Interactive Mass-texting Becomes Easier with PhoneTree Messenger for iOS - Published on 09/29/11

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Utah based Avikey Software today announces PhoneTree Messenger 4.0, an update to their popular social networking app for iOS devices. PhoneTree Messenger strives to facilitate the way iOS users communicate with large groups of people. The powerful features as the ability to import large contact lists directly from Excel, the ability to specify the start time of a message broadcast, make it a serious tool for business users and marketing groups as well.

Ogden, Utah - Avikey Software today is pleased to announce the release and immediate availability of an updated version of PhoneTree Messenger for iPhone and iPod touch. The app strives to facilitate the way iOS users communicate with large groups of people. The new version includes powerful new features, including the ability to import large contact lists directly from Excel, the ability to specify the start time of a message broadcast, and promises smoother user experience than ever before.

PhoneTree Messenger gives user a simple tool to deliver messages to hundreds of people simultaneously by automatically sending out emails, text messages, and phone calls to an entire group. The app offers three unique ways to communicate interactively: Simple Broadcast, Confirmed Delivery and Survey.

Simple Broadcast blasts out a text-message, phone-call, and email to everyone on the user's list. However, for times when it's important for the user to know who received the message and who didn't, Confirmed Delivery mode will ask each recipient to confirm receipt and provide reports showing who has received the message and who hasn't. PhoneTree Messenger will keep trying to contact recipients until they get the message. For users seeking a way to get immediate feedback from a large group of people, Survey Mode provides a powerful way to poll contacts and report on the results. This option comes in handy when inviting guests to a birthday Party or notifying a soccer team about changes to an upcoming practice.

PhoneTree Messenger doesn't use any minutes or text messages user's cell phone plan. The simple interface makes it great for casual use, but powerful features make it a serious tool for business users and marketing groups as well.

"Getting a message out to lots of people can be a real problem. We wanted to provide users with a tool that makes the phone calls, sends the text messages, and delivers the emails so they didn't have to. We also wanted to make sure they had the ability to see who got the message, and even give them tools to automatically ask their contacts questions and report on the results. There's nothing else like this in the market and we couldn't be more excited about this new version." - says Gary Shellabarger, co-founder of Avikey Software.

Essay Writing Apps Receive High Praise from Students and Teachers - Published on 09/29/11

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Niles Technology Group's apps, for the iPad and iPhone, have transformed how students learn to write essays. The difficult task of writing is now a fluid process that simultaneously teaches critical thinking and logic. Schools use the apps to fulfill writing curricula with one comprehensive, student-friendly product, and parents are spiritedly gifting the apps to their children, from middle school to college. Niles Technology apps are the new standard for developing superior writing skills.

Charlottesville, Virginia - Niles Technology Group's apps, for the iPad and iPhone, have transformed how students learn to write essays. The difficult task of writing is now a fluid process that simultaneously teaches critical thinking and logic. Schools use the apps to fulfill writing curricula with one comprehensive, student-friendly product, and parents are spiritedly gifting the apps to their children, from middle school to college. Niles Technology apps are the new standard for developing superior writing skills.

The glowing accolades confirm that Niles Technology apps achieve their goals and more. "We created the apps to do two things: 1) to reduce the stress that students experience when writing, and 2) to teach students that critical thinking and reflexive thinking are integral to writing well," explains Michael A. Niles, president of Niles Technology Group. "By incorporating proven teaching pedagogy with a healthy dose of critical thinking structure, students learn that writing is not really about sentences, but mainly about intelligent communication and argument development; in short, writing is about thinking well."

Reviews, from both students and teachers, mention the same strengths - the excellence of the instructional content and the usefulness of the functionalities. Built upon a similar core design, Middle School Writing, High School Writing and Essay Workstation apps continuously help students advance their writing skills at each grade level.

Examples of what users say about the apps are:

"This app seems to be amazing. So many different types. Ohio State isn't getting easier, so this is coming in handy." By Andydew (iTunes Review) about Essay Writing Workstation

"Hands down the best writing help I have seen. The app answers every question it seems and is more like an encyclopedia than a handbook. I have spent more $$$ in bookstores and never got this much. Expensive app but worth every penny." By J. Parks (iTunes Review) about Essay Czar eTextbook

"I bought Middle School Writing about a month ago [for my son] and liked it very much. I found the writing steps very explicit and useful." By F. L., College Writing Professor, California (via email) about Middle School Writing

"New to mobile technology, but a veteran of teaching. The people who wrote and developed this app must have lots of respect for students because the material is amazingly written to talk to students, yet is not dumb-downed in any way....this is one of the best explanations of and directions for outlining that I have ever read, and I have read many ... Parents and schools, if you want your children "thinking" writing, this app is a great place to start. It teaches the right lessons. By OldDog_NewTricks (iTunes Review) about Middle School Writing

".....I would give it more than 5 stars if it were possible ... the app is more than I expected." By crazi_kid (iTunes Review) about Essay Writing Workstation

Schools and teachers have discovered the efficacy of Niles Technology apps. Each month the volume purchase of the apps increase, which indicates that the use of mobile apps in schools is becoming more commonplace. Parents have also caught on because Essay Workstation is the No. 1 gifted app in the Niles inventory. For the lower grades, Middle School Writing has become a solid No. 2 bestseller, with both parents and schools purchasing the app. The Niles app catalog can be seen in the App Store by simply entering "Niles" in the iTunes search

The incorporation of mobile learning into today's classroom is moving into high gear, and Niles Technology Group is dedicated to providing top-of-the-line educational apps that fit into students' mobile lifestyles.

