iOS Books App Redesign
Based on the Apple iOS Books app, this redesigned version combines functions to streamline the user experience and incorporates new features such as a playlist option, social page, and subscription plans. Users and book authors will be able to curate and listen to song or sound effects playlists that complement books. Within the social page, users will be able to read book reviews from other users, post their own reviews, and comment on review threads. Tiered subscription plans allow users to choose a plan that suits their book reading needs.
