IPPS-A Launch Platform

Only really allows you to submit for leave. Doesn’t let you see your STP. Doesn’t let SMs see their PPWs. Doesn’t allow for a lot of self service actions you’re able to do on a computer. Also have to go round and round just to login. The last update said the trust certificate issue was fixed but not on my iPhone apparently cuz I still have to click through the warning pages like 8 times then hit refresh just to get it to load. If nothing changes with the next update I’m definitely uninstalling the app

Why everything the Army has is really bad? Lowest bidder gets the contract? I was only using this app because the few things that actually works was looking at your promotions points sheet but now is gone. Thx for nothing.

Tried using DS Logon and the app takes you to a webpage that will not allow you to go to the page and log in. For the headache, I’ll use a regular browser.

I installed the required certificate for the app, but it still states that “this connection is not private”

I’m not usually compelled to write reviews, but the Army needs all the harsh criticism it can get, so hopefully senior leaders and civilian workers can figure their lives out. The idea of the app is about the only good thing that comes from the app. It’s a launch platform that takes you to a webpage. Of course since it’s a government website, you’re promoted with an “unsecured website” message. Safari and Google will not let you proceed even if you accept the risk. This app is utterly useless.

I’ve tried both DS and CAC login on my phone and both options result in immediate website crash after logging in. I can get into most other army websites no problem, just not ippsa. The same happens when using any browser app as well

When I saw that the app had finally fixed the DS Logon error so you could access IPPS-A on this app I was hopeful. No such luck. This thing is exactly what it say it is…a launch platform where you are simply taken to the IPPS-A website. And what’s worse, when you go to the PAID section to check your leave, you are taken to the windows version of it which is absolutely useless on your phone unless you zoom in to see it! What is the reason you guys can’t just make a working app? Wait, let me guess…it’s too hard with security features and data will be stored somewhere else, blah, blah, blah. I fail to believe that the Army can’t at least hire a contractor to make an app that is secure to go to on on your smart device instead of being taken to the actual website. Do better Army!

This is a complete failure from the word “go”. No wonder near peer competition is a threat. We can’t even do admin right. No one better mention this as a success on their OER/NCOER. The Army made it, so you know it’s junk.

I could make a better app than this trash

leave it to the Army to create THE WORST app known to man.. it would be a great app if it actually was an app. it literally just takes you to the website but even then it doesn’t function at all. Just use the site at this point. I’ll have a strawberry lemonade with light ice. I’m not really hungry.
