Honolulu Civil Beat

Although sometimes it’s nice to look at the events through rose colored glasses, CB takes them off for you.

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 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.

Mahalo CB for providing critical issues written by top notch writers who can be trusted for truthful, in-depth reporting.

Love your on the spot stories. Lee Cataluna especially

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.

we are fortunate to have journalism as good as cb in Hawaii. its one of the fundamental pre requisites of democracy and progress.

Without a doubt an excellent news source that offers good quality news that caters to people living in Hawaii.

I read every it morning. I particularly like Chad Blair’s political commentary.

Lack of a menu with true topic sections and archives makes the App less useful.
