### 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Mostly good, but out of date.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.

### 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.

### 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.

### 4/5 — Useful App

*2010-12-28*

This is a very useful app.  I work on a base that is represented by all branches of the service and constantly reference.  I also used it to help study for a recent Junior Sailor of the Quarter board, which I won.  I was wondering if you could add Naval Warfare Devices and the different Uniform regulations.  That would definitely make this app a five star app.

### 3/5 — Good but has room for improvement!

*2010-09-02*

Overall it's a very well done app but could use a few other things.  I think that PT standards would be WAY more useful than presidential addresses.  Also, you should create an actual pay calculator like many websites have.  That would certainly help!  Possibly a new interface too that is icon oriented with categories.  There is tons of info in this app and it really needs better organization.  Other than that keep up the good work!

### 3/5 — Good, but could be better!

*2010-06-15, version 0*

Great app, lots of info, would be 5-star with a general search option to help you locate specific information from any page, including the main menu.

### 3/5 — Good app

*2010-06-03, version 0*

Missing words like bohica( bend over here it comes again) and whiskey tango ( white trash)

### 4/5 — Incorporate PT Standards

*2010-04-17, version 0*

This definitely a very handy tool. Developers, please incorporate Physical Training (PT) standards for every service. That would complete it for me.

### 5/5 — FRH

*2010-04-08, version 0*

Ok FRH stand for field ration heater used to warm up the MRE's

### 5/5 — Great

*2010-04-07, version 0*

This app is cheaper and better than any paper version of basic service wide knowledge. Has a ton of great information, especially like the information for medals and awards.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 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.

### 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

### 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?

### 1/5 — Sandpebbles

*2012-03-25, version 1.4*

This app is extremely frustrating. 
Despite making the text as large as possible it was still impossible to decipher the enlisted insignia. 
Also I could find no way to comment or provide feedback except through the review process.

### 1/5 — It used to be a good app

*2011-10-08, version 1.4*

But it stopped working and can't get updates. It used to be free but now it cost a whooping $4.99. Why? I want mine to start working again but refuse to pay for the upgrade since I had already downloaded the free version. Maybe it self destructs after a certain time.

### 1/5 — Nice resource, but misrepresented

*2010-09-30, version 0*

I will change this to a 5-star review once all the things listed as "included" in the description are actually included in the purchase price, not just available for purchase through the app.

### 2/5 — Update the Info

*2012-04-07, version 1.4*

Needs a up-to-date pay chart

### 2/5 — Missing something!

*2011-12-29, version 1.4*

Anybody heard of The Infantryman's Creed? Well; it's not here... Lack of info!

### 2/5 — Almost good

*2009-06-20, version 0*

Not good because is missing so much, like over half of the awards and ribbons from the Army (Regular, Reserve and National Guard). It contains an average level of incomplete information already found on the web. Maybe on the next update, if there is one.....

### 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!

### 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.

### 5/5 — wonderful/informative

*2011-08-30*

I have refered to this app countless times, especially when the need for a counseling statement or Article 15 needed to be done. This app has lots of details about all services. i love the fact that the detail/description in the awards and decorations page is immaculate. the few things that this app is missing is the Infantrymans creed and song! i would also love to see the standards for uniforms implimented ( i needed that right now for my class A's, but it is not on this app sadly) all in all, this is a 5 star app that is completely worth the small price! Definatly needs all the FM, DD, and AR manuals.....

### 5/5 — Great resource

*2011-04-21*

This is a very SOLID app.  Much more well rounded then I thought it would be.  I've owned it for over a year and still can recommend it.  Again...very comprehensive compared to others.  If it could grow...I would suggest per diem rates, GSA airline city pairs, pay.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2011-04-20*

This is a tremendous resource and has more in hear than many of the other apps out there.  I don't tend to write reviews but was blown away with what is included within.  If you want all things military, this is worth every cent.

### 5/5 — Out of Date

*2011-02-14, version 1.3.7*

I absolutely love this app beyond imagination...but the only thing I recommend is that they start to keep things up to date..it's been a while and a lot has changed with everything it be 30x better if they would just supply an update for this application. Otherwise! This app is boss!

### 5/5 — Love it

*2011-02-13, version 1.3.7*

Update AFI21-101 and add its ANG SUP

### 5/5 — Outstanding app!

*2010-09-22, version 0*

Couldn't be more pleased! Great job. I love the rank section especially in joint command and with my PGR missions!

### 5/5 — Wonderful app

*2010-07-14, version 0*

I love this app but it could use some more air force stuff

### 5/5 — Great deal for the price

*2010-05-17, version 0*

You get a lot for just $1.99.

### 5/5 — Awesome app!

*2010-05-05, version 0*

This app is very useful and extremely interesting. Whether you're interested in the military or just like learning about it, this app is perfect. Also, all other apps by this dev are sweet. Bought 'em all.
