Needs some improving

It is difficult to use, the screen is not very usable, it is too small and you have to zoom in way too much. They charge you credit card fee when they should have an option for debit cards. I had to go through it four different times to finally get my fishing license. It needs to be more user-friendly. Plus, they ask for a shipping address when they donโ€™t send the printed copy anymore either. Just stuff that they should fix. The final button is CANCEL and is the largest button, and the YES button to finalize the transaction is small. Poor design.

Didnโ€™t catch any fish

Terrible app. I didnโ€™t even catch a single fish. Doesnโ€™t do as advertised ๐Ÿ™„

Just doesnโ€™t work

Iโ€™m able to get online with my information, but apparently I canโ€™t be found on the app even though the Ut DWR has all of my personal information. Tried deleting and reinstalling the app. Still no luck. Useless app

Terrible product, nearly unusable

All products made by Utah DWR are terrible. The UI/UX are some of the worst found on the internet and App Store. Not sure if theyโ€™ve ever met a designer, let alone heard of one. These products are nearly unusable and the systems are built to take your money. Unfortunately, thereโ€™s not an alternative because itโ€™s the government.

Not Even Close to Good

This app needs serious work. It will not pull accurate info from the DNR site. I cannot load my license or my Hunter Edication number. DNR added info to my account and it shows online but not in the app. The area boundaries are also inaccurate for some hunting areas. Canโ€™t trust the app. Not sure why I keep it downloaded. Paper licenses, tags, and hunter ed cards work better.

Whatโ€™s the point

Just a place to โ€œsaveโ€ your license on your โ€œsmart phoneโ€. The one takes photos, screenshots, etc. With countless ways to store and organize said photos, screenshots, etc. of things like licenses. But I canโ€™t renew a license from the app. Really? So taxes were utilized to make an app that has no way of taking money. Efficiency in action.

Alright

Itโ€™s ok, it could
Use a lot of work though

Download app

I have my education certificate and licenses but I canโ€™t get it because of app failure to download when I need it. Especially when game warden requests it, I had to go get reception then pull up AppStore to get it again.

Itโ€™s great!

I think the people complaining havenโ€™t hunted in a lot of other places and tried using a larger variety apps and resources from other agencies. It saves all your licenses, education, tags, and points you in the right direction for pertinent information.

Seriously Deficient App

I bought a 3-day non resident fishing license. When attempting to add my license, my account cannot be found. Iโ€™ve used my DL, SS# and customer ID to no avail. Pretty sad. Hopefully, the state will hire a high school kid and fix this issue.

Paperless

Itโ€™s a great way to keep your license information with you always! Easy and fast to use

Poorly Designed

One of the worst apps Iโ€™ve experienced, you shouldnโ€™t have to go โ€œhuntingโ€ to figure this thing out.

Great app but a suggestion

I like the app because I can have my fishing license where it canโ€™t get lost as easy. I was wishing it had the Utah fishing and hunting guidebooks available for download in the app so I would be right there with my license. But great app anyway

Genuinely the worst app Iโ€™ve ever used

Every time I use this pile of crap app I want to tear my hair out. You can tell it was made by a bunch of ancient people who have no clue how to app development works. Itโ€™s impossible to log in every time and it never listens to my inputs. What a nightmare. If I could leave zero stars I would.

Great Resource

Congrats to Utah DWR on a good job. This app gives me what I need and more than I expected.

Horrible app

Purchased a fishing license. Payment accepted. Canโ€™t download the license and it canโ€™t locate my account. What a waste.

FUBAR at DNR

Never received a paper license so I decided to use this app on my phone for proof of licensing while fishing. So then I dropped my phone in the creek while taking a photo of a massive brownie my buddy caught. Phone was waterlogged and inoperable, and consequently I was deemed unlicensed for the remainder of the day (no paper license on hand). Luckily I wasnโ€™t checked that day by an officer. โ€œYes Iโ€™ll own my mishaps and mistakes.โ€ Now I carry my self printed copy paper license in a Ziplock baggie while afield to keep it dry. What a friggin hassle. Bring back waterproof paper licenses DNR, this e-licensing thing is lame and vulnerable to phone damage and dead batteries. Laterโ€ฆ

Download Poor

I downloaded the app because of the paperless license. Great idea except when the app updates it removes all your downloads. I shouldnโ€™t need to check the app every time I go fishing to see if my license is still there.

So now, Iโ€™ll be still printing off my license so that I donโ€™t have to worry about getting checked and receive a warning because the app updated and removed my downloaded license. Or a ticket.

This should be an easy update for senior developers to create a function that will prevent the app from removing downloads.

Doesnโ€™t download licenses

Pulls up my account, but wonโ€™t download my licenses. Tried several times in different ways. Same result.
