### 1/5 — Worthless app

*2025-11-14, version 3.9*

App hasn’t been updated in EIGHT YEARS. So much has changed in terms of legislation and case law development, yet this app remains out of date.

### 5/5 — Great Reference Tool

*2025-06-19, version 3.9*

Great but could use an update.

### 5/5 — Worth the money

*2025-02-15, version 3.9*

This is the best one-time purchase I've made. There are really great tools on here, and I wasn't expecting so many resources.

### 5/5 — Great tool for work

*2023-03-10, version 3.9*

Great overall app, just needs done updates to fix some links and content.

Highly recommended this for anyone in LE.

### 4/5 — Useful but there are flaws

*2021-08-12, version 3.9*

Extremely useful for my job, however would love if the cheat sheets actually opened up. Every time I click on one it says the page can’t be found. Would be nice to have access to these.

### 1/5 — Do not use this app

*2021-07-16, version 3.9*

This app was GREAT when it first came out and was ran by the original developer whom was a cop. Then he sold it (I’m guessing) and it is no longer current or kept up. No way to contact the app or they just ignore you… Do NOT waste your time or money!

### 1/5 — Unable to open or use

*2021-04-04, version 3.9*

The app will not open so I’m unable to use it now. This was a great app please bring it back!

### 1/5 — No longer works

*2021-01-25, version 3.9*

As other recent comments have stated, this app no longer works. It won’t even open.

### 3/5 — Needs Updated!

*2021-01-24, version 3.9*

The app was great when it was working; however the app no longer works and is bugged out and won’t open. Also it failed to update through time with new laws being passed.

### 1/5 — Used to be great

*2021-01-24, version 3.9*

This app was a great source of info, but now it won’t open.
