For an HCav serving or Association member to register for the app you will need a GROUP ACCESS CODE that has been provided in October emails from your Association. Or you can request this from your Association secretaries or by emailing robin@allegr.org
Step 1
Download the Military App (or Updating the Military App)
The first step is to download the app (this process is the same if you want to update the app - just click Update instead of Install). Please click the correct link below from your phone to take you to the App / Play Store to download and install the Military App.
(if you cannot use this link you can also try searching for "Military App" in your App Store)
Step 2
Register as a Member
From the main sign-in page of the app near the bottom select “No account yet? Register”
Then fill in your first and last name and email. When you type in your email please double check for typos or errors as this can cause members a delay.
Then select your Regiment: (examples below)
For veterans of the Life Guards for example this would be The Life Guards Association.
For members still serving in the Blues and Royals for example this would be Serving Blues and Royals.
For partners and family of a HCav member this would be HCav Partners and Family.
For people not in any of these groups please select Other.
For those selecting HCav Partners and Family or Other please add a note in the additional box.
After selecting your Regiment you will be asked to fill in your GROUP CODE. This will have been sent to you initially in an email from your Association or Unit. If you do not have this you can request it from a HCav Association Secretary or by emailing robin@allegr.org
Step 3
Activate your Account
By completing registration in Step 2 you will have been sent an automatic email from hello@militaryapp.org with your 6 digit Unique Verification Code.
Select Activate my Account from the bottom of the main sign in page and on the next page please type or paste in your Unique Verification Code.
Then proceed to set up your profile details.

Please ensure you are using a smart phone and not an iPad or different device. If the problem persists and you have asked a friend or family member to check, please contact robin@allegr.org

If you cannot find it please email robin@allegr.org stating “Can’t Find Code”
