Alright, one evening of preparing slides, and I am in love with @caseviewerapp.bsky.social (Case Viewer). Easy to find "that ridiculous Kennedy quote," "that awesome Kagan quip" and also "that cool chart from the slip op," and quickly throw them into a PPT. Thanks @beidelson.bsky.social!!

Case Viewer is one of those tools you didn't know you needed. Apple-only for now, but it brings a simple, clean interface to reading case law, and it's finally out of beta!

We're proud to have our APIs and data integrated into the tool and we encourage folks to give it a try!

Some of Case Viewer's features are powered by the amazing data from @free.law (CourtListener). Two examples:
1. a D.C. Cir. case with embedded oral argument audio & info on all the participating judges.
2. An 8th Cir. slip opinion filed today and not yet available in almost any other database.

This is fantastic. Highly recommended.

Strong recommendation for this app! I used the beta version all the time and this new version is even more useful.

My favorite legal research tool is now in the App Store.

Seriously, if you use a Mac or iOS, check it out. Case Viewer *enormously* simplifies and improves the experience of researching freely available caselaw.

Case Viewer 1.0 is now on the App Store! After 2 years of refinement, Case Viewer is easily the fastest and most rewarding way to find and read cases. We're dropping the "beta" label and making the app widely available for macOS, iPhone, and iPad. Get it here: apps.apple.com/app/apple-st...

I'm biased, but if you're a lawyer and use a Mac, I think Case Viewer is now pretty clearly the best way to read cases. Fast, frictionless, and increasingly packed with bells and whistles. Try it out it (and pay only what you think it's worth) at caseviewer.app!

Case Viewer is great and we're proud to be supporting it. If you're on an Apple computer, give it a look!

Version 0.9.9 adds dark mode, support for Safari-style tabs, and support for CourtListener from @free.law as a data source (substituting for Caselaw Access Project, which has sunset). Other recent additions include hyperlinks & tooltips in reporter PDFs, sidebar, & more. Download at caseviewer.app!

Or in the kind words of early tester @stephenesachs.bsky.social: "Oh man this is beautiful."

You can see the app in action and download it at www.caseviewer.app. It's available on a "pay what you want" model—i.e., free if you want it to be. 3/n

It started out as a procrastination project of sorts, but IMHO, it's turned out pretty great. In fact I'm a little afraid it will prove a bigger 'contribution' than any of my law-review articles. ("This App fills a major gap in the literature?" 🙄) 2/n

So ... here's something different! Over the past couple months, I've been working on a macOS app called "Case Viewer" (www.caseviewer.app). It's something I've wanted to have since law school—a fast, frictionless tool for accessing & navigating the best available versions of judicial opinions. 1/n
