Another GameCheck App Question - Adding a profile for your kids on your phone? - 10/19/16 04:54 PM

Is there a way on the GameCheck App to add your kid's profiles on your IPhone?

I went online and got my two kids their GameCheck H.E.L.P. # and got their Conservation ID's. Both are 9 years old and no way are they getting an IPhone anytime soon. I could care less if everyone else in their class has one crazy - I have to listen to that almost every day mad .

I thought great I will just make them a profile on the App too and only have to have my phone when hunting with them and could show their Hunter Exempt License Privilege(H.E.L.P.), Conservation ID and their profile on the App and I would be good. I went in and made my profile on my IPhone App but every time I go in now it goes straight into - What are you reporting? No way to add another profile.

Guess we are still going to have to carry the paper harvest log and we just call it in for them.

Any of y'all with kids tried the same thing yet?

I think you are correct. I finally got the app loaded and working on my son's phone after 3 days of fooling with it. Mine are 12 and 13 so they have their own phones even though they are cheap Trac phones. We are just going to go with the paper forms anyway though and got cid numbers for all of us since I don't need a license on our own land.

I got both my kids the H.E.L.P and a Conservation ID number. I add both the license to my iPhone wallet. I saved the Conservation ID under there names in notes and I think that should cover them both.

I need a Conservation I.D. number and a H.E.L.P. number for the grandkids? Where do I get them? I don't own a smart phone.

The OP is saying that he cannot report his kids deer with the Game Check App so the kids will still have to carry the paper harvest record. Once you log in to the Game Check App you basically create a profile. It doesn't give you the option of creating a 2nd or 3rd profile for your kids, so you can only use the App for reporting the harvest of the person that set up the initial profile.

This needs to be fixed.

That is probably purposely done so you can't have more than one harvest record available on a single device. Wouldn't bother me and would be really convenient but a lot of people would cry about it saying people would report deer under their kids names to get around the 3 buck limit. Same as it being illegal to have more than 1 harvest report paper in possession. It's a pain to make my kids carry their own but that's the law. I won't say I don't carry theirs in my pocket though just to make sure it doesn't come up missing.
