HighWire's multiple initiatives in the fast-growing mobile space will ensure that content gets to the user anywhere, anytime. HighWire-hosted sites are built using all the latest web standards and therefore work well and look good on mobile devices. For publishers interested in growing their mobile programs, HighWire offers a comprehensive suite of mobile options, including mobile web and app solutions.

Mobile Web
HighWire offers a mobile-optimized version of publication sites. The mobile web sites are designed for small screens such as iPhone, Android, and more. The major use cases for these smaller devices are "looking up and keeping up", meaning that features are geared towards browsing current content and doing quick searches.

Mobile Apps: iPhone, iPad and iPod touch
The HighWire full text Phone and iPad app is a native application rather than an interface. This fully-featured app is specific to the iPhone and iPad devices, with extensive article display functionality and article navigation. The use case for this app is for in-depth publication usage, regular reading and offline access. There are multiple access control options available to ensure secure availability and different sales options.

HighWire also offers an iPhone app for browsing the Table of Contents and Abstracts of a publication. This lightweight app is a great way to enter the App Store marketplace and test the waters. The use case is "keeping up" with current content. It offers a clean and easy-to-use set of functions for browsing TOCs, viewing abstracts, and listening to podcasts. Abstracts include links to the full text, which would then take the user to the website via a browser within the app. This product is available now for participating HighWire-hosted publications.

eReaders: Kindle and more
HighWire makes full text publications available through the Amazon Kindle. ePub-formatted publications and support for other ereaders is also supported.
