A copy-protected bookstore — eBooks, audiobooks and print in one app.

Klinikum sells every format a bookstore carries from one bilingual catalogue. Digital titles are protected with DRM and locked to one active device, read in a built-in eBook reader or played in an audiobook player, and the store runs its content, markets and orders from one admin panel.

Sales, readership and revenue are the client's to share, and they are not on this page — the figures on the screens above are sample data. What is on this page is what was built and why it was built that way.

The Context

Bringing a bookstore's print and digital catalogue into one app.

Klinikum is a bookstore that sells eBooks, audiobooks and physical books. Readers browse by category, open a book to see its pages, language, cover and price, read the synopsis and reviews, and either buy it, read it in the app or listen to it — in Arabic or English, with guest browsing before they sign up.

The brief was one mobile app for readers and an admin panel for the store, serving content across more than one country — with the protection that would let the store put its digital titles on sale at all.

The Challenge

Digital titles couldn't go on sale without being copied or shared.

A printed book is sold once to one reader. A digital file can be copied, screenshotted or opened on every phone a shared account is signed in to — so each eBook or audiobook the store sold risked becoming many, and the copyright holders' terms couldn't be kept.

The store also needed print and digital in one place, in Arabic and English, across more than one market — not a separate shop for each format.

Our Approach

Protect every title first, then sell every format around it.

Klinikum keeps digital titles inside the app and on one device, and builds the storefront, reader and player around that protection.

DRM on every digital title.

eBooks and audiobooks are delivered under DRM and opened only inside the app, and screenshots are disabled in the eBook reader.

One account, one active device.

Secure sign-in with single-device session enforcement, and a My Library that is locked to that session — so a purchase can't be shared across phones.

A reader and a player built in.

The eBook reader has night mode and syncs reading progress; the audiobook player streams or downloads, keeps playing in the background and saves bookmarks.

Every format in one storefront.

eBooks, audiobooks and print share one catalogue, with category browsing and filters, a cart, checkout through UPayments and order history.

Bilingual and multi-market.

Arabic and English with full RTL layouts, and a country and market selector that shapes the home screen for each region.

An admin panel over content, markets and orders.

The store manages its content, users, markets and orders, reads its analytics, and controls DRM and security settings from one dashboard.

What This Means in Practice

What this means in practice.

01

eBooks, audiobooks and print sell through one platform instead of separate channels.

02

Digital titles stay under DRM, inside the app, with screenshots disabled in the reader.

03

Each account is limited to one active device, so purchases can't be passed around.

04

Readers read and listen in the app — with night mode, synced progress and offline audio.

05

Arabic and English readers get the same store, with full RTL.

06

The store runs content, markets, users and orders from one admin panel.

Under the Hood

DRM Integration

Licensed, in-app-only access to every eBook and audiobook.

Single-Device Sessions

One active device per account; the library locks to it.

UPayments

Checkout for eBooks, audiobooks and print.

Push Notifications

New titles, offers and order updates.

Want to sell digital books without them being copied?

Built for Every Platform

One app for readers, one panel for the store.

The app and the admin panel share one backend, so a title, a market or an order is the same record for the reader who bought it and the team that manages it.
