Pocket Studio

A narrative iOS app built around an infinite-zoom mechanic that draws you through hand-illustrated stories.

Pocket Studio tells illustrated stories through a single continuous zoom — panels flow into one another as you move deeper, turning a scroll into a journey through the seasons. I built the app in Swift and SwiftUI, collaborating closely with illustrators, copywriters, and UI/UX designers. The clip below is the actual app running in the iOS simulator.
