About rule.law
How we rank
Our own apps
rule.law runs this directory and also offers its own apps. Once live, they get the same listing, the same checks and the same place in the order as anyone else's apps. They are never placed in Featured or on top by default, and each one says it is ours. While one of our apps is a preview, it says so, does not count, takes no place among the first 25 and links to our own page.
Order
New listings come first, in an order that is the same for everyone, or in the order you choose. The rule.law badge and the Verified check mark do not change that order.
Featured
The Featured row is currently an editorial choice nobody pays for. Paid spots will always carry a Sponsored label and a rel="sponsored" link.
Review
We write each listing from the maker's own pages, read on the date shown. Makers have not yet confirmed these descriptions. We do not test quality unless a listing says so. A person checks each new submission before it is listed.
Links
The first 25 approved apps get a followed link to their site straight away. After that, any app earns one by showing the rule.law badge on its own site. Other listings get a nofollow link. That is not a judgement of the app.
