Constitution App Reviews
I am a huge supporter of the U.S. Constitution. Everyone should read it. I downloaded this app becaused I wanted to have it as an easy reference so I could copy and paste quotes from the constitution into my school projects. This is a good app, but it does not have a very asteticaly pleasing design. The app icon could be better because the transperancies are dificult to read. I also wish I could see high resolution scans of the actual document.
I like this app, but it would be nice if you gave a background note to each piece of the document. Meaning we could scroll our mouse over the wording in the document and it would give us an explination and reasoning for that particlular declaration. Adding more historical infomation to the app would be nice.
Search?
Needs a full-text search feature?!?
App unexpectedly quit
Swithed to app info back to text and app quit and wont reopen.
app will not open
can you all please fix consitution for mac. it is awesome when it works...most times i just get an error and it wont open
Needs Fixes
When I first got the app it worked fine and I love the layout but after the last update, the app crashes. I cant open it and it needs to be fixed.
Free and easy to use. All Americans need to become more familiar with their Constitution. Designed by brillant minds looking back on a millennia of human governance. Properly executed it is unlike anything else on earth intentionally.
Good app
This is a nice application, however if it had dates it would be more informational and educational.
Cool to have
I thought this would be cool to have since I am studing politics. Its great becuase if I need to pull it up in class I will be able to.
I do a lot of blog reading, and this app comes in very handy when a question about our Constitution comes up. Ive had it on my dock for about two weeks and Ive referred to twice already. You can find the Constitution in many places, but never this easy.
Hancock is not included because he didnt sign it. You might be thinking about the US Declaration of Independence that is the one he is famous for signing. Good job on this application. I would love to see you implement a word search function or some other “find” capabilities.
Nice Reference
Some of the information makes for interesting reading (for example, proposed amendments).
This offers a handful of font choices, but only appears at all if helvetica is chosen. Offers Times, Times Bold, Futura, Cochin and Zapfino, but those dont work if the fonts arent installed in the system. They dont seem to be embedded within the app itself. Fonts that are installed in the system dont even show up as options, just those 6, whether installed or not. Their Declaration for Mac v1.0.1 suffers from the same problem. Nice idea. Handy to have, but poor font implementation.
Just what it is, the constitution
For a free program, awesome. It is quick, easy, and in a bigger font that the actual constitution law book. Oh, Dont forget, its free!
Nice to have an app like this for my Mac. I also have a Constitution app for the iPod Touch. The one thing I like is that you can adjust the type to make it bigger or smaller. Easy to read.
Refuses to open on my Mac. Extremely slow and unhelpful (clueless) response from developer. A waste of time. No idea how other reviewers managed to get this to display anything.
Get This One
This is great! I love it, and somedays I pull it up and read it to remind myself how great our country is.
Stopped working in Lion
I like this app but when I upgraded to Lion it stopped working as did the Declaration of Independence app.
Good to have as a (somewhat) quick reference if you need one, but would be vastly improved by a search function, and some way of annotating the text. Adding these features would really make using the app more efficient and helpful as a research tool, and Id be willing to pay a few bucks for a future version of the app that included them.
No search function. Youd get more functionality by downloading a text file for free off the Internet and opening it with Textedit. This app is literally less useful than a text file.
