CourtWatch checks every tracked case daily and alerts you the moment something changes — a new filing, a status change, a judge reassignment. No more calling clerks, no more refreshing court websites, no more surprises. WHAT YOU GET • Search federal courts nationwide by case number or party name • A clear case page: court, judge, status, parties, and filing history • Daily automatic monitoring of every case you track • Push alerts when anything changes, with a full change timeline • Sign in with just your email — no passwords WHO IT'S FOR • Defendants and litigants staying on top of their own case • Families tracking a loved one's case • Victims keeping informed about an offender's case • Bail bondsmen and defense attorneys watching a client roster (Professional plan: twice-daily checks) FREE AND PREMIUM The free plan tracks one case. Premium unlocks unlimited cases and instant full-detail change alerts ($4.99/month or $39.99/year). Professional adds twice-daily monitoring for high-volume caseloads ($49.99/month). Subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled in your App Store settings. Coverage today is the U.S. federal court system; state and county courts are coming. Court data may lag official records. CourtWatch provides courtesy notifications, not legal notices, and is not legal advice — always confirm important dates with the court.
