User reviews

Search Function Poor

The search function keeps causing the App to crash. Reported it a few weeks ago but it still crashes.

Doesn’t work after upgrade

After the recent upgrade, the app does not work at all. Please fix it as it is essential for court work

Sentencing Guidelines app

I use this app all the time in Court and find it easy to use. Improvements with bookmarks and other features has made it much more user friendly and intuitive. I would recommend it to other Magistrates and Court users.

An awful app

If I could give this less than 1 star, I would. Poorly written, no support, clunky to use, slow, poor search facilities, often incomplete guidelines compared to Ambay.
Just reeks of the SGC awarding the build to the lowest bidder. No surprises there then!

Love it

It’s exactly as you see if you go online.
Quick easy and user friendly. No complaints
