### 4/5 — Map layers won’t work

*2026-02-01, version 1.3.8*

Great app, but the map layers stopped working

### 2/5 — The app needs updated

*2025-10-10, version 1.3.5*

I am writing this on October 11 2025 the version 1.3.5 still has last years out of state prices and doesn’t show the increase.

### 1/5 — Overstepped your bounds…

*2025-08-08, version 1.3.5*

App has become too obtrusive.

### 5/5 — Need an update!

*2025-08-05*

Hunting regulations are still posted for last year. I found the updated 25-26 regulations on your website, but the app should have the relevant information too.

### 5/5 — UPDATE!

*2025-07-30*

App is fairly easy to use, and incredibly convenient. However, it needs to be updated. As I write this on July 30th, 2025, the Ohio archery deer season is less than two months away. Ohio changed their hunting regulations this year, and the season dates vary every year. This information has yet to be made available in the form of an app update. You can still buy licenses and permits.

### 5/5 — Informative but needs updated

*2025-06-05*

The app makes it easy to get all the licenses and such that you would ever need. Also has critical information to stay legal while hunting and fishing. As of June 5 the app still doesn’t have the upcoming fall 2025 seasons in it along with any changes made to regulations.

### 1/5 — Pretty poor

*2025-04-08*

Had to download the app to get a fishing license. An hour later, I think I might have one. In the app I filled out the same information a couple of times in a wild assortment of drop down menus, spinners, I am not a robot, etc. Got an email with a link telling me to go online, but that didn’t work. Second email that arrived had a link where I filled out the information again multiple times and was able to print a paper copy. Wild ride to give the state 25 bucks.

### 5/5 — Good but plenty of potential

*2025-03-26*

Good app, has a couple small bugs, much more potential, pretty accurate!

### 4/5 — ADD TOPOS!!!!!!

*2025-01-25*

Please please please please please add topographical maps to main/public Ohio lakes in the map function of this app! I love the odnr website map and it’s very useful, but not mobile friendly. This could be a huge opportunity to make an update to your app. It would be awesome to also add important details to certain lakes and also spread awareness notes about endangered species, limits, etc.!

### 5/5 — Great App

*2024-07-31, version 1.3.2*

So easy.   Had my fishing license in minutes.  Wish all apps were this good.
