TrialPad is an app for your iPad that allows you to present documents and movies, in real time, to a jury, court or at a seminar.
This app allows you to show and highlight relevant documents in a way that emphasizes and clarifies. What is seen on your iPad can be projected on to a screen and you or the witness can annotate, draw and zoom in on relevant portions of the materials you want to show.
You can watch some demo videos to get a sense of what this app is capable of doing or review the FAQs.
The update and fixes for this version include:
Callouts:
- You can create a Callout on document that you have zoomed in on.
- You can now annotate (Highlight, Pen, Redact) on a callout, and annotations will be reflected on the underlying document.
- Callout(s) will be saved as part of the Key Doc to allow the re-display of an annotated document with the callout.
- Callouts will still be moveable/removable in the Key Doc.
Backup:
- Create Case Archive (found in Cases area under New Case popup).
- This will create a backup of an existing case, including Key Docs and any annotations.
- Archived case can be transferred to your computer via iTunes.
- Backup case can be restored to another iPad running TrialPad 3.0 or later.
Exhibit Stickers:
- In the Rename dialog you can assign an exhibit number and sticker to a document.
- Exhibit stickers will display on documents, and corresponding Key Docs, with choices for placement and color.
- Exhibit numbers will appear in document list, and in the Evidence Report (see below).
Audio Files:
- Support for audio files such as 911 recordings (file format has to be supported by the iPad).
- Will operate the same way as video.
War Room Mode:
- Now War Room Mode stays on until you exit TrialPad app (it used to turn off on exiting of case).
- You can now switch cases without War Room Mode remaining on to show TrialPad’s interface to an audience.
- This is for demonstrating, training, or in actual war room situation.
Interface:
- You can now collapse the document list in landscape view to give a larger view of your document.
- Document view can be collapsed while in presentation mode without affecting the presentation output.
- You can now create and name a new folder in one step.
- Folders can be assigned different colors and icons for better organization and visual reference.
- Long file or folder names will automatically get smaller font sizes to avoid being truncated.
- Added “Open In…” to Send menu so documents can be opened in another app.
Tools:
- A single-tap on a tool will allow for one use, and a double-tap will allow for multiple uses of one tool.
- A new Lock Annotation Tools option in Settings will allow for each tool to stay on until the tool is turned off, or another tool is selected.
Evidence Report:
- Creates full report of all evidence files in a case as a PDF file.
- Includes information such as file name, number of pages, exhibit number, size, and path location.
- Separate report sections for Documents, Multimedia, and Key Docs.
- Can be viewed within TrialPad, emailed, or printed.
WedDAV:
- Support for WebDAV has been implemented by request from large firms and government agencies.
- Documents can also be uploaded to a WebDAV server.
Zip File Support:
- Support for zip files so you can import multiple files in a zipped archive via email or iTunes, and keep file and folder structure intact.
Other Minor Changes:
- TrialPad title and version number on Cases screen for uniformity with TranscriptPad.
- New and improved Dropbox integration.
- Documents/Video/Key Docs tabs are changed to Documents/Multimedia/Key Docs.
Plus bug fix regarding large file count, and general speed and optimization improvements.
