Build 26.9.5 brings a sharper disability calculator and a few quality-of-life touches across the app. NEW • The disability calculator now shows your current VA rating right beside what your pending conditions would pay — no more mental math to see where you stand. • Retroactive backpay estimate: the calculator figures the lump sum the VA would owe from the effective date forward, so you know what to expect on award. • Messages and My Documents now show purposeful screens when there's nothing there yet, with clear next steps instead of a blank page. IMPROVED • Buttons across the app follow a cleaner visual pattern — one filled action per screen, everything else outlined. Easier to spot what matters.

This build fills in some gaps and cleans up the map. NEW • Your Claims tab now includes VA-established claims, so the full picture is in one place — no more missing what the VA filed on your behalf. • Find a Rep centers the map on your location as soon as you allow it and marks your searched address with a green pin. • Message attachments show thumbnails and previews before you send, so you know exactly what's going out. • Feedback now goes through the same form the web app uses — no more composing an email. • The Nexus tab is tidied up: the explainer blocks are gone, leaving the nexus letter prompt front and center. FIXED Claim and appeal filing flow squared away, and the location-timed-out popup in Find a Rep no longer fires incorrectly.

This build puts Find a Rep on patrol and squares away forms, the calculator, and service records. NEW • Connect with a rep or invite one to TurboVets and filter by source. Find a Rep opens from the Disability hub as a dismissible drawer. • Disability Calculator sandbox mode — model an estimate with no veteran record on file. • The estimate PDF matches the branded web version, and rating math no longer drops a tier on three ratings. • Edit or delete service record events and periods. • A new guided-flow step shows which benefit program pays you most. • Sign your own claim or appeal and "Decline to sign" stays out of the way. • No active Intent to File at the submit step? A Start ITF action is there now. • 20-0995 starts with one issue pre-populated; Next highlights what is missing. FIXED Bottom buttons no longer hide under the home indicator, back from add-evidence returns to the right step, and the 21-526EZ review no longer shows 100% complete before anything is reviewed.

Maintenance build with behind-the-scenes work. • App links from the web are temporarily stood down while we sort out the plumbing underneath. Your bookmarks and everything inside the app still work the same. We will re-enable them once the wiring is squared away.

This build gives you the full picture behind your disability rating and brings attachments to messaging. NEW • Disability Calculator, step by step — see your combined rating, the bilateral factor, dependents, monthly payment and every condition priced, then save a PDF. • Attach photos, camera captures and TurboVets documents from the message composer. • Ask Turbo's navigation links now open in the app, and crisis resources display properly. • Report VA fraud from the login screen — direct links to the DOJ, FBI and VA OIG. • ISA support mode — act as a veteran who granted you access and exit cleanly. • Conditions and symptoms updated for accuracy and web parity. FIXED Veteran status checks getting stuck or looping, VA Forms submissions opening a blank screen, the spouse edit form losing answers on reload, the force-update screen dead-ending instead of recovering, and several behind-the-scenes crashes.

Full tablet and wide-screen support, tighter security, and claim-filing improvements. NEW • Two-pane layout on Messages, Claims, Documents, VA Benefits, My Profile and Settings — your list stays visible while you read the detail. • Navigation rail replaces the bottom bar on wider windows. • Foldable and split-screen aware — resize mid-session and the layout follows. • App lock on resume: biometric with device-passcode fallback. • Security screen: see every signed-in device, name them, sign one out. • Sign or decline a form straight from a push notification. • Claim wizard adds a Symptoms field (maps to 526EZ) and suggests secondary conditions to link. • Skip control on onboarding — leave the intro at any screen. • Offline status bar when comms are down. FIXED • Crash when opening a notification destination. • Reps at one address unreachable on the Find a Rep map. • Signing date off by a day when timezone crossed midnight. • Modals dismissed the screen instead of themselves.

Build 26.8.2 gives your documents some AI backup and tightens up sign-in. NEW • AI document analysis — see which documents have been analyzed, and run an analysis yourself to pull out suggestions you might have missed. • Review and act on suggestions — document-derived suggestions now have their own screen, with bulk actions so you can accept or dismiss several at once. • Device-aware sessions — the app now asks whether you're on a private or shared device so it can handle your session accordingly. • System sign-in session — ID.me login now uses your device's built-in secure browser instead of an in-app webview, for a more reliable experience. FIXED • Power of Attorney screens load again after a query issue was squared away. • Find a Rep map now reliably highlights the representative you selected. • "Use Current Location" on the rep map shows a clear, actionable message when location access fails.

Comms check — and this time the VA does the talking about your record. NEW • Messaging fully kitted out: formatting, links, emoji, attachments. • Support Requests carry reference numbers and flag the moment our team replies. • Notification preferences, with messages and tasks pushed straight to you. • In-app announcement banners that refresh themselves. • Power of Attorney (21-22 / 21-22a) files straight to the VA, with live status. • Your rated conditions, percentages and presumptive status now come from the VA. • Intent to File per benefit type, listed under Other VA Submissions. • Claims step 4 submits on screen; Forms & Evidence refitted with status pills and downloads. • Share files on a need-to-know basis; accept or reject requests. • Editable appeal dates, upload confirmations, TurboNumber on My Profile. FIXED • Explore cards open again, My Rep holds the line, Support Requests load, sign-in restored.

What's New Improved • VA Facilities search now goes straight to a map-first search — tap Select to fill in the facility, no more clunky drawer • Find VA Forms shows a clear "form unavailable" message instead of a raw error • Condition details reorganized into three sections: Medical, Service Connection, and Supporting Documents • Claim statuses simplified — "Draft" now folds into "In Progress," plus a new "Response Received" status when the VA replies • Removed the "Completed" status from conditions — a condition can be reused across multiple claims, so it's never really "done" • Form titles now lead with the plain-English name, with the form number in smaller muted text below • "Next Required" now flashes the target question so it's easy to spot • Yes/No questions now sit side by side across all forms • Renamed "Tours" to "App Overview" for clarity, and fixed a wording mix-up in the Disability tour • Renamed "Support Tickets" to "Support Requests" in Settings Fixed • Documents in Trash can now be permanently deleted from grid (tile) view, not just list view • Removing a form from Claims step 3 no longer fails with "Could not remove" • The GovX button on the Offers page now routes to GovX correctly • Login now shows the real reason a sign-in failed (e.g. account temporarily locked) instead of a generic error

You earned these benefits the hard way. Claiming them shouldn't require a decoder ring, three phone calls, and a fax machine you don't own. Here's what's new: Your VA.gov account, right on the home screen. Connect once and see your status at a glance — no more guessing whether the two systems are talking to each other. (They are now. We checked.) Intent to File that actually keeps up. Your ITF now syncs live with VA.gov, so your status is never MIA. When you're eligible to file another, the app tells you — instead of you finding out three months later. Sign up without leaving the app. Creating an account used to bounce you out to a browser and back. That detour is gone. Start to finish, right here. Multiple signatures and initials. Save more than one, then pick the right one for each field. Because the signature on your mortgage and the one you scribble for a package aren't always the same. Address auto-fill. Enter it once, and forms fill themselves in. Move? Update it in one place and your profile stays squared away. Plus faster access to VA forms and submissions, and the usual under-the-hood fixes to keep things running smooth. Thank you for your service — we're honored to help you get every benefit you've earned.
