Mag+ announces February app contest, 'Unleash the Content, Build Your Dream App"; $20K in prizes

The digital publishing platform company Mag+ has announced a new contest to take place from February 8-22. "Unleash the Content, Build Your Dream App" will offer three winning entries more than $20,000 in cash and prizes for new apps submitted that use the Mag+ SDK. To register you will need a GitHub account and username.

The jury that will judge your creation is made up of Mike Haney, chief creative officer and Caleb Jaffa, lead iOS developer, both from Mag+, as well as Vini Dy, director of technology at The Wonderfactory.

Last summer Mag_+ ran a contest called "Magnify Your World" which saw the children's book Wootini win in the book category, Hi Hirvi win in the brochures and catalogs category, Scrawl Magazine win for comics, the Chicago Tribune's Redeye for the iPad win in the editorial category, Hash Magazine win in music and movies, Zone Blitz Magazine win the people's choice award, and the magazine J3Z:SE win in the self-promotion category.

For the new contest, developers will be asked to submit their .IPA files to Mag+ via Testflight.com or Dropbox.com.
