We are happy to announce that the Patent Arcade Patent Search app is now available for iOS. This handy tool lets you search and review patents on the go, displaying patents in both text and PDF formats.  BOTH formats include drawings, too!

Have you invented something? Do you have a great idea for a patent? Want to check to see if someone else has already come up with the same idea? Use Patent Arcade's free Patent Search tool to search the records of the United States Patent & Trademark Office.

The Patent Arcade Patent Search app is an easy to use mobile searching resource. Just type in a patent number or a few keywords and see the results in seconds.  Search results are provided by Google, so international patents are available as well.

Two ways to search: 1) type in a PATENT NUMBER or published application number, and review the patent in easily readable form on your iOS device; 2) search FULL TEXT by entering any search term you want and instantly see the results. PDFs of the original documents are also available.

As an added bonus, quick access to the Patent Arcade legal blog is also included within the app.  No legal services are provided. App is for informational use only.
