Great idea - poor execution
I love that I can access the regs and get current updates. I love that they try to provide all the information in an app.
But it crashes every time I try to submit a harvest report. I now have an empty report for a day I didn’t fish sitting in it that I can’t do anything with because it crashes every time I try to edit it.
Same with any of the maps. I get an error or the app crashes. Fix the multitude of bugs and crashes and it will be a great app.Show lesssquirreloncoffee
Not commercial fishing friendly
I was hoping that it would be useful to hobby fishermen and career fishermen alike, but was disappointed when I used it. I would like to see commercial announcements, and regs, my permit card (in case it gets dropped), etc.
Probably better if they made a separate app for commercial, unless they could have the information clearly separated on the same app. Seemed like it was quite handy for the sport guys though.Show lessAids/HIV virus
Wish I could use this app…
…but unfortunately when I created my ADFG account years ago on a desktop computer, I set it to sign in with Google, and I can’t sign into the phone app with Google. Sure would be nice to be able to access my license through the app in case I accidentally leave my wallet it my vehicle. Rating the app a 3 because my husband loves it (5) but it’s useless for me (1).Show lessSnow Biscuit

Sorry for the inconveniences you're having. If you call the Help Desk they can get you set up with a myADFG sign in instead of a social account. 907-465-2376 or email adfg.license@alaska.govDoesn’t Work
Seems intuitive and like a good idea, but it doesn’t work. It won’t import my fishing & hunting license at all. Giving it 2 stars because there’s still some useful information you can access, but other than that, it doesn’t work on an iPhone 15 pro max running iOS 17.5.Anonymous907GS

Sorry for the issues you're having. If you contact the licensing team they can assist you with attaching your license to your profile. adfg.license@alaska.gov or 907-465-2376.Can’t sign in with google on this app
I can’t sign in because I use google to login to myADF&G on my computer. The app doesn’t give this option on an iPhone.
Update;
ADF&G reached out and fixed the problem for me. It is a common problem that they deal with all the time.RGWII1954

Hi, we are sorry that you are struggling to sign in! We are working to improve our sign in process, but in the meantime, you can always email us at dfg.das.licensehelp@alaska.gov and we will help you with your issue!I legitimately love this app
I know I rated it 4 stars, and I’ll get into why, but I legitimately love this app. I love that the troopers count the app as proof of a license when fishing and dipnetting so you no longer need paper copies or duplicates or have to worry about them getting wet. As long as your phone has charge and turns on, you’re good to go. Same for the hunting license. My only complaint, really more of a hopeful suggestion, is that hunting draw tag information isn’t imported so you still need to carry paper tags for any hunts that aren’t general season tags. I’d love for that to be an added feature in the future. Aside from that, the ease of reporting fishing, dipnetting, and general season hunt results - even when offline - is so nice! Solid work by ADF&G.Show lessCaribouCrossing
Not worth your time.
I’ve tried multiple times to get this app to workover the last year plus and it’s a waste of time. First they ask you to login in using your my alaska or fish and game login. I use my Alaska and it tells me I need to create a fish and game login then it tells me I already have an account with fish and game and to use the recovery tool to login. Apparently it’s linked to my Facebook account and it’s clearly not. I would never link this to Facebook and when I try to log in through Facebook it tells me no account is registered under my name or Facebook. The only way I can get a fishing license online is if I sign in as a guest on the website. Seems like an absolute miss for someone who was born and raised in Alaska. As an Alaskan we should only need one login to access what we need to do through the states websites.Show lessCMK1425

Hello, Sorry for the struggle to sign in. We are working to improve the sign in process. For now you can call or email us so we can help you create/sign in your account. 907-465-2376 or adfg.license@alaska.govCan’t login
As noted by other reviewers, you can’t login in with myAlaska if this system finds you have a myADF&G account. When one enters the info to recover the myADF&G account the app hangs at the click of the Google button. A recommendation would be to have an option to skip login so as to at least have access to the regs. Another disappointing attempt by the state to bring itself up to speed with technology.Show lessDenaliPond

Hi, We would love to hear more about your struggles to sign in. You can reach us at: dfg.das.licensehelp@alaska.gov or (907) 465-2376. Your feedback is important to helping us build a better app!Never ending loop
I initially used Google to sign into their website, get my license, etc. Now that I have their app, but it’s incompatible with those login credentials. The “find account” tool indicates I have no account on file, but when I attempt to “create a new account” the app won’t allow me because it says I have an account on file and I’m redirected to sign in. A fix for this would be nice!Show lessloop 2022

You can only use the Google login through the computer. The app will only take a login for MyADFG or myAlaska. Please contact us and we can help you get a MyADFG account to login to the app 907-465-2376 or e-mail us at adfg.license@alaska.gov
