Worthless unless you pay monthly
As above. Would be happy to pay outright for this but as usual and like most other apps it’s gone down the route of a subscription.
Started great now subscription.
Paid for a premium app used every day. Now I haven’t used it in years. Dip in to check one law and can’t see or use a thing without subscribing.
I’m sure that’s fine if you use it a lot but after paying a one off price it’s infuriating in my use case.

Greedy
Have to pay to even view anything. What’s the point of even having a standard mode. Just have the pro. Very greedy
Doesn’t work
Had to cancel as app stopped recognising that I had a subscription - great app when it worked
Subscription fees
Pay for the app and then expected to pay £1.99 a month to access anything on the app…
RIP off
I pad for this app to check legislation. Then when I came to search and select it I was told I had to ‘upgrade’ to a monthly fee (on top of the initial purchase price) to access. Absolute con.
Used to be great
Won’t run on the new iPhone so paying a subscription for nothing!
Disappointing App
I bought this app when it was an upfront fee which was reasonable. The app has now paywalled 99% of the content behind a subscription fee making it a pretty useless app if you don’t want to fork out extra money now that you’ve already paid up front.
Unreliable, switched to a better alternative
I tried Pocket Sergeant on my iPhone, but it frequently failed to load and didn’t remember my subscription. Because of this, I couldn’t access the features I needed. I’ve decided to cancel and use a more reliable tool that better meets my needs. Truthfully i now use AI. Plus with onenote, I have most of my templates and case file checklists at hand.
I will still support the podcast though

Ruined by cash walls
Everything useful is now hidden behind paywall subscriptions. Makes this app practically useless for quick reference now. Shame as I now don’t see the point of keeping it after I paid for it.
added subscriptions to access anything
£2 a month
Paywall
I used to use this app every day and I’d paid for it and the content inside the app. Now they have added subscription and hidden half the offenses behind a paywall that were previously viewable for my original price paid. Feel robbed.
Shame
Now the paywall is even bigger and the pushyness for cash is too
Subscription should not be reminded each time you log in
Decent app but each time you open it, it continually asks for a subscription. If users want to subscription for 99p then they will. Being bombarded constantly isn't the way to "sell" an app. You can argue about updated legislation etc etc and keeping app updated however that shouldn't mean I have to keep seeing a reminder to subscribe. I've already paid £4 for it. Either make it a subscription app or a direct one-time payment app
New update :
I have deleted the app due to not being able to access any content due subscription. Total waste at this time

Unusable
Thank you for making this app literally unusable without a subscription… I had it for about 6 years and with every update you have put more and more restrictions on it to force the users to get the subscription. Well this became pretty annoying so I decided to delete it and move to the competition, Duty Pro, which does a very good job and I’m happy with.

Absolutely amazing
Worth its weight in gold, I can assure everyone that on the job this will help you in several ways possible
Fantastic Application
I have used this app for a number of years and found it extremely useful. There is no other app that comes even close. Worth every penny. Keep up the wonderful work guys.
Sad it’s behind a paywall, but I get it.
I bought Pocket Sergeant about five years ago now I think. I used it almost daily when I was working on response. The only reason I haven’t given it five stars is because the content is behind a paywall. I understand why they had to move in that direction, but I’m sad about it nonetheless. I do think the subscription will be worth it for anyone who is looking up legislation frequently though.

Amazing !
A fantastic tool which has helped me hugely. A tool so vital, I have seen it upgraded over the years and now the content and fluidity is far better. Worth the subscription,
Invaluable resource
I have used this for years as a PC and a Sgt. It’s a quick guide when in custody to get the correct offence codes and a simple way to find offence wordings. The small monthly fee is well worth it to save fighting with PNLD.
