Weekly update— June 1
While the air has been buzzing with the announcement of the first Book ICO and we are just as excited as our community, we've had some more exciting announcements just at the end of the week, so here is the recap!
iOS Release
Recently the community has been fairly vocal asking about the status of the iOS app and we were happy to announce the release of Publica e-reader app iOS version this week!
You can get it on the App Store right now!
Exciting for both us and the community.
The iOS version has slight differences from the Android version in this stage — namely you can't buy books on the iOS e-reader. Fret not, a solution to this is the release of the Publica Web store, where you can buy the books and the read them on the iOS or Android devices.

Web store release
The second exciting announcement for this week was the release of the web version of the Publica store.
While this by no means is the final version of the store and many changes will be made over time, the release at this time will allow the iOS users to utilize this to buy books!

World’s first book ICO.
We'd be surprised if you've missed it — we recently announced the World's first Book ICO!
The American bestselling author Matthew “Nomadic Matt” Kepnes is running the Book ICO for his upcoming book — “Backpacker's guide to Europe”.
The ICO will start NEXT WEEK, on June 6th. That is less than 6 days left!
If you haven’t done that already, we encourage you to go to the ICO announcement page and subscribe to the Book ICO so you wouldn't miss it when it comes.
