## What is CaseJournal?

Case Notes & Clues

Capture observations, working theories, follow-up questions, leads, and important details as a case develops.

NEW – Investigative Theories

Develop multiple working theories for a case. Link supporting and contradicting evidence, people, locations, notes, and timeline events while tracking confidence as your investigation evolves.

On-Device Review

On supported devices, use Apple Intelligence to review the text-based information stored in a case.

Review can consider working theories, notes, clues, people, timeline events, locations, and user-created connections to identify supported facts, possible inconsistencies, information gaps, relationship patterns, and useful follow-up questions.

Theory Review can also analyze individual theories by examining supporting and contradicting information, related people, locations, timeline events, unanswered questions, and alternative explanations.

Review is advisory only. It does not determine guilt, identity, motive, or legal conclusions. Photo contents and voice-memo audio are not analyzed.

## Pricing and in-app purchases
