Thank u for honest reporting!
Although sometimes it’s nice to look at the events through rose colored glasses, CB takes them off for you.
Poor iPad support
This app is basically a blown up phone app but for an inexplicable reason they chose to not let it do landscape which makes me not even use it although the content on civil beat is far and away superior in journalism I end up with Hawaii news now simply because it landscapes.
Civil Beat is Great, but App needs work
Civil Beat is an awesome news and commentary site for Hawaii. But the app lags behind. They still have not released an iPad version after several years. Why? They no longer allow you to comment via the iOS app. Instead, you must go to the website. Why? Civil Beat, the news service, deserves a better app than this. They ARE worthy of it.
Love CB!
Mahalo CB for providing critical issues written by top notch writers who can be trusted for truthful, in-depth reporting.
Impressive
Surprisingly sharp writing offers a look into the Hawaii no one else discusses. As someone seriously thinking about relocating to Honolulu, I read this everyday. Hoping this platform can somehow thrive during this difficult time for local journalism.

Love your on the spot stories. Lee Cataluna especially
Great News Source
If this app would orient to landscape, I would give it 5 stars. I love their news coverage and their editorials are bang on target.
General bug fixes and performance improvements.
