With the increasing popularity of eBooks, readers are seeking convenience and ease in their reading experience. As a result, eBooks are being created in various formats to support different devices and platforms. For some categories of books, applications specific to devices such as iPhone, iPad, Google Android, Blackberry, and Windows Mobile are being developed to enhance the reading experience and increase sales.

At DataNZ, our team of seasoned professionals has expertise in the latest mobile technologies, content design and development, and instructional design principles. With our in-depth understanding of the publishing and eLearning industries, we help clients create feature-rich and engaging eBooks as applications.

While developing a ‘Book-as-an-APP’, we creatively use the following features and options with it:

  • Multimedia rich graphics, audio, video, animation, etc.

  • Location-aware functionalities

  • Usage of accelerometers

  • Social media connectivity with platforms like Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and LinkedIn.

While the development cost of Book-as-an-App is generally higher than the development of ePUB or PDF formats of an eBook, we strive to reduce this cost by using open standards and cross-platform/cross-device standards, and separating content from programming code whenever possible.

In addition to our quality services, we support our clients at every step of the process, from building the app to getting it approved and launching it on the App Store. Contact us today to learn more and get started on your project.
