User Reviews
Tried to put my government id in so I can sign up and it won’t accept my numbers I tried different options but it says I don’t have enough number or it can’t find me
New users can't even buy a fishing license through the app. Absolute garbage.
The app is as basic as it comes (which is actually probably better in this case). It has many repetitive info dumps that could be consolidated for efficiency. It absolutely needs Apple Wallet support to be taken seriously. Fishing (no pun) for the app in a sea of hundreds on an iPhone is no fun when the warden is waiting. Add Apple Wallet (as other states have) support ASAP.
I'm out of state trying to get a single day fishing license, and the instructions send you to a link that blocks you from getting it without a GO ID, but doesn't allow you to sign up for a GO ID until you've verified your identity through GO ID. Worst system ever.
15 minutes in and cannot even create an account
App works as should and displays what you need. You can purchase everything from the app. There’s some upgrades to wish for but this is a step in the right direction to have this mobile feature.
Says error 403 and won’t let me buy anything
Can't even link info to register, it can't associate any ID info I give it. Tried DL, passport and nothing but errors.
Won’t let me make an account I’ve tried doing the associate bs cause it won’t let me do anything else. I’ve used my military and my state id and just keeps giving errors. Whats the point of having an app and then not even bothering to make sure it works. Waste of time
The app feel a bit raw, but I think it’s a step in the right direction. There’s is no sense in carrying physical copy of the license when you have your phone with you. Here are few wishes/comments: Apparently you cannot use the same account you already created online with this app, you have to try-register then link them (inconvenient); I wish I can use app for lobster reporting as well (why on earth I need to carry that stupid card with me?). I wish I can specify the location and harvest method (freediving) and have a tailored regulations with fish search and id guid. And add an interactive MPA map.
