In December 2008, the magazine published its first tree-less, 100% recyclable issue, printed on YUPO synthetic papers, during Design Miami/Art Basel festival at the Miami Design District, where Clear is a media partner.
Clear was 100% digital. In January 2011, it launched a 10-year anniversary application for the iPad, available globally on iTunes. This digital issue, "The Best of Clear Vol. 1" marks the 10-year anniversary of Clear. It is a compilation of the most impressive photos and features from Clear's previous years in print. This issue fills 250+ digital application pages with features such as 360 degree viewer, videos, tap-and-buy for clothing and accessories, pinch enlarge and slide shows.
In April 2011, Clear became the face of Adobe Systems Incorporated's CreativeSuite version 5.5, specifically the new Digital Publishing Suite.
"Taking Clear digital was one of the most exciting things we've done. We wanted a presence on tablet devices and Adobe Creative Suite software and Adobe Digital Publishing Suite paved the way," said Kadi. "Now, with full support for iOS 5 Newsstand subscriptions, we will be able to further monetize our digital editions and make our content more discoverable."
