Very Convenient

This app is simple to use and very convenient to have on my iPad. If I’m composing a new document or editing one while I’m not in my office I have everything at my fingertips.
Awesome app! Please consider some modest updates:

I believe I’ll save an official review for later after I’ve more thoroughly tested the app. It’s free, and personally, I would pay the 99 cents for how good it is. There are some items I’d like you to consider: 1. With how dense the law is, it would be nice to have a CMD_F/CTRL_F function to find something specific in the text — this would be so useful to have! 2. There’s a lot of text, so reading it would be so much better if we had additional options to edit and format the text to our liking. Something like what Apple Books or the Wikipedia app does where you can change the text size, background color, and brightness of the text. As for the body of text we read, some better handling of the margins and formatting would be nice. 3. The home of the app is a search bar that you don’t even use. It would be nice to have a dashboard like the Merrimack-Webster app so that you can see all of your favorited items, book-marked pages, and maybe see developments in the news related to items you frequently search. 4. A magazine inside the app would be nice, where you can read latest developments in law. 5. Updated graphics and animations. If there’s anything on this list you can consider, it would make the app 100x better than it already is. I can understand that this app may not pull in very much money and so it isn’t cost-effective to implement new features, but please give me that search function so I can find specific words in a document! Great app!
Knowledge is Empowering

Well my dearest is an attorney, it’s truly a good thing to do reading before you engage in the services of a legal professional. This is an excellent first step. Politicians should use this app, in part to read the constitution, and in part to use more effective language.
Law Student Necessity
Zannah Montana
As a pre-law student I can say this app is an absolute necessity. It makes it so much simpler to learn and understand legal terms, making it much easier to keep up with my professors and readings during class. Having clear, accurate definitions specifically in legal terms at your fingertips is an amazing asset for students. Keep up the amazing work!
Excellent application

This is one of the instances that you need a great app to depend on. I’m glad the creators took the time to address this matter in such a mystic way in order to bring some understanding in such a complex task. Thank you for all you do and keep up the good work. Respectfully, A concern avid person
