Washington / Washington State has had a mobile app since 2010, but it's only a search tool. It allows customers to lookup entity registrations and charitable organizations displaying basic data like: name, dates, registered agent, governors.....
No significant problems, although limited function.

Hi, Shawnzia.

We prepared an overview of eGov services provided by the states. I've attached the report, it is on our DC Connections page. According to our research, there are two states with some type of mobile app related to business services. NC and WA. You might want to reach out to them. There may be others since Jan 2015, but this will give you a start.

Best,

Leslie
