### 3/5 — Charts art old

*2026-04-08, version 2.0.12*

Needs to be updated

### 1/5 — Website is full of extremefar left biased.

*2026-02-18, version 2.0.12*

Website is filled completely with extremely far left propaganda. Stick with actual facts and hire journalists who are not biased. Find a different app for any actual military facts and not just opinions. I’m not saying far right is always completely right but this website takes the bias to an extreme.

### 4/5 — Needs 2026 basic pay updates!

*2026-01-16, version 2.0.12*

This app is usually a helpful pay resource but the calculations are not accurate as of Jan 16, 2026 as it still inputs 2025 basic pay. Please update to 2026 basic pay increase which was signed into law with passage of NDAA!

### 1/5 — not what it is made out to be.

*2026-01-12, version 2.0.12*

this app is totally one sided and does not give a good point of view.  Essentially service to veterans or military is a political point nothing more.

### 4/5 — Doesn't  work

*2026-01-05, version 2.0.12*

Pages won't load

### 3/5 — Update needed for new pay rates

*2026-01-02, version 2.0.12*

Love the app!! But the pay does not reflect the 3.8% raise that was signed into law yet.

### 3/5 — Great when it works

*2025-12-29, version 2.0.12*

I’ve used this app for years. For the last 2-3 months none of the links for any of the articles work, this applies to the app and the website as well. Please fix it.

### 3/5 — Not loading

*2025-12-29, version 2.0.12*

I not sure if it is because I updated to IOS 26 but I have not been able to read any articles on any of the military.com apps please fix

### 4/5 — Update for USSF

*2025-12-10, version 2.0.12*

I love the app. I use it all the time to check on military pay amounts. I wish they would update it to be able to select Space Force as a service for the 11,000 of us that are in. I normally use my old service but there will be different special pay eventually.

### 1/5 — Obviously Biased

*2025-02-23, version 2.0.12*

After 26 years (enlisted & officer) in the military serving in Special Operations and conventional forces I can honestly say that these articles are written by educated people who know lots of information but have no concept of warfighting or war and its intricacies. This is NOT an accurate view of the military and the articles are clearly written by academics that have an agenda brought on by the Obama/Biden military industrial complex.
