### 2/5 — Bad link - Colorado

*2026-04-15, version 4.1.3*

The link for Prohibited Places takes you to SAFE STORAGE info. I see no way to report issues. Hopefully developers read these comments

### 2/5 — California

*2026-01-14, version 4.1.3*

Not accurate for California

### 5/5 — Genius App

*2025-07-19, version 4.1.1*

This is perfect if you want to make sure you’re always following the law when it comes to carrying your firearm

### 5/5 — Updated often and detailed

*2025-06-17, version 4.1.1*

Love this app. Have had it for a long time now. They do a great job of updating it and it is full of information.

### 3/5 — Needs updating

*2025-06-16, version 4.1.1*

Hasn’t been updated in over a year.  Not going to renew unless I’m sure it’s current

### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-05-11, version 4.1.1*

Great app everyone I show it too get it

### 3/5 — Date field not working

*2025-04-01, version 4.1.1*

The date field is not working under my carry states notes. First, the keyboard does not come up and secondly, even if you do a paste data is NOT retained.

### 5/5 — Informative

*2025-03-03, version 4.1.1*

All the information I need is here in one place, for a quick reference!

### 5/5 — State of the art app

*2025-02-21, version 4.1.1*

It doesn’t get better than this!

### 5/5 — Well worth the price

*2025-02-07, version 4.1.1*

The app is well worth your investment.  It is updated quickly and regularly, and the visuals quickly allow you to see your legal status.  The ability to drill down and read the state code sections provides you with actual data and information about the state and any prohibited activities or areas.

### 5/5 — Best $1.99 I have ever spent

*2025-01-31, version 4.1.1*

The is the best CCW app ever. Thank You 🙏🏼

### 5/5 — Excellent, no frills

*2024-12-04, version 4.1.1*

I have been looking for quite a while for a website that does what this app does. There are one or two, and none are both accurate and adequately designed.  

This app does everything I need.  If the UI feels a little outdated I can only assume that’s because all of the effort is being put into the outstanding  level of up to date information available in the app, and done so in the most usable way possible.  

Really well done app in every way that matters, I can’t say I want anything more.  Great work, I am happy to pay a few bucks every two years for this reliable and convenient guide

### 4/5 — Great, except.

*2024-10-31, version 4.1.1*

The app is great and it is my immediate go to for law updates and when I travel.

My only stiff is I am a NY state resident but more specifically NYC. As we all know NYC laws and permit restrictions etc are different from the rest of the state. I will there be an option in the near future to specifically show information pertaining to NYC? Otherwise I find that some of the information I’m shown for NY doesn’t necessarily align for my NYC permit specifically.

### 5/5 — Up to date !!

*2024-10-09, version 4.1.1*

Bought this app and the next day it had an update. The update for me was that NM no longer honors WV. Still the other apps including the WV atty general website says there is reciprocity. I called the WV Attorney General office and they checked and sure enough NM did drop WV. So, this app is way ahead of the uscca app as well as my own attorney general office. Highly recommend!!  We are heading through NM next week so this app pulled through for us.

### 5/5 — Subscription renewal help 🥇

*2024-08-18, version 4.1.1*

Recently renewed my subscription on my iPad and had an issue trying to have the renewed subscription register on my iPhone, contacted Customer Support and Ryan provided tremendous help.  He responded quickly and helped we work through my issue exchanging several emails all with thorough and detailed steps to identify and resolve my problem.  Hats off to CCW and their top notch Customer Support!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t do anything

*2026-07-22, version 4.1.3*

I could just Google everything this app does. Waste of money. Waste of space on phone.

### 1/5 — Recharged repeatedly

*2026-05-28, version 4.1.3*

No way to contact

### 1/5 — Terrible UI, out-of-date info

*2026-02-28, version 4.1.3*

Terrible UI, is missing many of the latest law updates that the NRA and handgunlaws.us report.

### 1/5 — Subscription👎🏼

*2025-12-03, version 4.1.3*

I guess that’s the new thing subscription for everything. That’s why I don’t buy apps anymore, I have subscription overload syndrome. Absolutely sick of it.

