Practicing lawyers recognize the need to copy and past evidence from documents so that it can be used in legal briefs. The developers do not seem interested in making this upgrade and I would recommend other apps for attorneys who intend to incorporate written discovery in legal briefs. Updated review. I still use the platform because it is still the most convenient app for those using IPads. That said, my review is unchanged. There is a persistent glitch with the software as well where, when reviewing a large document production, if you navigate away from the app even momentarily, it will automatically move you to the last page of the file. Needless to say, this is a needlessly frustrating glitch. I have reported it to the developer numerous times over the past year. To their credit, the developer has acknowledge the problem. However, despite numerous software updates, it hasn’t corrected the glitch. Revised update 7/24/25 - Price increased to $600, company still has not fixed this glitch ### 1/5 — Keeps crashing *2025-02-11, version 25.1.1* Takes way too long to get anything done. ### 2/5 — Limited functionality *2024-05-22* The inability to copy and paste is a significant limitation on functionality. Practicing lawyers recognize the need to copy and past evidence from documents so that it can be used in legal briefs.

Although DocReviewPad can use the OCR data to search documents, it is not meant as a tool to extract text to copy into briefs. Updated response: Thank you for your continued use of the LIT SUITE, specifically DocReviewPad. The feature you are looking for is still not something that DocReviewPad was designed to do. ### 5/5 — Exceptional *2023-06-20, version 23.6.1* The time spent to organize and categorize documents saves enormous time in the long run. So helpful! ### 3/5 — Generating Reports *2023-03-19, version 23.3.1* I have been a long time fan of the apps. However, at some point, the Doc Review Pad app has a problem. No matter what I do, when I want to generate a report that just includes certain tags, the report generated includes every single tag, even when I specifically excluded it. I have been in touch with development team several times and they have indicated a fix is in the works but it has been several months. That is the feature I use most and just can’t use it in current form. Looking forward to the update. ### 2/5 — Review *2023-02-09, version 23.2.1* I wish multimedia received in discovery could be imported, such as mp3 audio files. I wish there was some more flexibility with bate-stamp fonts. (e.g. bold, Times New Roman) I use a new iMac, and the pages don't change very fast. For whatever reason, I can't directly print documents from docreviewpad. I use the iMac. I wish I could run a rpoert for the CONFIDENTIAL and PRIVILEGED issue codes to show co-counsel what I intend to withhold in discovery. Need more than 6 spaces for bate-stamp prefixes. I rather have 6 digits and 9 spaces for prefix. ### 5/5 — Easy to use document manager *2023-01-09, version 22.12.2* I run a litigation support firm, and have used several trial presentation software products. DocReviewPad is one of the best document managers out there. Though for our purposes, my firm doesn’t use DRP like an attorney would, it plays incredibly well with its companion software, TrialPad and makes the workflow of compiling a case file for our clients easy. I am incredibly happy with this software and with the developer’s responsiveness and receptiveness to feedback. 10/10 ### 2/5 — Limited functionality *2022-10-05, version 22.10.1* The inability to copy and paste is a significant limitation on functionality. Practicing lawyers recognize the need to copy and past evidence from documents so that it can be used in legal briefs. The developers do not seem interested in making this upgrade and I would recommend other apps for attorneys who intend to incorporate written discovery in legal briefs. **Developer response:** Hi LAW Arc, As we mentioned when you reached out to support, DocReviewPad is a tool to review documents, assign issue codes, add notes, apply bates numbers, create reports, export production sets, and much more. Although DocReviewPad can use the OCR data to search documents, it is not meant as a tool to extract text to copy into briefs. ### 5/5 — More than meets the eye *2022-06-20, version 22.3.1* At first I wasn’t sure how to use this app, which I downloaded as part of the suite. Watched the videos and now I use it all the time for dep prep. I can pull only the pages I need from everything I have in the app and export to TrialPad. The export is step by step and works for TrialPad or to another location for exhibit exchanges. App is amazing and fast. I also use it for my bates stamps, and just to access and search through all the docs in my case (including motions, orders, etc) which I used to do with TrialPad, but works better for me in DocreviewPad. ### 2/5 — Please improve pen detection *2022-01-26, version 22.1.2* For this price I would really expect better detection of writing instruments and writing sensitivity. Handwriting on the apps is incredibly difficult and it does not detect every other stroke. I’m working with the latest and highest capacity iPad, plus latest pen. This is an issue that not even the free apps have. It feels like I’m trying to draw with an old school mouse. ## Frequently asked questions about DocReviewPad ### What does DocReviewPad do?
