Well-known apps like Duolingo, Babbel or Rosetta Stone offer no Hawaiian courses, but there are other apps for learning Hawaiian that are just as good.
Overview of the Hawaiian Language:
Hawaiian has about 1000 native speakers and about 10-20 thousand people are fluent in it as a second language.
It belongs to the Austronesian language family, which stretches from Madagascar across Indonesia and New Zealand to Hawaii.
The Hawaiian language is notable for having only 13 letters: 5 vowels and 8 consonants. That is one of the shortest alphabets in the world.
There has been a renaissance of the Hawaiian language for several decades now and targeted efforts are being made to preserve the language.
Now let's take a look at the apps, software and online courses that you can use to learn Hawaiian. The biggest advantage of such learning apps is that they are much cheaper than traditional language courses.
Cudoo: Hawaiian Course
Online Learning with Certificates
Systems: Online Access (PC, Mac, smartphones)
Content: Hawaiian video lessons and quiz tests
Prices: USD 12.99 (one course), USD 24.99 (4-7 courses bundle)
Overall Value: 
Cudoo is a kind of online university that offers courses with certificates on different topics.
This includes language courses for 160 languages. These are all beginner courses (CEFR level A1 and A2).
For each language there are 1-10 courses and each course has 20-40 lessons.
The lessons each include a short video with new vocabulary and there are short quiz questions below the video.
Summary: The videos are well made, so especially for smaller languages these courses are a good start.

Mango Hawaiian App
Includes Grammar
Systems: Android and iOS Apps, Online Version
Content: Hawaiian lessons with native speaker audio, grammar, culture
Prices: USD 7.99 (1 month), USD 80 (1 year),
USD 18 (1 month and 70 languages), USD 180
(1 year and 70 languages)
Overall Value:
The Mango Languages App offers 70 languages, including Hawaiian.
This app also has some grammar lessons and cultural explanations. The explanations in English are all recorded and well done.
However, the number of lessons for learning Hawaiian is quite small, which means that this app is only suitable for absolute beginners.
There are no exercises, except for the repeated vocabulary tests.
You can also record your own pronunciation in the app and compare it with the recording of a native speaker.
Summary: Good quality, but not much vocabulary. Only for absolute Hawaiian beginners.
Drops Hawaiian App
Alternative to Babbel and Duolingo
Systems: Android App, iPhone App, Online Version (PC and Mac)
Content: Hawaiian lessons with native speaker audio, vocabulary trainer
Prices: USD 13.30 (1 month), USD 72 (12 months),
USD 164 (unlimited)
Overall Value: 
The Language Drops app is most notable for having 47 target languages and 40 source languages, similar to Mondly.
You can learn about 3000 Hawaiian words and phrases with this app. However, there are hardly any exercises, except for introducing new Hawaiian words and matching these words to pictures.
You can choose from which topics you want to learn new Hawaiian words and at what skill level you want to learn (whether you know the language somewhat).
If you want to try the app for free for two weeks you have to provide your payment information and then cancel it.
The "deal" you get in the app is more than 3 times as expensive as when you click "Get Premium" on the website (USD 38 per month instead of USD 13.30 per month).
Summary: No variety, no grammar and only 3000 words. Does not justify the higher price, even if you get access to all languages.
Memrise Hawaiian App
App with User-Generated Lessons
Systems: Android App, iPhone App, Online-Version (PC and Mac)
Content: Hawaiian lessons and vocabulary trainer with native speaker audio, grammar
Prices: USD 8,99 (1 month), USD 60 (12 months), USD 110 (unlimited)
Overall Value:
With the Memrise App you can learn over 90 languages.
This includes even very small languages - however, in such cases the language courses are often limited to just a few lessons.
One special feature of the Memrise learning app is the large number of lessons created by users (native speakers).
The quality of these lessons varies greatly though. For example, only the basic forms of verbs are usually taught, without the conjugations. Some languages also do not have an audio recording of the words at all.
Another good idea of the Memrise app are the user-generated tips and mnemonics for each word to help you memorize them.
Summary: User-generated lessons are a good idea. In practice, the quality of the lessons leaves a lot be desired.
Instant Immersion: Hawaiian
Learning Software for Download
Systems: PC and Mac
Suitable for: Beginners and intermediate learners, travel vocabulary, business
Content: Hawaiian vocabulary lessons and exercises
Prices: USD 35 (Level 1), USD 55 (Level 1-3)
Overall Value: 
The Instant Immersion Hawaiian learning software is available for download only for PCs and Macs.
According to the vendor, this software is supposed to be "as good as Rosetta Stone", but much cheaper because less money is spent on advertising.
Unfortunately, this promise cannot hold.
The software interface is chaotic and all three "language levels" offer a chaotic mix of easy and difficult words.
Essentially, this software only introduces new Hawaiian vocabulary with native speaker audio and pictures, and then there are a few exercises.
Hawaiian grammar is not included at all.
Summary: Limited scope and bad interface. At least it is relatively cheap and there is a 90-day money-back guarantee.
Additional Ways To Learn Hawaiian Online:
Colanguage: Find Skype teachers
Overall Value: 
At Colanguage you can arrange face-to-face language lessons online via Skype with language teachers around the world (from $5-10 per hour).
In addition to using apps, it is definitely a good idea to also practice with native speakers in order to learn Hawaiian properly.
Tandem: Find a language exchange partner
Overall Value:
Instead of hiring teachers, you can also find people who are interested in a free language exchange online via Skype.
It is completely free of charge, but you have to act as a language teacher for the other person half of the time.
