Be smart...buy and hold.
It's better than leaving your money in G, but that said I found I get way better results being a Buy and Hold investor. You can't constantly time the market....you’ll hit the same as you miss. Stick with your stocks and you'll make money (buy and hold). I’ve tracked my B&H approach for 2 years against these recommendations and average 18% more than this app. Do your research and buy and hold on index funds.

Simple, Easy, Safe
When I started this app they had almost the same figures I had, plus or minus 10% investment [which apparently is a lot] but I'm no stock analyst. It's simple and easy and safe, you still manage the account, they just advise. I'm happy.
Update: Looking back four years later, I'm still happy. Granted the market worm has turned but I went from 2-5% on my PIP doing it myself to 12-17% under their advice. Gangbusters! It's worth every cent to have this app. It's no guarantee as nothing in stocks ever is, but they know what they are doing, far better than me.

What a bunch of baloney!
This app is nothing more than a means to get you to sign up for their monthly fees. Don't be fooled. And when they claimed that they made money in 2008 when the economy tanked, let's see some proof. Was this service even in business then?
And then there's the reviews. Several different (4&5 star) reviews mention the "nominal" fees. Odd word to have pop up in several different reviews. Sound suspicious to you? Me too.
If you don't know enough about timing the markets to shift your investments around, what makes you think that these guys know any more? Because of their undocumented claims and some ginned up reviews on their app? Put your money in the lifecycle funds and go about your life. That's what they're there for.

Working great for me!
It eliminates the guess work for me. I get a push notification telling me where to move my money. The nominal fee is irrelevant to me, I am busy and don't have time to keep up with the market.
Must-have
From a skeptic, this app has done nothing but impress me. Great developers, great results--as long as you understand downloading the app won't materialize money for you.
Waste of money
The data they provide is literally available all over the Internet for free. Even the TSP website offers education. Educate yourself on your money and future, don’t pay someone else to do the thinking for you.
Love Money!
Takes guess work out of investing and takes the stress for you.
Best, greatest!!!
Been followed for almost two years now, average 15% gain!
Annual returns and iPad Version
Would like to be able to see past annual performance/returns maybe quarterly updates. Then be able to compare those returns to S&P over time. I only have iPad so I would like to see iPad version. There is some clunkyness using iPhone version on pad.
I like the weekly updates.
Update: I'm still liking the weekly updates. I would like to see the performance of the TIPs though. Yearly and quarterly would be nice. How did TIPs perform in 2016 and how is it performing in 2017? I don't always follow and would like to compare my performance to TIPs
