New version review for S5, wanted the app to store my license info on phone. The birthdate identifier dialog box does not work. I can't access Web based license info at all. Incidentally, this feature did not work in Florida version either.

Useless. Really liked it when it first came out. Tried it again and it still does the same thing. Cycles between ad and app. Don't have time to do anything.

I love this app. I delete it after deer season and reload every year. Though it doesn't replace the web site it's a great quick reference guide.

The people that have put in the hours, days, and endearing effort to construct this app, for folks, like me, a Georgia resident, or for folks like someone half a world away, are the true recipients of these 5 stars. This is not a work of competition or techno-wizardry, it is a work showing a visceral appreciation of Nature, in this case, within the bounds of Georgia, and the epitome of true altruism that motivates one person to share something of beauty with another. I commend you all with a vote of unsurpassed excellence. -djc

This is a rather handy app & generally replaces the Hunting Guide/Regulations book, except for WMA info Suggestions for improvements - app requires excessive Permissions - fonts are tiny & not scalable - enable text copy/paste - relocate Waterfowl regulations & seasons alongside all the other hunting regulations & seasons. It is buried, and the seasons are not even present. Must visit the DNR website for the info, and doesn't even link to the info. @bryangrant

This app was installed primarily because I was searching for a fish and game forecast. It is a beautifully conceived and supported effort in all ways, it just really needs a feature that can be used daily.
