### 5/5 — Essential for legal professionals, nothing else comes close

*2025-03-24*

I’ve tried just about every timeline app out there and nothing comes close to what Timeline Pad can do, especially for legal work.  It just gets it.  One of my favorite things is being able to keep events hidden on layers until I actually want to show them.  That kind of control is super helpful when in mediation or trial or reviewing the case with a witness.  The tagging feature is also great because I can sort events however I need, whether that’s by topic, witness, or issue.  I also really appreciate that everything is stored on the device.  No cloud, no need for WiFi, which is a huge deal when you’re in court or somewhere without a solid connection.  And the fact that this came as part of the LIT subscription I already have, is a win.  Really impressed with it.

### 1/5 — Lost all my 3 hours of work

*2025-03-12*

The app shut down and I lost all my 3 hours of work, never to be recovered again. Run away from this app!

**Developer response:** Hi Jim25nyc, Please know that iPadOS automatically saves all your work, and TimelinePad is designed to retain data even if the app closes unexpectedly.
