Pocket Brainbook for Police

Pocket Brainbook is the field reference built for law enforcement officers. Set your state, county and city once, and the codes and references you need are there on the job — most of it working without a signal.
  
Made for cops, by cops, since 2010.

NOT A GOVERNMENT APP

Pocket Brainbook is an independent reference app published by DCG Holding Company. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or an official publication of any government agency, court, or law enforcement organization. Codes and statutes here are compiled from public sources and may be summarized or out of date. Always verify against the official source. A full list of official source links for all 50 states, D.C. and U.S. territories is in the app under More > "Sources & Legal."
