In the functional and visual design of the apps, Twipe — after extensive data analysis — focused on the key needs of the readers of the daily newspapers on digital platforms. The main goal was to consistently improve the reading experience and attract more readers to digital platforms. The new e-paper brings along a smooth user experience, top notch stability and a modern, minimalist design. In addition, the overall performance of the apps has been optimized to ensure a smooth reading experience. 

Highlights include individual user messaging via push notifications and the integration of advertisement interstitials to optimize ad sales while maintaining a premium reading experience.

Also integrated are image galleries and a read-aloud function that provides a convenient listening experience on the go.
