaii Revealed app to plan my vacation to Hawaii. The app broke just before I was to leave on the trip and the company gave me this app as a replacement. I found the information hard to follow as we were trying to navigate to places. Sometimes way too much detail was provided, making it difficult to find key information in a hurry. At other times key detail were missing or out of date. It also wasn’t organized as I would use it. Example there is information about Waimea Canyon state parks but you have to go to hikes to find info on hiking trails in the park which are listed by name and not by their location in the park. I found it frustrating..PrschiesVersion: Revealed Travel Guides - 2

✓ Logged me out and won’t let me log in againWorked great for a couple of days after paying for it, then it logged me out and won’t let me log back in, so now I’ll pay twice for it using a different email address. Good business model for them I guess..DgoodspeedVersion: Revealed Travel Guides - 2

✓ The jury is still out….Initially had some problems but they seem to be okay now. Will have to wait until we actually use it on the islands and see how helpful it is. We’ll probably take along our books just in case…..Not happy….yetVersion: Revealed Travel Guides - 2

✓ The free app is uselessI own the book and it keeps telling to use the app. I downloaded the app but can’t access anything without upgrading. It said “try it for free”, yet that doesn’t go anywhere. Why have the free version at all? Disappointed and leaving for Oahu in three days..NH escapeVersion: 6.5.0

✓ Disabled prior app without transferring subscriptionsThis replaced the prior app which is GREAT except the subscription didn’t transfer and old app no longer works. I paid 17.99 on 3/5 for the Hawaii content and cannot access in old app anymore and if I want to use new app new subscription. I love the content but boooooo for not taking care of existing customers!.MellabethVersion: Revealed Travel Guides - 2

✓ Don’t UseVery disappointed hard to use, each bit of information requires further payment. Most expensive and did not use! Luckily we had downloaded GuideAlong formerly GyPSy Guide which was very easy to use!.SBC from MOVersion: 6.11.1

✓ I’m confused, (but feeling better)I just paid $29 for a year subscription Hawaii Revealed. When I opened it up it asked if I wanted to use the new app. So I downloaded it , signed in and I was asked to pay another $30 to to access the the important stuff?! The Developer contacted me and gave me full access to their new app. I’m still a little confused as to why both apps are there. We are heading to Oahu next week, so I’ll have a better idea of the new app..DanRHVersion: 5.10.10

✓ Great books, poor appI’ve loved the Revealed books for 20 years, but I have to admit that the app loaded with similar information is a poor replacement. Maps would be a useful feature, but only a very small number of reviewed locations are clickable. Even for those, they don’t show on the map until you zoom way in. The app clearly uses Apple/google maps, so why are only reviewed locations clickable? And why can’t I choose to view both beaches and sights? I feel swindled out of $12. Thankfully, I remembered to cancel the subscription before it auto-renewed..DuckieSteveVersion: 5.10.10

✓ Not useable offlineThis appears to be the companion app to Andrew Doughty’s travel guides for Hawaii. Those books often refer to the GPS maps available in the app. But even if you pay for and download the data, when you are offline, you can’t access any map info. Which makes it worthless. To make it even worse, even the hike descriptions are not accessible when offline. Only certain commercial services remain in offline mode. Meaning basically only the ads. Buy the book, skip the app..Meandering hikerVersion: Revealed Travel Guides - 2

✓ Good info but not user-friendlyThe book is great, the driving app is fantastic, but I was disappointed in the app. I felt like I was spending way too much time trying to find things, and it was not at all intuitive. It’s very frustrating to be somewhere, whether the side of the road or the hotel room, looking for something you know You saw but can’t find it. I gave up after 3 days. Save your money. It’s not worth it.Todd 2000Version: 6.11.1

✓ Doesn’t work without WiFiApp is not working on cellular data—even checked that it didn’t somehow come packaged with cellular toggled off (if doesn’t). I’ve tried multiple locations, all with excellent 5G cell service, and every other app works but not this one. Especially disappointing considering it’s already expensive (and wasn’t included with the book purchase), and now there’s zero incentive to buy a subscription or take a chance on a driving tour app. Deleted. Update: Developer responded but instead of asking why the latest version of the app doesn’t work with 5G / sans WiFi (not in a remote spot so it ought to, like every other app out there), they advised unnecessarily downloading a lot of content and filling up my phone to access the whole package of information offline. Please just fix the app so it works with 5G instead of disagreeing with reported user experience. It appears to be a bug with this latest version. Less than one star and still deleted..MusikbitteVersion: 6.5.0

✓ Oahu cannot be selected on iPadThe formatting of the app for selecting the location will not allow me to select Oahu. It’s the last location on the list and there is no way to select it now that I bought the app. When I was using the free version I could select Oahu. Please fix this ASAP. It should be an easy fix. Oahu is the last location on the list in the app for iPhone and it allows me to select it. I wish it worked on the iPad. Thanks!.TravrlinmanVersion: Revealed Travel Guides - 2

✓ A travel planing app the never asks WHEN you want to travelFrom the description I assumed that this app would help me fill in the holes in my Honolulu itinerary. So far, I am underwhelmed with that capability. It would be cool if the app tracked actual dates vs. Day 1 … Day n. That way if I added an event on a day that the venue was closed, the app could give me a warning note. It could also offer advice like “you have selected venue X on a Friday night. Consider YYY for a smaller crowd.” That’s the kind of context sensitive advice I need..Missing game againVersion: Revealed Travel Guides - Hawaii & Las Vegas 2.0

✓ User Interface Design is poorWant to find beaches on a map that you can snorkel in by your area? Look at the book. I tried multiple times to find this info and to ask how to do this and never could get to an email. Travel to Hawaii yearly and this actively detracts from the experience. And now with monthly charges instead of annual? Not good..Huruta23Version: 6.5.0

✓ BewareThis is a scam. It’s basically a collection of useless ads for local businesses and attractions. And, I signed up for a one-time purchase, for one month, and it keeps renewing despite my attempts to cancel. Apple is no help resolving this either..RfjiyfcVersion: 6.11.1

✓ Big island version of the app is lackingThis big island version is barely populated. Based on how great the book is, I had expected a much better app. Sorely lacking..KatiyonceVersion: 5.10.10
