Shaka Guide App Tips to Make Your Adventure Smoother

Shaka Guide isn’t just a GPS — it’s your local friend riding shotgun, making sure you don’t miss the good stuff.
And like any good friend, we’ve got a few tricks up our sleeve to make your trip easier, smoother, and way more fun.
Here are some handy tips to get the most out of your adventure:
Quick App Features You’ll Love:
- Search 🔎: Find stops, highlights, or narration, then get directions in a snap.
- Settings ⚙️: Open the map legend, restart your tour, contact support, or toggle background music.
- Map Marker ↗️: Center the map on your location or switch the orientation.
- Music 🎵: Turn background music on or off whenever you like.
- On the map screen, swipe up on the bottom window to see all stops and highlights in list view.
On-the-Road Tips:
- Save battery: Switch the tour OFF while you’re parked at stops.
- Check your audio: After breaks, tap play on any stop to test. If you hear nothing, force-quit other apps and reopen Shaka Guide.
- Using Apple CarPlay? If it freezes, a quick restart of your phone, car, and CarPlay connection usually does the trick.
- Spotting ✪ on the map? Those are highlights — optional gems we recommend. Explore them if you’ve got time, then hop back on route.
With these tips in your back pocket, you’ll spend less time fiddling with your phone and more time soaking up the views, stories, and surprises along the way.
Remember — the app is here to guide you, but the real adventure is what you make of it. So get out there, explore, and let the island work its magic.
