Ratings and reviews

App worked for the last few years but 3 times this year we were unable to submit game checks. My son had a "no internet" message and didn't show license. Internet was working and submitted online standing in the same place. 2 times I attempted to submit game checks but it wouldn't allow me to set time of harvest. Displayed 2 digits instead of 3, those were limited to a 0,1 or 3. Found an update available after 1st time and installed it. App was up to date 2nd time. App didn't show the update.

Please back the feature of being able to print out your completed game check. Eliminating that feature was a bad idea for this year. It is a pain to have to physically fill out. This is a step backwards in Technology. Fix that, and it's back to 5 stars.

This app is very helpful! You can easily see the public hunting areas in the state as well as your current location in relation to public access boundaries (barring any internet connection issues). I would've given 5 stars but, when using the maps of the hunting and fishing areas, they don't include the restrictions found on maps from the ODNR website (ex: LaDue Area). A hunter could easily be in a restricted area and not know it if they are only relying on the app. That is a serious issue.
