1. I wanted something that was easier to navigate than other applications I've seen, had a real table of contents broken down by articles, sections and amendments, didn't treat the first ten amendments like one giant inseparable document, was searchable, and contained other related documents, ideas, and trivia like the Declaration of Independence, Gettysburg Address, The Virginia Plan, The Great Compromise, ratification dates, and anything else I could think of that floats in that new Constellation of Liberty the Framers were shooting for two centuries ago. (see below).
2. Navigation thru sections of the constitution or articles of confederation is done using the D-pad or track ball of your device if equipped, or by swiping your finger left or right across the screen.
3. Once text is copied onto the clipboard, gestures will not be restored until you share the clipboard contents to email, or Twitter, whatever.
4. Pressing the select text menu will temporarily disable gestures (finger swipes).
5. I wanted a handy, self-contained reference to the Constitution.
6. The text selection process is is built into Android -- learn it and you have learned how to use it in this app.
7. Gestures are also restored by returning to the top level menu. - The U. S.
8. Constitution has not been updated since 1992.
9. This application is for all you constitution geeks.
10. Any updates made to the app are to improve the functionality of the app, add features, or to remove bugs. - The app contains a few hyperlinks to some source or reference material on the web, so it will ask for internet access in the permission when you install. - If you find a bug (and you want it fixed) email the developer using the link on this page, don't just leave a comment (Android secret: Developers do not read their comments).
1. Includes the Declaration of Independence, Articles of Confederation and other noteworthy documents and speeches.Any device specific bugs aside that you may encounter (it has been 2 years since updating but functions fine for me, others have mentioned newly added Android features not cooperating within the app), the dev offers a no-frills, no-nonsense, digital copy of the U.S. Constitution in an app less than 1MB, as it shoud be.
2. This App has lots more the the constitution, Bill of Right, Getty Address, Federalis papers, and much much more.Excellent! Finally a digital version that includes THE PREAMBLE TO THE BILL OF RIGHTS! That's right, the bill of rights has a preamble! The vast majority of the apps and print versions deliberately and maliciously leave it out.
3. It is a great handy reference not only for the Constitution and Amendments but also the Articles of Confederation and other important historical texts.
4. My only complaint is that it's way too easy to trigger the horizontal swipe, and the documents change a little too easily, so much so simple vertical scrolling will trigger a swipe to the next document, and then I'll lose my place when i come back.
5. Easy to use TOC and search features.Very well organized, nice layout, Needs more color, maybe a flag or something to make patriots get that "Proud To Be An American" feeling.
6. This app really helps me to understand American Constitution and few other documents in detail.
7. Perhaps the developer can institute a threshold for horizontal swipes.Simple and easy-to-use, convenient reference, with tons of associated information available.
8. I hope they don't ever change it, like so many other app makers who "ruin a good thing".This is a great app.
9. Without the preamble to the bill of rights our constitutional rights loose much of their power and meaning.
10. My only gripe is that I recently got a Samsung Note 20 Ultra, and the text selection function freezes, preventing me from selecting a portion of the text to copy.
11. Handy for checking references to the Constitution for exact language.
