We love our neighbors to the North! Please include them for free…many missed opportunities to check off plates. ### 5/5 — Better than the other license plate apps *2025-06-03, version 2.0.1* I love the app and the ability to log more than just the basic plates, but can you please add Lotus and Polaris? I’ve seen both, but I was unable to log them. Smartcar should be added too. ### 5/5 — Fun little game. *2025-01-11, version 2.0.1* Nice little app to keep busy on loooonnnggg road trips. Clean and simple. Would be nice if Canadian and Mexican plates were added or could be purchased. ### 5/5 — Great but needs updating *2024-11-28, version 2.0.1* This app is incredible but sadly hasn't been updated in about 3 years. Lots of states have put out new plates since the last update but as far as state tracking goes this app is the best! ### 4/5 — Android version is better but still a fun app *2024-06-16, version 2.0.1* I had the android version for years and it was a 5 star app that has entertained adults every day. The specialty plates make it way more interesting day to day than just states. HOWEVER, I would be happy to pay for Canadian and Mexican plates like the Android but they aren’t available the Apple Store. That loses a star for me. Please bring them back! ### 4/5 — Great Game! *2024-02-19, version 2.0.1* Overall a great game does exactly what the description says. However, the license plates of the US are not up to date and shows older plates for multiple states. Great game would highly recommend! ### 5/5 — Love this *2023-06-16, version 2.0.1* I absolutely love this app, it is the best license plate game app out there. It is very easy to use, and I love that I could purchase the Canadian plates. I also really love that I can track specialty plates and makes of cars. Thanks for such a great app! ### 4/5 — Please add Canadian provinces *2022-08-11, version 2.0.1* The kids really enjoy this app. But they were disappointed when they discovered that they could not log their “cool finds!” of Ontario, Alberta, and British Columbia on our car trip home from vacation driving through New England and New York. Please do add the Canadian provinces. We would appreciate it! ### 5/5 — Fun for all ages *2022-06-15, version 2.0.1* My family and I love taking road trips and this is fun to look for all the different plates. ### 5/5 — Awesome! i have a request though *2022-06-13, version 2.0.1* Hey! if you’re thinking about getting this app, you totally should. just making this review to suggest 2 additions to be made to the list. you could add a VAS (volunteer ambulance service) license plate, and a logo for Smart cars. like the tiny 2-seater electric cars. just 2 ideas. anyway, love the app! bye! ## Frequently asked questions about Plates ### What does the Plates - Family Travel Game app do?
