Team RWB is America's leading health and wellness community for Veterans. We bring Veterans and Service Members together with military families and supporters to move, connect, serve, and belong. The Team RWB App is our Digital Garrison, where members find the events, the challenges, and the people that make a healthier life stick. TRACK YOUR ACTIVITY - Sync Your Workouts: Connect a supported fitness platform or wearable device and your workouts flow into the app automatically: you’ll be able to see distance, duration, pace, heart rate, and your route map (depending on wearable device). - Benchmark Your Progress: Steps, distance, active time, and calories in 7-day, 4-week, and annual summaries. - Log It Yourself: No wearable? No problem. Enter workouts, reps, and rounds manually and they count toward fitness challenges the same way. - Compete in Fitness Challenges: Join a challenge and your qualifying workouts populate in the leaderboard, including workouts you logged before you even joined. One workout can count towards more than one challenge. - Private by Default: Nothing is public until you choose to share it. The map feature is off by default, turn it on to share. MOVE, CONNECT, SERVE, AND BELONG - Build Community: Connect with Veterans and Service Members across the country. Share your story, follow other members, and find camaraderie near you. - Discover and Participate: Find events near you or take on virtual challenges and workouts. Post photos and comments on the event thread to share your accomplishments. - Create and Lead: Got an idea for an event? Create your own and invite the community. Schedule events that fit your location, your interests, and your timeframe. - Know Where You Stand: Our in-app Enriched Life Scale survey helps you gauge and strengthen your physical health, mental wellness, relationships, and sense of belonging. - Stay in the Loop: Get notifications for event updates and when other members engage with your content. Toggle notifications on and off. - Share Your Story: Personalize your profile with a photo, cover image, short bio, and military service background to inspire others and build connections. Team RWB does not provide medical advice. Activity data in the app is for personal fitness and community participation only.

Beyond MST is a free, secure, trauma-sensitive mobile app that was created specifically to support the health and well-being of survivors of sexual assault or harassment during military service, also called military sexual trauma (MST). The app has over 30 specialized tools and other features to help those who use it cope with challenges, manage symptoms, improve their quality of life and find hope. You can also take brief assessments in the app, set self-care goals, track recovery progress, and learn more about MST and common concerns. You can use the app on your own or as a companion to formal treatment, and it may be helpful to survivors of other types of unwanted sexual experiences, too. The app keeps your information private; no account is needed, and any personal information entered in the app is not shared with anyone, including the VA. You can set a PIN lock for extra privacy. You are not alone: the Beyond MST app can help. Beyond MST was made by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Mobile Mental Health team at the National Center for PTSD, Dissemination and Training Division in collaboration with the National Center for PTSD, Women’s Health Sciences Division and the national VA MST Support Team.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Team RWB holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Team RWB has 4.3K ratings behind it against 48, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 71% of Team RWB's written reviews are positive against 80% of Beyond MST's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Team RWB ships an update every 3 weeks, Beyond MST every 12 months. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
