XinXii’s iPhone App: Self-Publishing on the Go

XinXii1

German ebook distributor and self-publishing platform XinXii, who distributes authors’ ebooks worldwide, serves eight languages, and works in three different currencies, has been working with self-published authors internationally for some time, but yesterday announced that it was the first of its kind to offer an iPhone app interface to its platform that lets authors work from their iPhones.

“The stated objective of XinXii is to support indie authors in managing their book project not only professionally but also as conveniently as possible,” says Dr. Andrea Schober, founder and CEO of XinXii, in a statement yesterday. “The XinXii’s app for authors is an important building block. This tool allows authors to use our service flexibly outside the online platform.”

This app incorporates the mobile ability that lets authors stay on top of their sales, book dashboards, and track revenues right from their mobile phones, as well as accessing some of the features of the XinXii site. Since checking their important book data is a crucial part of the author business, this portability allows authors to maintain control over their sales data, one of the chief complaints authors have had over the years about relinquishing their books to traditional publishers.

The XinXii’s App for Authors is available for iPhone (all versions starting from iPhone 3GS and iOS 4.3) on the App Store in English ( https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/xinxii/id645485548?l=de&ls=1&mt=8) and in German ( https://itunes.apple.com/de/app/xinxii/id645485548?l=de&ls=1&mt=8) for 1,79 EUR, $ 1.99, £ 1.49. The app is available as a free download until July 14, 2013.
