### 3/5 — Update!

*2020-02-13*

Definitely helpful but seriously needs to be updated! I need the UCMJ articles almost everyday so these old ones are no use!

### 3/5 — Update needed

*2015-07-17*

Need to update for the MCM updates. Very handy app otherwise.

### 3/5 — Reviewed by

*2014-08-23*

Mostly good, but out of date.  I noticed how old the info is checking the Manual for Courts Martial, which has seen several changes not reflected in this app.

### 1/5 — Needs an update!! No support whatsoever!!

*2013-08-25, version 1.4.1*

Nice app, but needs iPhone 5 support, 2013 pay scale and so on...
They took my money but they haven't updated this in over a year. Pretty pathetic.

### 3/5 — Great info, weak interface

*2013-05-22, version 1.4.1*

You should re-design the app and make it faster to scroll, like to get to the meat and potatoes of Art. 134 in the punitive article section of the UCMJ, takes forever! Just a thought, maybe you could make it interactive, like click on the article and it jumps to the info to look up elements and other useful info.

### 5/5 — Doesn

*2012-07-29, version 1.4.1*

They got my money but it wouldn't download due to the graphics.

I regret buying this.

### 1/5 — U.S. Armed Forces

*2012-07-18, version 1.4.1*

you can get a better app for free. don't waste your dollar. you are better off giving your money to the guy at the corner

### 3/5 — 2012 MCM

*2012-04-17, version 1.4*

The 2012 MCM is out, please update. Also, could not find section on max penalties for punitive articles.

### 2/5 — Update the Info

*2012-04-07, version 1.4*

Needs a up-to-date pay chart

### 1/5 — Expected more...

*2012-03-31, version 1.4*

Very excited when I saw this collection of all things military. Great resource for those wanting a decent review of military assets.

Needs:

Full-screen photography
Multiple shots of ships, aircraft, etc.
Video
Lose the illustrations
Design a more compelling UI; was this designed in MS Word?
Times Roman as font?
