Ability to restrict the user to only have access to Exhibits, and an app password can be set up to prevent a user from adding or deleting evidence. This means no other apps can be accessed that would allow independent research, such as social media or the internet. The iPad shall become solely a device to view, watch, or listen to evidence. Load multiple iPad devices and distribute to jurors allowing them to review all the evidence without having to share binders and paper or organize video or audio playbacks. Jurors can review documents, photos, videos, and audio files at their own pace. They can save and annotate snapshots of documents, photos, even frames of video, to use in discussions with other jurors. With their own electronic exhibits binder, each juror can have all the trial exhibits at their fingertips, speeding up the deliberation process, and ensuring an accurate and fair review of all the evidence. Also, this software application should provide ability to introduce exhibits at deposition at user’s pace, as opposed to showing all exhibits at once, by Air Dropping one document at a time.
