### 1/5 — Stupid App

*2017-11-23, version 2.4*

What is the point in searching for your disability injuries when it should be able to know your diagnosis when you log on to ebenefits or something of that matter. Waste of money and immediately regretted it upon purchasing it. There is no feature where you can ask for a refund within 24hours if you don’t like the app or it isn’t what you were expecting. Need to be clear what the app really is and that it doesn’t tell you your rating, that you have to search each disability individually on your on. Stupid app and a waste of money.

### 2/5 — Good source of information

*2017-11-12, version 2.4*

The idea is great because it could be overwhelming exploring all pertinent and potential diagnostics. The information is organized and there are a few issues that take away from it’s practically. An option to build a profile and keeping the information is vital for any app.

### 1/5 — Bad buy

*2017-06-17, version 2.2*

Not worth the money. Do not buy this app. Would give no stars but it must have at least o e star to send comment.

### 1/5 — Don't get it

*2017-02-17, version 2.2*

Waist of time

### 1/5 — Why is this app even available?

*2016-12-30, version 2.1*

Calculations in the app is way off, some of the buttons don't work. Don't know why they would charge for this app in the first place. Do not purchase this app you are better off getting your info on ebenefits or va.gov.

### 1/5 — Was a great tool!!

*2016-11-04, version 1.9*

Since last update, all information was deleted and attempting to recreate has been fruitless since search doesn't show anything. In the day that I needed it!!!!!

### 1/5 — App won't open

*2016-11-03, version 1.9*

Paid, Downloaded and still won't OPEN 😖😡.. Can I get help please.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work at all!

*2016-11-03, version 1.9*

I bought this app last night (2nov) and it will not do anything.  You cannot update dependents, you can't search for a diagnosis.  Waste of money.

### 1/5 — Don't waste your money.

*2016-11-03, version 1.9*

Don't buy it. The search function doesn't work

### 1/5 — You dumped all of my data

*2016-11-02, version 1.9*

On 1 Nov, you updated the app. For the second time I lost all of my data which took hours to compile. Not happy!!!!!!!!!

### 1/5 — DO NOT BUY!!!!

*2016-10-20, version 1.8*

This app is a complete waste of money!
Refund Please 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

### 1/5 — Not worth the price!

*2016-05-29, version 1.6*

You should be ashamed for charging so much for this app. I'm a Veteran and I have worked for the VA. I have helped numerous veterans get benefits for the service connected disability's. I was very hesitant in purchasing this app and I wish I would've listened to my gut. This is a waste of time and money. There's more than enough resources online so don't bother buying this. Wish I could get my money back.

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2016-02-06, version 1.4.3*

The app is useless and a waste of hard earned money. Don't buy it.

### 1/5 — Need a serious upgrade

*2026-05-18, version 2.9*

I downloaded the app and paid the money and now I see that the app probably hasn’t been updated with current percentages and current diagnosis in a very long time. I would love to use this app but half of my claims can’t even be found.

### 1/5 — Nothing Great

*2025-08-02, version 2.9*

Missing all kinds of schedule of rating codes and diagnosis. Not worth the money.

### 1/5 — OUTDATED DO NOT BUY!

*2023-12-31, version 2.8*

2016 info, and the “support” links time out. Boooo!

### 1/5 — Very OUTDATED Information

*2023-01-01, version 2.8*

Update to 2023 VA Tables!

### 1/5 — Warning!! Outdated info!

*2022-09-29, version 2.8*

I agree with other comments! 

“How about updating the app to 2021 VA Compensation Rates and latest diagnosis codes released by the VA. Then you'll get a higher rating!!!”

It has lots of potential, however seem they have lost touch & now just collects payments from veterans.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2021-01-02, version 2.7*

As I was looking for VA benefit apps I came across one that charged 4.99...thinking “oh, this should have everything I’m looking for” when in fact it does not. Definitely a waste of money. Definitely misleading as well. DO NOT BUY THIS APP

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time or money

*2019-05-28, version 2.5*

App is outdated and most disability codes do not exist along with the descriptions. Even the easy ones cannot be found. Stop taking veterans money people on something that could’ve be made much better and it’s so simple. Shame on you guys. Give it for free for what you get.

### 1/5 — Not worth the $$$ Read Reviews First

*2018-10-12, version 2.5*

Not worth the $$$. I have 16 rated conditions, the app only has 5 of them in the “database”...sort of. App should be free, they clearly do not use the money for updates of their app. What a waste! Refund would be appreciated, but not holding my breath!

### 1/5 — Not helpful at all

*2018-09-26, version 2.5*

I wasted my money.  I want a refund

### 1/5 — Not worth it for me...

*2018-06-07, version 2.5*

None of my disability issues are on the app, money wasted.

### 5/5 — FANTASTIC APP!

*2021-02-26, version 2.7*

After being out of the military for almost 17 years this app single-handedly help me receive 100% disability rating. Please understand that you going to have to do some legwork also but this is an amazing tool to reference as you navigate the veterans administration.

### 5/5 — Awesome App/100% permanent on 1st try

*2018-09-05, version 2.5*

I started using this app about 2 years before retirement. It works great. Some thing I never even realized I could get rated for. It helps you plan effectively. I had urinary incontinence and didn’t even know it. Many conditions are caused by stress. Since military folks are constantly put under stress, there are many conditions rated that may not make since to you at first.

It’s time to stop being so tough, stop sucking it up, and get yourself checked out.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2016-11-05, version 2.0*

This is a great app that helps understand what you need and exactly what the VA wants for the claim. 

Finding a diagnosis is a little complicated and there is a steep-ish learning curve, but once you get some time logged in to the app, it becomes easier. 

During the last update, however, the app can't talk to the database and all my info was lost. Still a great app that I'm sure the developer will fix shortly! EDIT: Within two days, the developer fixed the database issue and now everything works. GREAT APP

### 5/5 — Extremely helpful and on point!

*2014-04-25, version 1.3*

Helped me get 90% with all my ongoing documented medical issues after my AF retirement. This app is a must to get you informed before you retire or get out. 
Good luck!

### 5/5 — Nice app! It makes the complicated calculations easy!

*2014-02-18, version 1.1*

The most helpful app out there for vets

### 4/5 — Thank you for creating this amazing app.

*2019-11-05, version 2.6*

This app has become a truly invaluable tool among others that has helped me further understand the VBA system.

### 4/5 — Great App

*2014-02-20, version 1.1*

Great app to give you an idea on VA percentages. One thing I can't figure out....how to delete a diagnoses that has been added.

### 3/5 — Helpful Research Tool

*2018-03-30, version 2.4*

Such whiners...you can please some people all of the time, all people some of the time, but you can never please all of the people all of the time.

### 2/5 — Good but needs to be updated

*2023-05-03, version 2.8*

Please update

### 2/5 — Outdated

*2018-01-18, version 2.4*

I don’t believe this is the most up to date 38 CFR info
