N1KDO's LoTW Look
LoTW Look allows Amateur Radio Operators to browse and search their Logbook of the World (LOTW) QSL confirmations on their Android device, and to automatically receive notifications when new QSL confirmations appear on LoTW. No more logging into the LoTW web site daily to check for a confirmation from that rare DX, with LoTW Look a notification will appear on your phone/tablet.
LoTW Look uses your web site username and password to periodically access LoTW web services and collect QSL data from LoTW. You must have a Logbook of The World login to use LoTW Look.
Please note that N1KDO's LoTW Look does not allow you to upload logs to Logbook of The World. This tool simply displays your QSLs (matches) on Logbook of The World. Again: you must have a Logbook of The World account set up in order to use this app.
This app is designed to be very lightweight on your device. Typical installed size for the app and the database of the most recent QSLs is under 3MB. Polling for new confirmations can be set for "never", or one of every 4, 6, 12, or 24 hours. Polling is deferred when the device is "sleeping" to help conserve battery life.
LoTW Look is free, and has no displayed advertisements or any other source of revenue, save one. If you find N1KDO's LoTW Look useful, kindly show your support by pressing the "pizza" option in the menu, where you can make an "in-app" purchase and buy N1KDO a slice of pizza (3 USD). Once donated, the pizza icon will disappear, and I will be most grateful.
N1KDO is not affiliated with ARRL or Logbook of the World in any manner other than that N1KDO is a member of ARRL and is a LOTW user.

I am a new user of LOTW, and I found this app really useful. Thank you for writing this app. 73, de YD3KNJ
Great way to keep up with new QSL's without having to log in to LoTW
Is on my 5 apps list ranking. Thanks!
I like it whenever the app notifies me of confirmations.
Have been using this for a year, Simple way to be notified of QSO confirmations! K5RFS
No I'm not going to buy a new device your app isn't that good to begin with
I love your LOTW app. Works great for me, My friends need it for there " I " phone. Anyway sending a Jersey style slice off pizza to you ! Thnx De KG2GL
I use this app all the time. Thanks for the hard work. Enjoy the pizza slice! 73 de KG2S
Can't even login to LoTW with it.
Works great, very useful, pizza's on me,!
Thanks for the nice app. Enjoy your pizza! 🍕 KN3O
Just found this app and glad to have it. This will be helpful during the Grid Chase. Thanks N1KDO, I bought you a slice but didn't see an option to buy a whole pie, which you deserve for your work on this app. I would like to see FT8 added to the list of modes and be able to do partial callsign or grid square searches as well as filtering by US state.
2 stars of harass-ware in the menu
Does what no others do. Look up LoTW qsl data.
Love it, use it daily. Gives me a easily checked concise picture of confirmed QSLs. -- Ralph, W5VE
Would be perfect if it included QSO' s and QSL's
Working well for me. Much easier than having to log in and its nice when the qso's just pop up on your screen. Simplified.
I put in my login information and it says they are incorrect. I tried Uninstalling and reinstalling the app to no avail.
I look at this all the time. Being a DXer and contester, I submit lots of QSO's to LOTW. Thus is so cool, seeing all the guys confirming the contact.
Crap, I could do absolutely nothing with this app. Uninstalling.
I've started chasing DX and NPOTA and uploading my log from DX Labs weekly. Now with LoTW Look, I can watch my confirmations come in and am often surprised when a old QSO pops in there. Great app!
This app has got to be rhe easiest I have ever installed and used. Went to set up screen entered the necessary information and loged onto LoTW.
Working smoothly and doing what it is promised to do. In the new versions I would like to see whether the newely received CFM is a new for Challenge ( band, mode) or even for the rest of LoTW's awards, in the same manner as it seen in the regular web version.
Nice interface to Logbook of the World (LotW). It periodically polls your account for new confirmations.
Realized my first review was too harsh, accidentally deleted it so I'll reassess to 4 stars. I'd like to see sort orders hence 4 stars instead of 5.
Installed, entered callsign, password, etc. It keeps saying to enter it... After doing this 4 times, I thought it would work. I tried several calls in my log, nothing happens. Uninstalled, no pizza.
Does just what I need, thanks! Yeah, I love this. One step to see my latest QSLs. Enjoy the pizza! Jeff, KF5KWO
