Military Benefits Support
Military Benefits is an iOS app by Attention Labs for service members, veterans and their families. It finds federal and state benefits, military discounts, and free locations on a map; estimates pay; and tracks the statement credits on cards whose annual fee MLA/SCRA can waive, reminding you before each credit resets.
Get in touch
Email support@attentionlabs.dev. We reply within two business days. No account is required (Sign in with Apple is optional and never shares your name or email with us), so tell us roughly what screen you were on: we cannot look you up by name.
A figure looks wrong
Tell us which one. Benefit amounts, card annual fees, credit values and reset cadences change several times a year, which is why every item in the app carries a verified date and a link to the source it came from. If the source says something different from the app, that is a bug and we want it.
Pay figures come from the published DFAS basic-pay and BAS tables and the DTMO BAH tables, joined on your duty ZIP. If a component cannot be priced the app says so rather than showing a total that is missing a part of your pay.
Reminders
- Allow notifications when prompted, or later in iOS Settings → Notifications → Military Benefits.
- Reminders fire against each credit's own cycle — monthly, quarterly, half-yearly or annual — because most of these credits are use-it-or-lose-it.
- Credits marked Enroll do nothing until you enrol with the card issuer. The app tells you which ones; it cannot enrol for you.
Manage, restore or cancel a subscription
Pro is billed by Apple, so it is cancelled through Apple, not inside the app:
- On your iPhone, open Settings → tap your name at the top → Subscriptions → Military Benefits → Cancel Subscription.
- Cancelling stops the next renewal. You keep Pro until the end of the period you have already paid for. Deleting the app does not cancel a subscription.
- New phone, or reinstalled? Sign in with the same Apple ID and tap Restore purchases on the paywall.
- Refunds are handled by Apple at reportaproblem.apple.com.
Delete your data
There is no account to delete. The app identifies itself to our API with a random identifier generated on first launch and kept in the device keychain. Deleting the app and reinstalling after erasing the device issues a new identifier and disassociates the old data. To have the data behind an identifier deleted outright, email support@attentionlabs.dev.
Common questions
Does the app apply for benefits for me?
No. It finds, calculates and reminds. You still file the SCRA or MLA request with your card issuer, and you still apply to the agency that runs a benefit. Every item links to the place you do that.
Do I need to give you my location?
No. The map opens on a default region and you can search a ZIP. Location is requested only when you tap the locate-me control, and you can refuse it and keep using the map.
Why does the Discounts map show no pins?
Because those offers are national — they apply anywhere, so there is nothing to pin. The app says so and shows the list instead.
What is the Veteran-Owned list?
A directory of veteran-owned companies registered with SAM.gov. It is not a benefit you claim, and the app keeps it separate from the Benefits Library for that reason.
