How does this work?
Clicking the “Test drive now” button launches a copy of this app on Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), a web service that provides on-demand compute capacity in the cloud for developers. When you interact with the simulated phone using your mouse and keyboard, we send those inputs over the Internet to the app running on Amazon EC2 — just like your mobile device would send a finger tap to the app. Our servers then send the video and audio output from the app back to your computer. All this happens in real time, allowing you to explore the features of the app as if it were running on your mobile device.

Product Description


Product Description
Army Survival Guide
Danger lurks around every corner

You don't have to join the army to learn how to survive in a world filled with chaos. The Army Survival Guide will help you get through whatever intense situation you might encounter, whether you are caught in the crossfire of a political uprising, preparing for a zombie apocalypse, or merely headed out to the country for a weekend fishing trip.

A Little Knowledge Can Mean the Difference Between Living and Dying
Army Survival Guide
Hone your survival skills

Army Survival Guide is divided among 23 chapters covering a vast range of survival topics. Chapters include Psychology, Shelters, Water Procurement, Dangerous Animals, and Field-Expedient Weapons, Tools, and Equipment. The guide also has sections specific to harsh environments, including Desert Survival, Tropical Survival, Cold Weather Survival, and Sea Survival.

Learn How to Find a Meal... Without Becoming One

Do you know which parts of the Acacia tree are edible? Can you predict an oncoming blizzard by observing the behavior of cirrus clouds? Do you know how to identify a poisonous Brown Recluse spider? Army Survival Guide includes nine appendices that will teach you all of these things and more. Find out which plants have medicinal uses, familiarize yourself with venomous snakes and lizards, and learn how to use ropes and tie knots. A number of photos and illustrations are included.

Survive Any Situation--Internet Not Required

All of the information in Army Survival Guide is stored on your phone, so you can access it even after human civilization has collapsed and the Internet has ceased to exist. Of course, human civilization might be alive and well, and maybe you're just outside of your phone's coverage area. Additionally, there is a handy bookmarking feature that allows you to quickly jump to specific sections of the guide.

2.0 out of 5 stars FM 21-76 August 28, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase
This just appears to be FM 21-76 which you can get for free online in PDF form. The PDF is better than this "App" because you can open it in your Kindle app which allows you to search, bookmark, and lookup words. I don't recommend installing this unnecessary app.

This App is simply a poorly made Android version of the FM 21-76 (which is available as a free download).

Even discarding the fact that you can get this book for free (in many formats), this "Army Survival Guide" is missing a lot of necessary features that other Android books have.

- There is no option to zoom.
- There is no option to save (so you can't continue from where you left off, having to go back to the TOC every time).
- There are spelling and other errors in this App (check out my images for more info).
- There is no way to search other than by using the TOC.
- This is an older version of the guide than is currently available (just google FM 3-05.70).
- The App actually hung on me and required a restart.

Honestly, do yourself a favor and just get the PDF (or another) version of the FM 3-05.70. You will still be able to read this PDF on your Android device.

Being an army man, I find all the information contained within useful and practical, but paying for something I can get for free (and with more features) is just pointless.

This so called Army Survival guide is nothing but a poorly programmed copy of the FM 21-76.

Go ahead and download the free and updated FM 3-05.70 instead. It has more information and no glaring errors.

I take offense at momojo and developers like him that just want to make a quick buck from freely available materials.

This sneaky dev also has multiple dummy Amazon accounts that are tagging the real and helpful reviews as bad. Another shameful practice, but what did you expect from someone that copies the work of others in the first place?

4.0 out of 5 stars Common sense with extras
I would hate to think this is the standard issue army survival guide. Not because it's bad but it's kinda common knowledge for those of us that have half a brain.
