VA Mobile App Gives Veterans Easy Access to Benefits


More than 300,000 veterans have used the VA mobile app since the VA mobile app launched mid-last year. The Department of Veterans Affairs attributes the app’s success to the veteran-centric development approach.

According to an article published by VAntage Point, “This direct Veteran feedback, combined with development efforts to achieve high-value app functionalities…resulted in a mobile app Veterans can use to securely access personal VA records and easily manage their VA experience. The app is free and can be quickly downloaded to Apple and Android devices. [The] VA is working to make more features available on the mobile app soon, such as the ability to view pending (and request new) health care appointments as well as manage disability compensation, education, and pension payments.”
