Detailed Application Description
On the home page of the app, there are six sub-categories that provide different information about the series.

The Books

 * The Warriors Books are sorted into six categories by arc. They are listed vertically in order starting with the Orignal Arc and ending with the Field Guides and Manga combined into one category. Each arc has its own "shelf". Different arcs can be accessed by swiping a finger or stylus up or down. When The Books is first opened, each arc displays its first three books. Different books in an arc can be accessed by swiping left or right. When a book is tapped, the blurb of the book is App.ItW.pngded, along with several purchase options. The e-book can be bought, as well as the print edition from amazon.com, Barnes & Noble, Borders, and IndieBound. There is also an option that allows the user to mark a book if he or she has read it. The books that have been read are denoted by a red scratch mark in the lower right hand corner of the book's image. These marks are viewable in both the book's profile and the "bookshelf."

Cats and Clans

 * This category provides previously unknown information about Clans, cats, and other information about the Warriors universe.

The Cats

 * Several major characters in the Warriors Books are given small profiles. On these profiles, the cats' images from Cats of the Clans are provided. Under the pictures, the cats' Clans and former names are given. This information is in small charts on the left of the screen.


 * To the right of the charts, the cat's parents, mates, and kits are listed. For cats that either do not have one or more of these relations, or the relations are unknown, the words "none" and "unknown" are used appropriately. Under the family information, a defining moment is quoted from the books for each profile. If a profile contains more than one cat, a defining moment is quoted for only one cat. The defining moment is a very important milestone in a cat's life. Defining moments include leadership ceremonies, deaths, and epiphanies.


 * Some cats have exclusive trivia. This is listed below their defining moment. Exclusive trivia contains information that, prior to the release of the app, was unknown to the public. Exclusive trivia can include secret fears, unusual physical traits, and information about a cat's past.


 * The last section for all profiles is a link to a "bookshelf" of books in which the character or characters appeared in.


 * The succeeding text is a list of character profiles. Cats that share a profile will share the same bullet. Cats with an asterisk ( * ) next to their name have exclusive trivia.
