SCOTUSWatch

by Scott Angstreich

5.0 (2) v2.1 2 MB Universal 12+

Description

The Supreme Court doesn't always announce when it publishes. SCOTUSWatch does.

SCOTUSWatch monitors the Supreme Court's website and sends you a push notification when new documents appear — slip opinions, order lists, shadow docket rulings, miscellaneous orders, and more. No polling. No refresh. Just alerts when the Court acts.

WHAT YOU GET
• Push notifications for every new Supreme Court document
• Watched Cases — track specific cases, get notified when the Court acts on them, and access the full docket with the built-in PDF viewer
• AI-generated plain-language summaries of opinions and orders, with topic tags for quick identification (optional)
• Full document type coverage: Slip Opinions, Order Lists, Opinions Relating to Orders, Miscellaneous Orders, and In-Chambers Opinions
• Clean, focused reading experience — no clutter, no commentary
• Full Term overview — searchable and sortable by document type, month, and Slip Opinion author

FOR LAWYERS, JOURNALISTS, AND COURT WATCHERS

Whether you're a litigator tracking cert grants, a reporter covering the Court, a law student following a landmark case, or just a curious citizen — SCOTUSWatch puts you in the front row, no matter where you are.

WATCHED CASES

Add any case to your watchlist and SCOTUSWatch tracks it three ways. You'll get a push notification when an order list affects the case — a cert grant, denial, or other action. You can browse the full docket and open petitions, briefs, and motions in the built-in PDF viewer. And you can subscribe to real-time docket push: once any user signs up for a case, all users watching it receive pushes within seconds of new activity at the Court.

ABOUT AI SUMMARIES

When enabled, SCOTUSWatch uses AI to generate plain-language summaries of new opinions and orders, along with a short topic tag identifying the area of law. Summaries are clearly labeled and intended to help you quickly understand what was decided — not to replace the original document. AI summaries may contain errors or omissions; always refer to the official Court document for authoritative text.

SCOTUSWatch is an independent app and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Supreme Court of the United States.

What's new (v2.1)

NEW FEATURE: Watched Cases
Watch specific Supreme Court cases and get alerted three ways:

• Order list notifications — receive a push notification immediately when an order list grants or denies certiorari (or otherwise affects) a case you're watching.
• Docket access — view the full docket history for any watched case and open petitions, briefs, and motions in the built-in PDF viewer.
• Real-time docket push — optionally subscribe to instant push notifications for new docket entries. Once any user signs up for a case, all users watching it receive pushes within seconds of new activity at the Court.

NEW FEATURE: AI-Generated Topic Tags for Opinions
• If AI summaries are enabled, the app now displays a short AI-generated subject label — "1st Am.", "ERISA", "Immigration", etc. — so you can identify the area of law at a glance.

Plus:
• New navigation menu gives quick access to all sections of the app
• Guided onboarding for new users
• Settings updates — separate notification toggles for miscellaneous orders in capital and non-capital cases
• Diagnostic logging and in-app bug reporting — if something goes wrong, you can send a log directly from the app
