### 4/5 — Barely worth it

*2026-04-05, version 2026.246.1*

The best part of being outdoors. Not having to carry paper. Thank you!

### 2/5 — Update doesn’t work on IPad

*2026-03-03, version 2026.246.0*

Ipad 9th Generation, IPadOS 26.3, app opens then immediately closes. Yesterday worked well. Restarted IPad, removed and reinstalled app, still no joy.

### 2/5 — App is SLOW

*2025-09-02, version 2025.240.0*

Multiple attempts to submit information, only was successful once to pull up my license. The App does not provide feedback that it even received the submission.

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2025-08-27, version 2025.240.0*

Very helpful and convenient

### 5/5 — Pretty good.

*2025-03-27, version 2025.234.0*

Maybe in a future update add the option to add your license cards to Apple Wallet. Please?

### 3/5 — Jumpy

*2024-05-14*

While viewing waters and selecting filters, and you try the back button, takes you to the Home Screen restarting my progress. If you decide to look up something in maps and try to go back to the app(it was kept open), it will take you to the Home Screen. Super annoying.

**Developer response:** Hi RobTdaho, thank you for your review. Can you please provide additional details so that we can better identify and resolve this specific issue? Please don't hesitate to give us a call at 1-800-554-8685 or send an e-mail to mobile@gooutdoorsidaho.com. Thank you! -Go Outdoors Mobile Support

### 5/5 — Great app

*2024-04-30, version 2024.222.0*

Has a lot to offer and easy to use.

### 1/5 — Frustrating Experience with this GoOutdoorsID App

*2023-12-02, version 2023.218.1*

I recently had an extremely frustrating experience with the Idaho GoOutdoorsID app while trying to purchase a hunting tag. The app's performance was abysmal, causing me to waste hours of my time and ultimately getting kicked out of the queue.

But the worst part came when I finally reached the purchasing stage. After enduring extremely long wait times, the app suddenly kicked me out of the queue (when it was redirecting me to the site), forcing me to start the entire process from scratch. This not only wasted my valuable time but also left me feeling utterly disappointed and let down by the app's unreliability.

Considering the importance of timely tag purchases for hunting enthusiasts like myself, this app's unreliability is simply unacceptable. It's disheartening to see how little consideration has been given to improving the app's performance and user interface, especially when technology has advanced significantly in recent years.

I sincerely hope that the GoOutdoorsID developers takes this feedback seriously and invests in revamping their app to provide a smoother, more efficient experience. As it stands, the current version of the app is an exercise in frustration and wasted time. I will never use this app again when purchasing licenses and tags

### 1/5 — Poorly designed app

*2023-12-02, version 2023.218.1*

Ever since the app was implemented, it has bad glitches with severe consequences. Again, it was my turn to buy my tag. Plenty in the que. Then , it says it is“redirecting “ me to another page. I assume its to select and purchase my tag. Nope. I get kicked off and sent to the back of the line. No tag. Again.  Happens to a lot of people.  I dont even want to give it one star.

### 1/5 — DO NOT USE

*2023-12-01, version 2023.218.1*

DO NOT USE THIS APP to buy tags. Just do it on the GoOutdoors website or in person.

I got a good spot in line this year, made it through the wait and all the way to the front. Got stuck on the part that says “thanks for waiting! You are being transferred to the purchasing page!” and instead it transferrred me alllllllll the way back to the end of the line and said “whoops, sorry about that. It’s been reported but please get back in line!”

It took 3 more attempts to finally get in (yes I waited in line 3 more times because of the same problem). By the time I got in not a single tag was left and my Idaho season was ruined. 

I’m angry, but mostly at myself for believing a state-funded mobile app might actually work. Silly me.
