For iPad and iPod Users: It is essential to note that only Wi-Fi+Cellular models of the iPad are equipped with GPS capabilities. iPods lack built-in GPS functionality.

Regarding Cell Phone Coverage and Data Roaming: The Tour Guide functions seamlessly without cell phone coverage. Its GPS operates with high precision throughout Maui. International users can deactivate data roaming since a network connection is only necessary for map updates, which can be pre-cached prior to travel.

Review Feedback: Some users have reported issues with GPS or mapping functionality; this often occurs if the app is denied access to current location data. The recent version 1.2 includes clear notifications when GPS access has been disabled.

The Tour Guide extensively covers attractions along the Hana highway, providing recommendations on which sites to prioritize or avoid, particularly valuable for those with limited time in the area. Many attractions can be elusive without dedicated guidance—where this GPS Tour Guide truly excels.
