Constitution of South Africa

The supreme law of the Republic, in your pocket — and it opens with no internet at all. SA Constitution puts the complete text of the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa, 1996 on your phone — from the opening words of the Preamble to the Schedules at the back — laid out for reading rather than scrolling through a PDF. WHAT IS INSIDE • The Preamble, set line by line as it was written • All 14 chapters and 244 sections, from Founding Provisions to General Provisions • The Bill of Rights in full — 33 sections covering equality, human dignity, life, privacy, freedom of expression, housing, health care, education, language and more • All 10 Schedules, including the national flag, the oaths and solemn affirmations of office, election procedures, and the functional areas of national and provincial competence • Amendment notes printed under the sections they changed, current to the Constitution Eighteenth Amendment Act, 2023 BUILT FOR READING Sections are rendered the way the printed Act reads: numbered subsections and lettered paragraphs with hanging indents, instead of one wall of text. Adjust the text size to suit you, listen to any section read aloud, and switch to a dark page for night reading. FIND YOUR WAY • Search every section by keyword or jump straight to a section number • Browse chapters on a numbered timeline with section ranges at a glance • Open the Bill of Rights as a grid of rights, filtered by theme: equality and dignity, freedoms, civic and political, socio-economic, culture and language, justice • Move between neighbouring sections without returning to the list KEEP WHAT MATTERS • Bookmark sections and add your own private notes • Pick up where you left off with recent sections • A different Section of the Day each day, plus the founding values of section 1 • Flashcards for revising section titles before an exam or interview WORKS ANYWHERE Everything is stored in the app, so it opens with no signal and no data charges — useful in a lecture hall, a courtroom corridor, or a taxi. No account, no sign-up. Your bookmarks and notes stay on your device. WHO IT IS FOR Law and public administration students, advocates and attorneys, paralegals, educators, journalists, civil servants, community and human rights workers — and any citizen who wants to know what the Constitution actually says about their rights.
