How to Make a Magazine iPad App


Research existing magazine apps available for the iPad on the App Store. Download as many as possible, and take note of layout techniques, types of articles and any multimedia content the publisher is using.
Plan your iPad magazine app exactly as you would plan a print and paper version, taking into account the benefits and styles observed in the digital magazine apps you have researched. Create a page-by-page plan with rough sketches of how the content will be displayed, its location on the iPad's screen and how the reader will move between pages. This is known as a flat plan. It is not necessary to include the actual written content within the flat plan.
Gather the magazine's content in a word processing package such as Microsoft Word, Apple's Pages or Google Docs. Include the text only, with page breaks or separate documents for each article, feature or news item you intend to include within the magazine app. Include annotations to make clear exactly where each piece of content will fit into the flat plan.
Gather together any illustrations, images, photos or multimedia content that will support the magazine app's written content. Clearly identify where each piece of illustration will fit within the layout on your flat plan.
Take your flat plan and content to an approved iPad developer. Spend some time discussing your layout and operational requirements with the software developer, using your flat plan as a guide for how the magazine app will work. If required, make adjustments to the flat plan following the consultation with the developer.
Register as an Apple developer at the iOS Developer Program if you intend to build the magazine app yourself. As of the date of publication, registration requires a $99 fee. Once registered, download the iOS software development kit and the iPad Programming Guide and begin building your magazine app.
Distribute the magazine app to a small number of trusted iPad owners to test it. Gather feedback and bug reports from the testers, and make adjustments to the layout, operation and content as required. If there is available time and money, send the magazine out to the testers once again after initial feedback has been applied to the app. This should be carried out whether you create the app yourself, or hire a software developer to build it for you.
Submit your magazine app to Apple for approval and distribution. If you hired a developer, they may be in a better position to submit the app to Apple for you. Approval typically takes up to two weeks, after which the magazine app will be available to download from the App Store to the iPad.

How to Decide Between the Kindle and iPad (4 Steps)


Consider what you want to do with your device. If all you want to do with your device is to read newspapers, magazines and ebooks, then the Kindle is probably the right choice. If you want additional functionality beyond an e-reader, then you might consider springing a few hundred dollars extra for the iPad.
Decide how much memory you need in your device. The iPad has much more room to store data, if you plan to use the device for more than just reading.
Decide if you want a color or black and white screen. If you are only going to read on the device, black and white may be all you need. The iPad has a color screen, the Kindle has only black and white.
Review additional costs. The Kindle requires no additional service charges. The only additional fees are for downloads. The iPad can work in most locations if you upgrade to a data service plan with AT&T.
