About SFST Notes
SFST Notes is an application designed for law enforcement officers who enforce DUI laws. This app allows you to take notes in the field for both standardized and non-standardized field sobriety tasks (FSTs) using easy-to-use buttons and check boxes to make note of FST clues and other indicators of impairment.
By default the three standardized tasks (HGN, 9 Step Walk and Turn, One Leg Stand) are included along with preliminary interview clues. The user has the option to add other FSTs, including Finger-to-Nose, Romberg, Alphabet Recital, Backwards Counting, and a Preliminary Breath Test (PBT). Tasks are organized in an easy-to-use tab format and you can return to each task at any time to include additional clues.
Once you complete your notes, the app will create a basic narrative detailing your observations that you may use and modify as needed for your police report. You have the option of emailing this narrative (an email client such as Google Mail is required) or saving it to your SD card.
Other special features include:
- 30 second timer included for One Leg Stand task
- Ability to account for each specific missed step on the Walk and Turn task
- Start/Stop timer included with Romberg task

Pretty good for narrative... Needs a little more options for customizing.. For example, I don't use Mr or Mrs on my narrative... So I have to go back in and change that off the suspects name in the narrative...but overall good app for a quick and detailed dwi report.

I have to edit the narrative a bit each time but this is mainly a great note taking tool. Just make sure you tap the right things on the screen at the time you observe them.

Great app. Works well. I recommend it to other officers as well. However, it is in need of updating to the current Android UI guidelines. Hasnt been updated in years.

This app has it all. I am an 18 yr LEO currently assigned as a Motor Officer in the Traffic Safety Unit. This app has proved worth its weight for SFST investigations. The designer has thought of it all.

Works great and saves time. I would love to see a stop button for timer on OLS, and a "pulse rate" tab. (i try to take pulses roadside if possible). DRE and SFST instructor

This app is great! A time saver for sure. I would recommend this to any LEO. I can not find fault. I do recommend that you pay attention to the suspect and have backup when using this live.

Dev really took the time on this one. Perfect LE tool. Takes out tons of tedious field note taking and provides detailed narrative. Worth every penny and then some!

Should add feature to create officer notes, not just a narrative. It writes a great narrative, but case would get tossed if defense found out your narrative was written for you by an app.

So far, the best LEO app tool on the market. Simple menus for the 3 batteries with additionals to boot. Easily saves about 20-30 min. of writing. (SFST Instructor with 22yrs on the street)

This it's a great app for officers working DWI. The only thing is it refers to the the tests as task, which is an ready find and replace fix.

Need to make an update for Android phones that doesn't erase entered data if you "backspace" your way out of the app. If you hit the home button, it saves it, just not the backspace button.

Awesome app!! This app is going to come in very handy. I would recommend that you make the app writable to the phones SD card. Also add everything else that people have mentioned in these reviews.

Step in right direction. Need option to add FST's i.e. Finger Count. Recorder would be nice throughout entire interview so u don't have a phone in ur hand. Option to text results to someone. Need two spots for BAC results.

Excellent app. Needs optional abilities to enter agency name, disposition of vehicle & subject.

This is the best SFST app I've came across yet. Only a few things I'd fix, just adding to the instructions: to the WAT, you need to add in the instruction to tell them to not start until you tell them to. And the other is that for the OLS, you need to add in the instructions that you only tell them to raise their foot up if their foot touches the ground. Other than those two things, great app.
