App stinks

Cheapest option to order birth certificate. Unable to verify my entity through the app? I’ve answered all of the personal questions correctly. What a shame.

Worthless

You could not find a more useless app if you tried. You get the renewal application in the mail and it has all of your info on it, you plug it into the app to renew your plates and it can’t find your vehicle no matter what search criteria you plug into it, not with the pin that they send you, not with your license plate number, not your VIN. EVEN THOUGH YOU ARE USING THE EXACT DATA THAT THEY HAVE ON FILE.

It’s all so tiresome

Does NOT allow grandchildren to request birth certificates for their grandparents. KS considers grandchildren to be immediate family. Why is this not included? Now I will have to order by mail or VitalChek. I need these records for citizenship. My grandma is going senile so she cannot find her birth certificate. Let alone manage requesting it herself.

Likewise this app does not allow people to obtain pre 1940 birth certificates. Even though those dates are not impacted by Kansas’ draconian legislation. Useless.

Simply does not open

I am very supportive of the idea of iKan, and I love using on it on the computer. Unfortunately the app is required to request vital documents. On iOS 26.5 the app opens to “request could not be processed” error, and no other action is available.
