Description:

Peephole Magazine was a collaborative with 4 departments at Academy of Art University—Web Design, Illustration, Photography and Advertising.

We launched our first edition of Peephole Mag in 2012. Since then, we have garnered over 70,000 downloads in 4 years. That's pretty awesome.

In 2016, we launched Peephole Magazine 2.0, a newly revamped app that you will love. To find that app, search for "Peephole Mag 2.0" in the app store.

This app is our legacy edition, with our past 4 years of work inside of it. It's a beautiful showcase of what can be accomplished with brilliant designers, illustrators, photographers and writers.

SF People

Great insight into the people that make SF such a great city. Great layout and fun little Easter eggs hidden throughout. The UI could be a little bit more intuitive but the artwork and experience make up for it.

Amazing!

Interesting subjects, interactive content, well written and funny material. Peephole magazine is the best magazine there is to download. Worth every penny.. Oh wait, it's free! Completely free! Seriously, what are you waiting? Download it already!

Outstanding use of content and technology

This magazine is truly and by far the best I've seen so far to take full advantage of the iPad form factor. Intentionally different content depending whether the pad is held in a vertical & horizontal position, animations, 360 degree photo views, photoramas of sliding pictures, spoken text, imbedded videos & hyperlinks in a superb modern design with interesting content. It's a little buggy (i had to install it several times to get it to work & its a whopping 660mb so make sure you have enough space) but I cannot wait for next edition. I'm going to send the message to other E-Mags that they too follow your lead. Well done to you all

Brilliant!

What a fantastic magazine! Some wonderful touches that really show off the platform. This is the mag that most print designers would wish they could work on! I can't believe it's free.
AVFoundation
The AV Foundation framework provides an Objective-C interface for managing and playing audio-visual media in iOS and OS X applications.
Core Foundation Framework
Core Foundation is a framework that provides fundamental software services useful to application services, application environments, and to applications themselves. Core Foundation also provides abstractions for common data types, facilitates internationalization with Unicode string storage, and offers a suite of utilities such as plug-in support, XML property lists, URL resource access, and preferences.
Core Graphics
The Core Graphics framework is based on the Quartz advanced drawing engine. It provides low-level, lightweight 2D rendering with unmatched output fidelity. You use this framework to handle path-based drawing, transformations, color management, offscreen rendering, patterns, gradients and shadings, image data management, image creation, and image masking, as well as PDF document creation, display, and parsing.
Core Location Framework
The Core Location framework lets you determine the current location or heading associated with a device. The framework uses the available hardware to determine the user’s position and heading. You use the classes and protocols in this framework to configure and schedule the delivery of location and heading events. You can also use it to define geographic regions and monitor when the user crosses the boundaries of those regions. In iOS, you can also define a region around a Bluetooth beacon.
Foundation Framework
The Foundation framework provides a base layer of functionality for apps and frameworks, including data storage and persistence, text processing, date and time calculations, sorting and filtering, and networking. The classes, protocols, and data types defined by Foundation are used throughout the macOS, iOS, watchOS, and tvOS SDKs.
Launch Services
macOS Launch Services is an API that enables a running app to open other apps or their document files, similar to the Finder or the Dock.Launch Services eliminates apps having to query the Finder to open an app, document, or URL for them. The macOS Finder itself uses Launch Services to perform such tasks. Because the Finder performs no additional processing beyond calling Launch Services, any client using Launch Services for these purposes behaves identically to the Finder.
Quartz Core Framework
Allow users to browse, edit, and save images, using slideshows and Core Image filters.The Quartz Composer API supports processing and rendering graphical data and allows developers to create custom patches for the Quartz Composer developer tool. ImageKit provides user interface support for browsing, editing, and saving images, showing slideshows, and browsing and previewing Core Image filters. PDFKit is a technology that allows applications to display and manipulate PDF documents.
Security Framework
Secure the data your app manages. Protect information and control access to your app.
System Configuration F...
This collection of documents describes the programming interfaces of the System Configuration framework. The System Configuration framework provides functions that determine the reachability of target hosts in both a synchronous and an asynchronous manner. It also provides error detection facilities.
UIKit
The UIKit framework (UIKit.framework) provides the crucial infrastructure needed to construct and manage iOS apps. This framework provides the window and view architecture needed to manage an app’s user interface, the event handling infrastructure needed to respond to user input, and the app model needed to drive the main run loop and interact with the system.
