  1. I wish this message could go directly to Governor Ige because he’s an absolute IDIOT! Quit trying to control others & instill fear for your own political gain… and contact tracing…. REALLY!?!? Everyone should leave their phones in their condo/hotel/or home and live their FREE freaking life, go enjoy all the fun & beautiful places Maui has to offer! And shove your contact tracing app Ige!

  2. We don’t have a smartphone and are reluctant to purchase both the phone and the service so that we have a tracking device. We have been vaccinated and we wonder how the maui government enforces the carrying of the phone with you. Couldn’t you just leave it in your room or your car?

  3. Appreciate your continued reporting on this issue. Has the Mayor explained why this app is mandatory for visitors but not for residents? The research has shown that the latest surge has little to do with tourists, so what’s the explanation for the uneven treatment?

  4. It’s not working on the mainland, what makes the Mayor think it’s going to work here? Tourism is not the problem, it’s Island life. People like to be together. People are sick of being told how to live their lives. SO this result is that people are now ignoring the Mayor and living their lives. An app is just a tracking device. No one what’s the government tracking them.
