Bert Sierra		 Kudos for supporting an old Android 6 device like mine; and aside from benefits sloping in gradually over the first year (math which I question; but may be wrong), 5 stars for overall app quality. But then –1 star for not allowing this large app to be movable (I give one star demerit universally for this reason). Also one star demerit for initially allowing spousal analysis for free, then making it not a $2 one-time fee but subscription basis.So a harsh three stars, I know, but I’m being honest.

A Google user		 Not good enough for use. bought the upgrade and used it once but not good. then I tried to use again and it acts like I did not buy the upgrade. waste of time and money to try and get any thing out of this app.

A Google user		 This app saves you time and effort to look up lots of social security tables to get your benefit at various retirement ages. It does it for you and compares the sum of lifetime benefits under different options. It can also analyze the tax impact on other income. Good app.

A Google user		 I was looking around to find a way to compare the long range impact of starting on social security now at 63 or waiting till age 70. A friend suggested this boss app. It turned out to be just the calculator I needed. It is and excellent app to analyze all your opinions in no time. It has good graphis as well. I suggest everyone in such situation to give it a shot

A Google user		 This efficient app helps you analyze the bottom line difference of starting the benefits now or taking some more by starting it later. It also has other variables that can show how the effects of inflation and longer life.

A Google user		 I was told I could get about $2,800 a month as social security benefit now or take over $3,000 in a few months. It was a dilemma that remained confusing until I was told to check this app out. This app calculates your starting benefits at any age over 62 and projects over your life taking into account inflation and longevity that you can pick and change. This is an excellent app that everyone should use in the process of deciding on once-in-a- life option.
