About the App

The Introducing Graphic Guide app is free to download, and enables you to enjoy a 30 page preview all of the available titles. If you want to continue reading, you can then purchase them directly inside the app, where theyll be displayed under My Guides. Notes, Comments and Stats are all tracked across the entire series, enabling you to grow your collection all in one app.

The reading experience for each title is more than just a direct conversion of the print edition. It is an adaptation of the content into a look-and-feel tailor made for the iPhone. Each page is broken down to be easily read on a smaller screen. All illustrations are animated to further drive the narrative, and to help clarify some very challenging ideas. This approach, named Story View, offers a completely unique way to enjoy the Introducing Graphic Guide series.

For those who prefer the original book format, the iPad version also includes Classic View, which presents the pages exactly as they appear in the print version. Rotating the iPad allows readers to view one page at a time in portrait, or two at a time in landscape.

- Reading Across Devices & Platforms
- Free Previews of Every Published Title
- Complete Chapter Index
