Our verdict

Blaulichtschule wins for police cadets and active officers thanks to real police cases, backing from Germany's largest police union, and free access forever plus an affordable annual premium plan. Jurafuchs remains the right choice for a classic law degree and the state exam, thanks to the largest case library in the field.

Lead

Both apps train legal case knowledge with gamification – but for completely different audiences. We pitted the police practice app against the law tutor built for law school.

Features

Jurafuchs is the broader offering: 50,000+ interactive, exam-relevant tasks with structured solutions cover civil law, criminal law, and public law, backed by the AI tutor "Foxxy" and spaced repetition with personalized study plans. Blaulichtschule, by contrast, deliberately focuses on a single niche: 500+ real police cases and exam examples from the last 10 years, complemented by knowledge duels (Juramatch®), a timed exam simulation, and the AI feature "Einsatzbuddy."

Anyone who wants to train the entire exam-relevant curriculum for law school will find the larger case pool with Jurafuchs. Anyone learning specifically for duty and exams in police service gets more practice-oriented material with Blaulichtschule, drawn directly from everyday police work.

Value for money

Blaulichtschule has a clear edge here: basic access is free forever and ad-free, and the annual premium plan costs just €49.99, unlocking the entire case library. Jurafuchs charges from €7.99/month on the web subscription, and up to €15.99/month on the App Store subscription depending on the tier – for law enforcement officers who mainly need criminal/police law, that's a noticeably worse value than Blaulichtschule's affordable annual plan.

Verdict

For police cadets and active law enforcement, Blaulichtschule wins: real police cases, backing from the GdP, and free access forever plus an affordable annual premium plan. For the state exam, there's hardly a way around Jurafuchs – the largest case library and the AI tutor make it the top choice for a classic law degree, despite higher App Store prices.

FAQ

Can Blaulichtschule and Jurafuchs complement each other?

To some extent – both target different audiences. Blaulichtschule covers only criminal/police law for law enforcement, while Jurafuchs covers the full exam-relevant civil, criminal, and public law curriculum for law school. For police cadets with additional legal interest, combining both can make sense.

Which app is cheaper?

Blaulichtschule, by a clear margin: basic access is free forever, and the annual premium plan costs just €49.99. Jurafuchs charges from €7.99/month on the web subscription and up to €15.99/month on the App Store subscription.

Which app is better suited for a law degree?

Jurafuchs, clearly. With 50,000+ tasks, it covers all exam-relevant areas of law. Blaulichtschule covers only criminal/police law and isn't sufficient for a classic law degree.

Is Blaulichtschule or Jurafuchs available on desktop?

No, both apps are limited to iOS and Android and offer no proper iPad, Mac, or desktop use.
