About 1/2 are not working. ### 2/5 — Check in/out *2025-12-10, version 2025.241.0* I have deleted and redownloaded this app about a dozen times trying to get it to let me check in or out but I get nowhere. I’ve been having to use someone else’s phone with the app to be able to do it. Not sure if it’s an issue with the app on apple or what but it’s driving me insane. If they get that fixed the app would be great. ### 3/5 — Website crashed *2025-04-22, version 2024.228.0* Just got the app, it works well for the most part. My only issue I’ve come across yet is when I get taken to the website through the app, and it asks if I was to certify or edit my information that’s saved, it crashes the website no matter what option I choose. Definitely needs to be looked at. ### 1/5 — Very frustrating *2024-08-09, version 2024.226.0* I wish there was just a sign in sheet instead because it takes you to an old website that forces you to confirm information every login, and checking in and out of locations works only half of the time. All other app features also just take you to the government website. Only good thing is the QR code for your tags and licenses can be printed out and kept in a dry bag. I don’t enjoy using the app and I would strongly urge the government to place physical sign in sheets on boards leading into these areas as an alternative at the very least. ### 1/5 — Walmart License *2024-02-20, version 2023.219.2* I bought a fishing license from Walmart, but guess what? The app does not recognize it. I tried to buy a durable card, and put it into the app, so the QR code would work, but the app and the website don't track records apparently. I have the KDWP number as well, and they can't do anything. ### 1/5 — Junk *2023-09-17, version 2023.218.1* This whole app is junk so so slow and then it freezes. Bring back the waterproof green licenses. Making it difficult for everyone ### 2/5 — Can’t choose to renew existing license, but Android users can! *2023-07-09, version 2023.217.0* If I’m logged into the app and able to see my licenses, why don’t Apple users have the option to renew through the app? There’s a whole screen available to Android users that Apple users don’t get. ### 1/5 — Charged for nothing *2023-06-19, version 2023.217.0* i was charged 40 dollars and haven’t even attempted to buy anything on the app. How do i contact someone for my money back? ### 1/5 — Junk! *2023-05-30, version 2023.217.0* Won’t let me download app on my iPhone! ### 1/5 — Unable to submit Turkey Harvest Report *2023-05-21, version 2023.217.0* I was unable to submit spring turkey harvest report out in the field. Restarted app and phone still didn’t work. Also selected to allow to track me and didn’t auto fill unit or county on form. Finally able to submit after home a couple hours later. ### 1/5 — Cannot log in *2023-05-02, version 2023.217.0* App will not accept my date of birth. The auto fill is backwards. It adds the day month then year and spell out the month. Form is requesting month, day then year. To be added numerically. The app will not allow this ### 1/5 — Garbage *2023-05-01, version 2023.217.0* Downloaded to renew boat registration. App glitches and crashes. Can’t certify my information because it freezes so it is just a frustrating waste of time. Apparently the state of KS hired 5 year olds to code one of the simplest apps on the App Store. Glad they used my tax dollars for this. Uninstalling… ### 2/5 — Turkey Tag *2023-04-16, version 2023.217.0* Trying to buy a Turkey Tag through this app. The link to “buy licenses, permits & tags” does not work. ### 1/5 — Junk after update *2023-04-16, version 2023.217.0* Updated this go outdoors ks app a couple days ago. Haven’t been able to open it since, I have uninstalled it twice now as well as resetting my phone several times. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — No fishing support *2026-06-28, version 2025.245.1* All the options for boating and hunting work fine but anything with fishing (regulations or atlas) constantly show server errors! what’s the point of having the app if it doesn’t even give you the things you specifically need it for? Are there other apps instead that will give the regulations and maybe even fish identifications that works better than this app? ### 1/5 — Worst app ever *2026-05-31, version 2025.245.1* This app is a Joke. Whoever designed this app deserves to be jobless ### 1/5 — Worthless. Try again *2026-05-31, version 2025.245.1* Even at 1 star, this app is overrated. Crashes every time I try to open it. Completely unreliable. ### 1/5 — Dysfunctional app *2026-04-19, version 2025.245.1* No wonder the app has such a poor rating. I installed it and every time I try to open it, it immediately crashes. Sounds like the same issue for the last several years. I’ll try installing it again in a few years. Maybe they’ll have it figured out by then… ### 1/5 — App support? *2026-03-11, version 2025.245.1* App won’t stay open, it stars to open and shuts down in a half second. It just started doing this. Never had issues in the past but now it’s worthless.. clicked on app support and it takes me to ksdw website. ### 1/5 — Worthless. Try again *2026-02-04, version 2025.241.0* Even at 1 star, this app is overrated. Crashes every time I try to open it. Completely unreliable. ### 1/5 — BAD APP *2025-12-13, version 2025.241.0* Don’t waste your time ### 1/5 — Unreliable trash *2025-12-10, version 2025.241.0* Cannot check in to public hunting. App keeps crashing. Asks you to select game but does not give any options. Then crashes again. ### 1/5 — Expected *2025-11-21, version 2025.241.0* Leave it to KS to make something so simple so impossible. ### 1/5 — Awful *2024-09-02, version 2024.226.0* So far, I can only get small portions of the app to open. Even the Sunrise/Sunset opens, it’s 200-300 miles off. The hunting seasons won’t open, and although it did once, it was only ducks. I couldn’t find pheasant or anything else. App support won’t open. Apparently they need to hire someone that knows how to build an app that works. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Amazing *2025-11-02, version 2025.241.0* I love how I don’t have to carry my license with me I can just pull up my app. ### 5/5 — No problems *2024-10-30, version 2024.228.0* Easy to navigate and has some helpful tools. ### 5/5 — Disregard the Poor Ratings *2023-03-17, version 1.5.0* I would really love for those that rated 1 star to try the app again. I’ve only used it a few months, but it works perfectly and is immensely useful. It has all the information you need in nicely organized sections. I also think a lot of the poor ratings stem from the hatred for E-Tags, which isn’t mandatory for hunting, and is only a small part of the app. For those that want a reliable, convenient resource and aren’t hung up on “the good old days,” this app will be perfect for you. For the rest of you, take it up with the Commission. ### 5/5 — Working Great Now *2022-12-02, version 1.4.0* Read some of the other reviews and was hesitant to use it. Gave it a shot and it was pretty straightforward for renewing my license. I was also able to add my children under my profile and update all of their licenses and tags in one shot! Seems like the bugs are worked out now. ### 5/5 — Didn’t have any problems *2022-11-16, version 1.3.0* I downloaded and use this app with no problems. Not sure about other user reviews, but no issues here. ### 5/5 — Super Convenient *2022-05-25, version 1.0.0* Easy to use and super convenient! ### 4/5 — Constant errors *2026-07-09, version 2025.245.1* When trying to view anything under fishing i keep getting error server not found. Had to download a third party app to see fishing forecasts. ### 4/5 — Will not locate my account *2023-04-25, version 2023.217.0* Update; not apps fault. After pulling up emails from state lic issued realized my last name was misspelled by one letter. Entered misspelled name and app worked as it should Been hunting Kansas for years This app is useless. Maybe because I’m non resident who knows. Old app would at least let me purchase lic to hunt. Geeeezzzz come on Kansas get with it ### 3/5 — Decent *2026-07-11, version 2025.245.1* Since I used to Missouri fishing app, their app shows fish species and where to fish! Kansas show them you can do that or even better!!! ### 3/5 — Repeated failure *2025-12-07, version 2025.241.0* Repeated failures when trying to check out. Still can’t check out from Lovewell area since Tuesday! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
