As professional web designers, we need to keep ourselves up to date with the newest technology or risk falling behind. It is in your best interest to utilize the success of apps for phones and tablets. Assignment This project requires you to invent and design your own app. This app should be new and exciting. People should want to download your app. You should know the iPad's capabilities in order to understand what it can do. This is where your iPad research comes in.
