The Glass Magazine was a fashion and art magazine with a successful WordPress website. The problem that they were encountering however was that as mobile devices became more prevalent with their readers, so did the demand for mobile access to their content.
Instead of using an newsstand downloadable version of their magazine, the owners of Glass opted for a mobile app made with IdeaPress that would allow them to provide their viewers with a constant stream of new articles and issues instead of forcing them to wait for a monthly edition. On top of that, with their new app, the people at Glass could respond to comments and requests made from the app to help deliver better content to their viewers.
Overall, creating their app with IdeaPress allowed Glass Magazine to convert their content into the mobile world, while giving their viewers the ability to better dictate the direction the magazine would take in the future.
