Hot Studio Partners With Zinio on Publishing App and Content Approaches for Revolutionary iPad
SAN FRANCISCO, April 5 -- Hot Studio, an innovative experience design company, played a key role in designing and delivering the featured iPad app for Zinio, a global leader in digital publishing technology and services -- and the largest online newsstand in the world.
Hot Studio brought its deep understanding of experience design to the app development team, sketching a product roadmap then rapidly designing and implementing a store, a reader, and new types of content tailored for the iPad.
The free Zinio app, which was available on the iPad's App Store on the day of the device's launch, is a substantive product offering. It enables readers, publishers and advertisers to embrace a new world of interactive, full-color, multimedia magazines on the iPad. And the app offers the unique added benefit of letting readers pay once for a magazine subscription or single issue, then publish that content across different platforms and on a myriad of devices, such as tablets, smart phones, PCs and Macs.
Richard Maggiotto, Zinio Founder, President, and CEO, says, "Hot was an amazing partner on this project. Within a very tight time frame, their people integrated seamlessly with our established team and grasped the subtleties of our business, the platform for which we were designing, as well as what publishers would need from the app. I can't imagine working with a better group of seasoned, engaged professionals."
Hot Studio continues to design and develop new content modules for the iPad with Zinio and its partners, and is working with them to design and deploy additional tools and methods that will help publishers take advantage of this and other exciting, digital platform opportunities.
