Latest revision doesn’t automatically show current date or location like old version did. Doesn’t update licenses without reloading entire app again. Needs to be a easier way to report issues. ### 2/5 — Offline access should be available *2024-11-20, version 2024.229.0* The last update definitely helped with the annoyance of having to re-login every time you hit the back button. Unfortunately, the ability to download and store the maps/boundary information is STILL not an option. This means before hunting we end up taking screenshots of the maps and then comparing them to the Garmin gps once we’re out hunting without enough signal to get the maps to work (or have “low signal” and using the online map drains the battery). Since the app came out the option to download and/or print a pdf version for each wma has become less and less available. Until one of these features is available, we will just continue to use the outdated pdfs we’ve printed or collected from info kiosks over the years and hope the boundaries haven’t been altered. ### 3/5 — Latest update is a flop *2024-10-25, version 2024.225.0* When I pull up the hunting season page it doesn’t show all the information on my phone screen without having to scroll right. And then when you click on a species the pop up window is also bigger than the screen width. ### 3/5 — Won’t work *2024-07-30, version 2024.225.0* App will not open on iPhone with new update ### 1/5 — Can’t add license *2023-11-10, version 2023.218.1* 2 months into deer season and I still can’t add my license on this app. Every time I click add license, the app just freezes. Please fix!! ### 1/5 — Not working *2023-10-27, version 2023.218.1* App will not let me add any of my licenses ### 3/5 — Would like to access license *2023-10-22, version 2023.218.1* The ease of use when completing a game check is great; however, once I completed the game check I was not able to access my license/tags from the app. Also would be nice to save license to “Apple wallet” so it’s available offline, since there are many places in the woods where there is no internet signal ### 1/5 — 10/08/23 3rd try to contact no reply. Legalities. *2023-10-08, version 2023.218.1* It would be nice to hear back. Trying to get name changed on license so I can legally without any worry fish. Please and thank you. ### 1/5 — Update *2023-10-06, version 2023.218.1* Downloaded update will not open up now. What can I do? ### 1/5 — Great....but! *2023-09-18, version 2023.218.1* I’ve been using the app for a couple years. Always has been simple and straightforward. Then I kept getting advise on it to update. Just to make the reminders go away I updated. It said it was compatible with my phone. Now it won’t open at all. I get a solid green screen for about 1/3 second, then it goes to my home screen. I tried deleting the app and reloading. Same result. Please fix this. Thanks. ### 2/5 — Quota login *2023-09-05, version 2023.218.1* Good app overall. However, it is annoying having to login every time you try to apply for a quota hunt, it should already be connected to your profile but, THE REAL PROBLEM IS HAVING TO RE-ENTER LOGIN INFO EVERY TIME YOU PRESS THE BACK BUTTON!!! ### 1/5 — Bugged as of 05/05/2023 *2023-05-05, version 4.0.0* The portion where you enter birthdate under “add a license” is bugged and won’t accept the format when the roll-wheeled scroll-bar date-of-birth selection is entered. Perhaps one might suggest using a traditional typing entry box/field. I can’t use this app with that issue ongoing, so I will raise the rating appropriately when it works. Thanks. ### 1/5 — Tried *2022-11-20, version 3.8.0* Will not download in my area anymore? :( ### 2/5 — iOS *2022-11-11, version 3.8.0* The interactive maps don’t work on apple iPhone. My friend has android phone and interactive maps works great. I called the help line number listed and spoke with a girl and she said delete app the re upload it. That didn’t change anything. ### 3/5 — Harvest History Results *2022-10-04, version 3.8.0* Harvest Results is absolutely horrible. Cannot filter per county. App is slow to respond. Last version was much easier to use. Please correct ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Won’t let me buy a license *2026-08-07, version 2026.249.0* I’ve been looking at the pending purchase screen for 30+ minutes ### 1/5 — Lost my Hunter’s Ed *2026-05-27, version 2026.249.0* I took my Hunter’s Ed course in 2019 through Georgia. It is now 2026, they have lost all records of my Hunter’s Ed course. I have now been hunting dozens of times, am now in the Army, but am finding myself taking the time and money to take another Hunter’s safety course. Cool. ### 1/5 — iPad user 2 *2026-05-01, version 2026.246.1* Immediately closes upon opening, deleted app and tried again. Same issue. ### 1/5 — Buggy And Terrible *2026-01-03, version 2025.242.0* Yikes, this app is basically just a walled-in version of the web page. I was unable to purchase a license after repeated tries. ### 1/5 — iPad User *2025-12-31, version 2025.242.0* App will not open, shuts down immediately after opening or freezes and doesn’t load. ### 1/5 — No seasons *2025-08-15, version 2025.238.0* It won’t show any seasons on the seasons claendar ### 1/5 — Lost data *2024-10-25, version 2024.225.0* Just updated lost my grandson and my wife on my list of license and can’t see harvest records now ### 1/5 — App update *2024-08-11, version 2024.225.0* New update will not open. Using iPhone 12 ver 15.2. Please fix before deer season starts. ### 1/5 — Worst app ever made *2024-06-19, version 2023.219.0* I could have made a better one in my sleep ### 1/5 — Issues *2024-01-21, version 2023.219.0* The app doesn’t let you use the continue bottom the privacy policy covers the bottom not allowing it to click it ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Downloading license to APP *2022-04-29, version 3.8.0* I downloaded the app and I wanted to check in a spring gobbler from the app but it would not let me do that until I download my license to the APP? I can’t figure out how to download download my license to the app? ### 5/5 — Tells me the correct time to find a deer/feeding periods *2018-11-21, version 2.7.0* It’s good to me. ### 5/5 — A very practical use for a hunting license! *2018-11-02, version 2.7.0* I like the concept and ease of it! No more digging in my pockets for my license or trying to keep up with an ink pen. ### 5/5 — Cool app *2017-04-15, version 2.0.1* So far it seems nice. Great that I can sync my fishing license to it instead of printing one out when I lose it. ### 5/5 — Awesome App for the Georgia Outdoorsman *2017-01-09, version 1.0.3* This app is easy to use and great for keeping up with your licenses. It stores a digital copy of your hunting/fishing licenses for easy access. You can even add multiple peoples license. It's also has gps mapping of many local boat ramps. One of the best features is the ability to log your game harvest. It is super easy to report your kill and it gives you an instant confirmation code. Overall great app! ### 5/5 — Great Resource! *2016-10-22, version 1.0.1* I'm able to navigate and find what I need and I enjoy the real time stats by county for harvest reporting. One question, why the need for hard copy of harvest reports anymore? Seems redundant now. Good Job! ### 4/5 — Sync issues *2025-03-22, version 2024.232.0* The app is mostly fine itself but the most important part of getting your license to sync and it doesn’t work is irritating ### 4/5 — Issue with update? *2024-11-07, version 2024.229.0* I have loved this app and been using it for a long time. For some reason, my feeding times, sunrise/sunset times in my Toolbox is showing only fish feeding times. I always had it show me deer feeding times. Did something change, or am I doing something wrong. ### 4/5 — Need ability to store license locally *2022-08-31, version 3.8.0* The app is very easy to use. I would give 5 stars but… If I was in a remote area with little or no internet, syncing a license for display is not going to work. Should be able to send to files area on phone just like insurance card. Also, the fishing areas seem to be outdated. Need to update locations with latest info ### 4/5 — Love it *2021-11-08, version 3.7.0* Love the app, but wasn’t working to submit a deer harvest on Nov 6 2021. I was able to go through all fields to select data, but after the last field was selected the app would close out. Tried several times. Had to go to the website to enter it. Never had a problem before. Not able to submit a issue with the app either so I am trying here. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
