★★★★ "This app periodically forgets my subscription and the developers absolutely never responds when I email them. It's impossible to stop the $60/year auto renewal too (tried canceling with them two years in a roll)." - Gary S

I just paid for a new subscription and can't get anything from the app. I'm using android.
★★★★ Jessie Scott 10/7/2025 v2.0
on Android and all the menu buttons are across the bottom so that you can't select them. they're behind the navigation buttons on my phone
★★★★ Mark Harmon 11/22/2022 v0.5.1RCN
Always a day late and dollar short on investing. Every time i checked and adjusted my allocations based on tsp tips recommendations, compared to the L Funds i lost money. This last 6 months i ended up negative 7% of my investments while the L FUNDS were poaitive 4 to5 % . To say I am not happy with this app is an understatement. I know all the stock market took a beating this year, but tsp tips only made the losses hurt worse!

★★★★ S M 5/16/2020
Better performance using an target year L fund. Don't use this.
★★★★ A Google user 4/26/2020 v0.5.1RCN
Awful customer service. Stuck in this auto contract and service with no way to get out. I tried 3 emails, still no responce.
★★★★ A Google user 10/12/2019 v0.5.1RCN
Absolutely horrible, I was up most of the year managing myself started following once I joined. I have lost $20000 since I started following the advice seems to be a day late and a dollar short. So disappointed even after my friends convinced me to go to it for several years. I will be canceling this week. I should have known when the social media site sucked only 95 people liked it nothing been active on it for 5 years the website is horrible.
★★★★ A Google user 10/1/2019 v0.5.1RCN
I've only lost money with this app, used it for two years. Dont recommend.
★★★★ A Google user 6/17/2019 v0.5.1RCN
TSP Tips is fairly useless. You will get better results if you just never download this app and just put all of your money in a late L fund or just 100% in the C Fund or better yet, a mix of the C/S/I funds. If you google "I subscribed to TSP Tips so I could backtest it. Completely unsurprising results inside." you'll see a good analysis on Reddit for the performance of the service.
★★★★ A Google user 1/26/2018 v0.5.1RCN
Is only free for 24 hours while you open the account then you need to sing up for monthly payments. Spams to your email 24/7 DO NOT DOWN DOWNLOAD IT WILL SPAM YOUR EMAIL
★★★★★ Paul Bunyan 1/29/2026
The screen is partially blocked for listing the funds when you go to Tips history. Seems like they need to update this app.
★★★★★ Felipe Solorzano 3/30/2022 v0.5.1RCN
Fake Free Trial. I went in to get a 3 month free trial as it was advertised within the app and once I clicked Subscribe it now said 31 days. I canceled immediately.
★★★★★ A Google user 1/13/2018
The app is not reflecting current recommendations. The most recent market summary showing up is from the end of Nov.
