If you’ve ever been on a long American road trip, you know the classic 'License Plate Game.' States and Plates takes that nostalgic pastime and turns it into a well-organized digital companion. It’s less of a 'game' in the traditional sense and more of a high-quality tracker and educational tool, which is perfect for families or travelers looking to kill time on the interstate.
The app is exceptionally clean, featuring beautiful illustrations of each state's plate and fun facts about all 50 states. I particularly liked the 'Map' view, which colors in states as you find them, giving a great visual sense of progress across the country. It turns a boring stretch of highway into a competitive scavenger hunt. While it's a niche app, it executes its specific purpose better than almost anything else in the category.

Tips & Walkthrough
Check the map view to see which regions you've missed. Often, seeing a plate from a distant state like Alaska or Hawaii is the rarest find, so keep your eyes peeled in tourist heavy areas!
Gameplays
When you see a plate, find the state in the list and tap it to 'collect' it. The app will record the date and show you how many more you need to reach 50.

Basic function fine extras non existent
Sat Nov 24 2018 jrkdjdkd dnxmBasic tracking and states worked fine. Ordered the extra vanity/ expansion pack plates things for .99. Never worked - I emailed them about it and they never responded
My Childhood Brought to Life!
Thu Oct 19 2017 Trigon1065This is the perfect app for this game. I love the additional puzzles too and community support. It’s been a year since the last update though so it could stand for one, but even so I downloaded the free version and moments later i bought it and the pack! I say a second vanity plate pack, updated plate designs, and maybe a way to tell if the puzzles were solved in that states plate as you go through the list. Other than that, A+ guys! I have recommended to my entire family and a few friends that play it too!
Same as free version
Thu Jul 20 2023 Wade12222222222Either there is a bug, and I’m not getting my extra plates, or the purchased versions are identical to the free version! Nothing changed when I paid my dollars for the vanity packs! Total waste of money! Also, it would be nice to have the solutions to the puzzles somewhere
Great app, but no Canada
Fri Feb 13 2015 ThinkdifferentzThis is the best designed license plate game app out there but extremely disappointing to not have the Canadian Provinces, if you live in the northern half of the country or do any serious road trips from upstate NY, New England to Montana, Washington State it really reduces the fun when you see a Canadian plate and can't count it (or learn about a Province) And then if you take frequent road trips across Canada itself (something you do a lot when you live in northern states) it is totally useless because all the cars around you are not from the U.S. An a update would be great!
App does not work.
Sat Apr 22 2023 mared74Bought it, tried to use it and it crashed immediately. Don’t waste your money.
No DC plates!
Mon May 31 2021 Dc 8.How can you not have plates for the Nation’s Capital? As such, this warrants the lone star. When they add Washington, DC I will be very happy to reevaluate the app.
Wouldn't Open
Sun Aug 09 2015 Pandas_88The app was set up nicely and easy to use. However once I closed it and tried to open it again, the app wouldn't open. It appeared as a loading screen and then crashed after a minute or two.
Fun, but crashes ALOT!!!
Sat Nov 29 2014 redcoat1775Great content, my kids loved the fun facts and the game, but it kept crashing/ refusing to open. Rebooted my phone twice, and it still crashed 10-12 times before it would open.
