Go Outdoors North Carolina 4+

Very helpful app but extremely glitchy

This app has helped me numerous times and it’s a great addition for any outdoorsman to have it just glitches out a lot when you start using the map and you have to restart the app which can be annoying if you were close to pinpointing a location or if you had a lot of filters on you have to go and re apply them. But solid app 6/10 would be a 10/10 if they can just fix the glitching and freezing on the maps.

Update

Even though my app has updated I still can not see the sunrise and sunset. I love the app for many reasons as it is easy to tag a harvested animal. I can always look at the sunrise and sunset on the weather app. Just would be nice to use on the app as well. I’m worried if I uninstall and redownload the app I will not be able to put my stuff back up there as I have seen in previous reviews and I won’t be able to access the rest of my tags. Other then that, I love it. Very easy to direct through and very straight forward. A lot of information for some one willing to learn the regulations

Developer Response ,

Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and for your kind words about our app. We're delighted you find it easy to use and beneficial for tagging harvested animals.

We're sorry for the inconvenience with the issue with the sunrise and sunset times not showing. We suggest you check for any permissions that the app may need to display environmental data, such as sunrise and sunset times, as sometimes location access needs to be granted. If the problem persists, don't hesitate to contact our support team by email Info@GoOutdoorsNorthCarolina.com with details of your device and the version of the app you're using, and we will assist you further.

We're committed to making our app as user-friendly and informative as possible, and we take your concern seriously. Thank you for being so patient as we work to resolve this issue, and for your eagerness to learn the regulations.

Best regards,

Some constructive criticism

The app states that it is compatible with iOS 13 and up. My dad (74) has an iPhone 6s Plus. His iOS is 15.7.8.

The app loaded fine. When I went to sync his license to the phone (under the “add another license” tab, the app will either freeze and not allow the screen to continue OR the tab itself will simply freeze. Either way, nothing happens.

I can log into my dads account and see his lifetime info. That’s great. But if you aren’t gonna send out the paper licenses like in the past (especially for the older hunters) and you attempt to force them to go digital, please, at least ensure that the app itself is thoroughly debugged.

This old iPhone is literally the ONLY tech he owns. No laptop, printer, fax, or even satellite dish. Getting him to own this and “learn it” was no small undertaking. But he tries and is even savvy enough for some social media.

Personally I’m a fan of the app. Works great on my iPhone 13 Pro. And I understand the growing pains of starting a new way of doing things. But let’s not forget that we have to still take care of our elders, even when it comes to tech.

Thanks.