### 1/5 — Terrible UI

*2025-09-10, version 4.1.3*

Terrible UI, is missing many of the latest law updates that the NRA and handgunlaws.us report.

### 1/5 — Where’s the support?

*2024-07-17, version 4.1.1*

NOTE:
This is my second attempt to get you help. The first attempt was July 9, 2024, just after purchasing the app for the first time. Below are the details from my first attempt to contact you.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I just purchased the app for the first time ever, but received the following, “Subscription Expired“ error:

My account got charged, so why am I not getting the two years of the app before having to select renew?

I even tried to use the “Restore Existing Subscription“ option, and that failed.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Please fix this or I will request a refund from the Apple Store.

### 1/5 — Email support

*2024-04-03, version 4.1.1*

Can you provide an email address to contact for support? I’ve tried it the app and an error comes up. I’ve renewed my membership and on my devices it says it failed to restore when I try so search by my Apple ID email address. Thanks for the reply, unfortunately there is no feedback button on the developer homepage. Can you just reply. With the fix for the cloud sync issue?

I’ve edited this to zero stars….i got a reply go to your website and click feedback in order to get in touch and get this issue resolved. There is no feedback section on the website. Why is it so hard to contact someone to get the issue fixed?!

### 1/5 — Can't contact developer

*2024-02-14, version 4.0.15*

I've used this app for years on Android, so needless to say I purchased it on IOS recently as well. The initial purchase appears not to come with updates, and when I try and restore the purchase, it instructs me to email support. That'd be fine, but I just end up receiving an error when I select to email support. I can't find the developers contact information anywhere on their official website in order to contact them about this issue.

### 1/5 — Don’t get. It

*2023-12-23, version 4.0.15*

They will give no way to cancel and they will keep charging your card don’t get it it’s not 99 c a year every month

### 1/5 — Broken in biggest way

*2023-11-13, version 4.0.15*

Subscribed for $1.99 and downloaded. App immediately indicated “subscription expired”. There is a function to recover subscription and of course it fails. Emailed support but just “crickets” not even an auto-response.  Cannot retrieve updates so cannot trust information for something so critical as CCW. Save your two bucks.

### 5/5 — Excellent CCW App

*2026-06-20, version 4.1.3*

This app is fantastic! Easy to navigate and find laws regarding CC laws, as well as states with reciprocity. It is constantly updated with all court cases, whether ongoing, or decided. Thank you for the great app!

### 5/5 — Cheapest “ensurance” I can buy

*2026-05-21, version 4.1.3*

OK, so it’s not insurance but rather information that ensures I have the latest data. Extremely useful when it comes to interstate travel. Simply cannot go wrong for such a low cost investment.

### 5/5 — CCW 5 star review

*2026-05-14, version 4.1.3*

I travel through several states between Arizona and Illinois. Before I make the trip each time I review each state in CCW. Their information is always accurate and updated. I have confidence, for instance in Illinois, my concealed carry permit in Arizona gives me permission to carry my firearm loaded but only in my vehicle. Great app.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-04-20, version 4.1.3*

App has a lot of information that as gun owners we need to know. I did have one problem and Tech Support emailed me back. And solved the issue.

### 5/5 — Better safe than sorry

*2026-03-28, version 4.1.3*

When I travel I use CCW, and good judgment, to make sure I never have to see the inside of a cell.

### 5/5 — Informative/Helpful

*2026-03-15, version 4.1.3*

All the information I need is here in one place, for a quick reference!
This app is very helpful when I travel!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-02-26, version 4.1.3*

This app is super convenient. I love this, to keep me out of trouble in other states. It’s super helpful to know what states honor my permit and what states do not.

### 5/5 — Best app on the market

*2026-02-21, version 4.1.3*

I get it. It’s a simple app, hard to screw that up. It’s just flat out excellent, great design, easy to use. Everything an app should be.

### 5/5 — Recreational Vehicle

*2025-12-14, version 4.1.3*

We travel a lot in our RV to and through many states. I check the CCW app before every trip.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2025-10-01, version 4.1.3*

Been using for many years. I travel up and down east coast and find that it’s updated with accurate information in a timely manner
