Nothing in the app works, you try to select things and it goes nowhere. Totally useless. ### 1/5 — steals your money *2024-12-12, version 2.4.0* this app is a scam. You "buy" tickets but then they just expire so even if you have winning numbers it doesn't even work ### 1/5 — Terrible but potential *2024-04-19, version 2.4.0* The only thing this has going for it is you don’t have to go to the store for a ticket. All anyone wants to do is check their numbers to see if they won. If you buy a ticket in the app it’s like jumping through hoops to check. Everything else is fluff that’s also disorganized. ### 1/5 — not recommended *2024-04-04, version 2.3.0* terrible app for sure ### 1/5 — App doesn’t work after update *2023-11-11, version 2.3.0* This app is horribly slow and doesn’t work after update on iOS ### 1/5 — Garbage! *2023-08-13, version 2.3.0* I know a 4 year old that could make a better app! Seriously do not get this app unless you want to be irritated every single time you open it… ### 1/5 — Wishful winning! *2023-07-16, version 2.3.0* Would be nice if you could move the terms of service when clicking on buying something. They are too close together and you lose what you are shopping for if you accidentally click on terms of service. Instead of the tiny little box you are supposed to click on. Also if there was a way to save your pick numbers. If your subscription runs out you have to repick all your numbers. Very annoying. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2023-06-04, version 2.3.0* Used to work great now…app opens and instantly closes. ### 1/5 — Scam *2023-05-04, version 2.3.0* I win money and extra tickets and the app doesn’t account for it and faq sections says I can’t collect and blame it on computer…… what a scam. Def buying real physical tickets next time. ### 1/5 — Auto close issue not fixed *2022-10-16, version 2.2.0* I can’t even get to the main screen without it auto force closing. Please fix!! ### 1/5 — Terrrible *2022-09-11, version 2.1.0* This is one of the most frustrating apps I’ve even encountered. Freezes, kicks me out of account, all around slow. They need to update it with some online games and free spin to wins. They should take a look at Michigan’s app where you get free spins to win a chance at $5,000 every month. Among other prizes. Stop being greedy ND & update your app. ### 1/5 — Couldn’t make account *2022-08-18, version 2.1.0* Couldn’t make account it said incorrect social number ### 1/5 — Unbelievably horrible app. *2022-07-31, version 2.1.0* How is this possible in 2022? Wow, complete garbage. No way to check if you’ve won and no instructions on how to redeem winnings. ### 1/5 — Definitely a “local” App *2022-07-20, version 2.1.0* This could be great with some updates! Someone said it was more like a website from 2005 and I would have to agree. Games like subway surfer and angry birds are better than this actual Money win/lost app. There’s no option to stay logged in so you have to log back in every time you want to do anything and you have to rely on an email to tell you if you won or not and there’s not really a way to see which numbers won unless you go to your email and check your numbers and then go into the app and check the winning numbers which is pretty ridiculous. The App itself appears to focus more on “rewards points” than the actual lotto tickets. Because of what this app is and how much money the ND Lottery brings in, you’d think they could pay someone with the capabilities of making this what it needs to be. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — What a joke *2026-06-21, version 3.2.0* ND should be ashamed at who is working in this department. It takes a 1/2hr to find a back door just to create a password for the app. App is just as bad to navigate and move within. I’d rather get hit by a bus. Zero stars… waste of time and tax dollars. ### 1/5 — Crashes more than it works *2026-06-06, version 3.2.0* An unexpected error occurred. Review cannot load. Please try again later. Seriously, did no one check if the app worked before releasing it? ### 1/5 — Log in issues terrible *2026-05-25, version 3.2.0* Log in is terrible ### 1/5 — Garbage *2026-05-11, version 3.2.0* Can’t even upload identification for verification. Useless. ### 1/5 — Most messed up stuff *2026-05-02, version 3.1.0* Never seen an app that is so completely messed up, thought I was an idiot on the computer ### 1/5 — Barely functions *2025-12-26, version 3.1.0* This app, and really the entire lottery.nd.gov website load very poorly. Constantly getting the “something went wrong” screen since the redesign. Would be nice if it just worked. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2025-11-13, version 3.0.1* This new version is so terrible doesn’t work anymore ### 1/5 — Location needed??? *2025-10-03, version 3.0.1* App worked properly before now you need to know where I am in order to scan? Deleted! ### 1/5 — Update *2025-09-29, version 3.0.0* The recent update erased all of my payment info ### 1/5 — New updated app needs a lot of work *2025-09-29, version 3.0.0* The old app wasn’t perfect , but at least it functioned . This new updated version has a lot of glitches that need to be worked out . My old account was unusable and I had to create a whole new one - which is barely usable due to glitches with multi factor authentication, purchasing multiple tickets etc. I gave it a 1 Star because 0 wasn’t an option. It’d probably be easier just to buy tickets in a store . ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Never used the old app *2025-12-19, version 3.1.0* I really don’t have any complaints… yes it can lag here or there but it is not an inconvenience for me at all. I don’t see why this app has such poor reviews… In my opinion if you are part of the players club, this app is definitely worth a try. ### 5/5 — Revised App a Billion Times Better *2025-09-29, version 3.0.0* North Dakota released the new lottery app today. I’m not sure that anyone coming from the previous app to this one could give an accurate assessment of it because this new version is a billion times better than the previous app. It’s difficult to find the words to convey just how awful that app was. This new version seems easy to use. Buying tickets was a breeze. The graphics are good, the buttons are responsive. I am just so happy to be done with the nightmare that came before this one. ### 5/5 — App works great!! *2021-06-20, version 2.1.0* I have done the update and can still login and all the functions work great. Not sure what they updated. I do wish the app would save your email address so I don’t have to type it in every time. I also wish they would have the descriptions of the prizes/drawings on the app. I go to the website for that. Besides that the app is great!! ### 5/5 — Tickets *2019-06-04, version 1.1.0* It’s so awesome on this app you buy check and add the codes so easy now. I love the improvements ### 4/5 — Bring back Face ID Login *2026-05-06, version 3.2.0* The updated app brought Face ID login, which was a big upgrade from the old app. But then, the most recent update removed it. Please bring it back! Other than that, the app is still much improved from the previous version. ### 4/5 — Good but could be great *2025-12-23, version 3.1.0* Doesn’t show all 5 2 by 2 tickets when you purchase them. Will only show 4 out of 5 ### 4/5 — Much better now. *2025-12-18, version 3.1.0* The app is significantly better than it used to be. ### 4/5 — Works for me *2019-04-03, version 1.0.1* When you sign on, the screen stays blank. Just push the home button in the app and it will start fine... I’m just glad not to have to enter all the letter/number combos and I’m glad to have a way to double check my tickets before I toss them. Super easy to use, just needs a little patience... 🤷🏻‍♀️ ### 2/5 — Can’t see my tickets I bought *2022-07-10, version 2.1.0* I bought some tickets and I can’t see them anywhere on this app, will it just let me know if I win something? ### 2/5 — Used to work fine, now it won’t open. *2019-03-04, version 1.0.1* I have submitted weeks upon weeks of tickets, I was going to show my mother how cool the app was, because we could purchase our tickets through the app. And all of a sudden the app doesn’t want to open, what gives?! I don’t want to delete the app and risk losing all of my scanned points. Please help us get back into or at least do some maintenance to the app. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
