The home screen
Seven tiles. Everything is one tap from home.
This is the app’s own home screen. Each tile below opens the part of this site that describes it.
What it does
Built for the truck, the stand and the river bank
Everything opens from one home screen and works where your phone has no bars.
Wallet
Licenses and tags
Keep a copy of every license with its number, term, zone and expiry. You get a heads-up before one runs out.
Officer view
Show a warden
One tap opens a high-contrast screen with the license, your ID and the zone map. Big type, works offline.
Harvest log
Log the take
Record species, method, date and zone against the license it came off. The app refuses a take that license doesn’t cover, and says why.
Tag closeout
Report on time
Open tags stay at the top with a checklist that sends you to the state’s own reporting channel. Nothing is filed for you.
Zones + pins
Know your ground
Hunt-unit boundaries in 39 states and county lines in all fifty, BLM public land, units you can download for no signal, and stands, cameras and camp spots in any coordinate format your GPS speaks.
State laws
Rules by animal
Blaze orange, legal hours, baiting and tagging rules for every state, plus what’s open, closed or drawn. Each rule names its source.
Family
Add a young hunter
Kids under 13 live in a parent’s wallet, and hunting under 16 takes a parent’s consent step there. Their licenses sit in your wallet.
Trophy room
Your wall
Every harvest lands on a wall of 207 species plates, with a count beside each and milestones as the log grows.
SOS
Help, fast
An SOS strip on every screen opens 911, your coordinates and your trip plan, and tells you plainly when it needs a signal.
How it works
Your copy. The state’s license.
- We never sell you a license. You buy from the state, on the state’s own site, at the state’s price. Sportsmen Ledger holds your copy.
- Nothing is sent to an agency. Tag closeout is a checklist that points you to the official channel. Nothing is filed on your behalf.
- Your data stays yours. No account needed. If you make one, your wallet is locked on your phone with your password before it is saved, and nobody else can open it.
- Carry the original where the state requires it. Some states still require the official app or paper, and most don’t accept a digital tag. The app shows the rule for the 8 states we’ve verified so far and marks the rest unverified, so you know to check.
Our mission
Safe in the field. Licensed without the runaround. Standing with veterans.
Sportsmen Ledger is built for the people who hunt and fish, and it stands for three things.
Hunter and angler safety
We are advocates for hunter education and safe fishing. The app keeps your hunter education card with your licenses, puts an emergency button one tap from home, and lays out each state’s rules so you can read them before you go, not after.
The right license, fast
Finding out which license you need should not take an afternoon. Sportsmen Ledger takes you straight to the official state store for the license you want, then keeps your copy on your phone once you have it. The state issues the license and takes the fee; we make getting there quick and simple.
Standing with veterans
Sportsmen Ledger stands with veterans. We support and donate to organizations that help veterans living with PTSD and at risk of suicide. Our founder gives personally, works with veterans through existing programs, and is building a program and facility of his own to help veterans recover.
Call 988 and press 1, text 838255, or chat at VeteransCrisisLine.net. Someone answers 24 hours a day, every day. If you are in immediate danger, call 911.

Questions
Before you head out
Is a copy in this app a legal license?
No. It is your personal copy. Some states accept a digital license and many do not accept a digital tag. Where we have verified a state’s rule the app shows it; everywhere else it says unverified, and the state’s own regulations decide.
Does it work without cell service?
Yes. Once it is on your phone, your licenses, the officer view, all fifty states of law and your harvest log open with the phone in airplane mode. Weather and live map boundaries need a connection at the moment you pull them.
Can I buy my license through the app?
No, and that is on purpose. Every buy button opens the state agency’s own site, with the address shown before you go. The app never touches your license fee.
What happens if I lose my phone?
Your wallet lives only on the phone, so take a backup. It is one encrypted file, locked with a passphrase you choose. Restore it on the new phone. We never hold the passphrase and cannot recover it for you.
Is it in my language?
Very likely. The app and this website can be read in sixteen languages: English, Spanish, Chinese, Tagalog, Vietnamese, Arabic, French, Korean, Russian, Haitian Creole, Portuguese, German, Greek, Hindi, Japanese and Italian. You pick one on the very first screen of the app. Where law or competition rules are translated, the English text is the official one.
Who can use it?
Anyone 13 or over can have their own wallet and account. A child under 13 is added to a parent’s wallet, and hunting from 13 to 15 opens when a parent adds them there and turns on consent. Competitions and the drawing are for 18 and over.