3.: The most advanced video recording + camera app for iOS: Camera Boost

Posted by: "prMac Mailer" prservices@prmac.com

The most advanced video recording + camera app for iOS: Camera Boost 2 - Published on 09/29/11

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

UK based developers Interealtime today release Camera Boost 2.0, a major update to their acclaimed and highly popular iPad 2 app. Camera Boost offers extraordinary video processing capable of an unlimited number of effects in realtime, on Apple's iPad 2. Instead of first taking the photo and then adjusting and filtering it, you apply effects and adjust your pictures while you're actually taking them. You get to see the final photo before you take it, the finished article right there in the lens.

Cheshire, United Kingdom - iOS developers Interealtime today launched a major update to their acclaimed and highly popular iPad 2 app, Camera Boost. Version 2 contains some very innovative technology that seriously improves an already innovative app.

The original Camera Boost, released in April 2011 was a brand new concept in photography with a new creative process. Instead of first taking the photo and then adjusting and filtering it, you apply effects and adjust your pictures while you're actually taking them. The effects are shown live in the camera view. You get to see the final photo before you take it, the finished article right there in the lens.

Version 2 takes this concept much further: you can now record video too. In HD, at full speed, with many new effects including noise reduction and HDR. You can apply any number of effects and adjust any image control during recording. For example, it's now possible to change color balance and lighting contrast during recording, apply color filters or reduce image noise, plus use a range of advanced effects. A whole new world of artistic freedom opens up.

There's another major advantage over most camera apps. There is no restrictive list of fixed, standard filters - you're free to turn the various effects on and off and adjust a wide range of image controls at will, effectively giving an unlimited number of variations. There is a preset list with lots of popular styles too, but you're free to edit this list and create your own new presets.

One of the most useful aspects of the app is image enhancement. The iPad 2's cameras are not perfect and can produce quite noisy pictures, especially in poor lighting. Camera Boost 2 can help. It includes noise reduction technology designed to reduce the noise level while preserving picture clarity - and of course, this works during recording with live preview. It can also correct white balance and exposure, in addition to supporting tap-to-expose.

Popular "retro" style effects in Camera Boost 2 are powerful and highly adjustable. Color saturation can be reduced to "wash out" the image, lighting can be brightened, contrast turned down to fade the image, and convenient control pads can be used to very simply alter colors to achieve cross-processing effects, aged film, sepia and so on. There's even a focus control to get those soft lens effects and sharp gritty looks.

Interealtime have spent the last 6 months creating a remarkable new video processing system called "Unlimited FX Engine" (UFX). This is the new technology that powers Camera Boost 2, and is perhaps the most amazing part of the app. This system processes live video, and can apply an unlimited number of effects simultaneously. It does that with HD video, at 30fps, and never slows down - even when recording high quality HD video to disk with a dozen effects applied. That means there's never a delay when taking a picture or saving a video - no "Please wait" or "Developing..." messages, everything is always instant.

If you are interested in covering or reviewing Camera Boost in your publication, please contact us for a free download code. We make some bold claims about our technology, and we think you really need to experience Camera Boost first hand to see what we have achieved.

Device Requirements:
* Compatible with all iPad 2 models
* Requires iOS 4.3 or later
* 1.1 MB download

Pricing and Availability:
Camera Boost 2.0 is $4.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Photography category.

St. Petersburg, Russia - Nevosoft, a top Russian casual game developer and publisher, today is pleased to announce the release of their game Pantheon - puzzle arcade for iPhone/iPad. Pantheon is set in ancient India, and is sending players on a quest to discover fantastically mystical land Ancient India, matching gems and unlocking artifacts as you go.

At each level players will find a new riddle including precious stones. You merely tap on groups of colored gems which, when clumps of two or more are adjacent to one another are selected, they disappear from play and, following gravity's rules, make way for those stacked above. Predictably, the goal of each stage involves eliminating all of the shaded squares by making matches on them before a burning candle time meter runs out. Succeed, and you move onto the next stage, with new gods added to your collection every few levels. Fail, and you'll lose one of four lives, with the game ending when the supply runs out.

Production values remain high as ever, play is eminently enjoyable and the overall degree of polish doesn't disappoint. Special attention should be given to the title's general theme. For a country of over 1 billion, and with such a rich and vibrant history, it's a wonder India doesn't receive more attention from game developers.

* Addictive logical gameplay: easy to start but hard to stop
* Incremental increases in the game's complexity

10.: PocketCAS Mathematics Software updated to 2.9.1 - 40% Off for One We

Posted by: "prMac Mailer" prservices@prmac.com

Thu Sep 29, 2011 7:32 am (PDT)

PocketCAS Mathematics Software updated to 2.9.1 - 40% Off for One Week - Published on 09/29/11

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

EUROCOMP has announced PocketCAS 2.9.1, an update to its award winning mathematics software for iPad, iPhone and iPod touch. PocketCAS is a very advanced computer algebra system which turns an iPhone or iPod touch into a device capable of calculating complicated mathematical problems in just seconds. The main target group are scientists, mathematicians and students. Version 2.9.1 brings compatibility with the next version of iOS, bug fixes and usability improvements.

Windeck, Germany - EUROCOMP has announced the release of version 2.9.1 of its award winning mathematics software PocketCAS for iPad, iPhone and iPod touch. The new version is compatible with the next version of iOS and brings usability improvements as well as bug fixes. This new release is available for 40% less only this week, starting today.

PocketCAS is a very advanced computer algebra system which turns an iPhone or iPod touch into a device capable of calculating complicated mathematical problems in just seconds. The main target group are scientists, mathematicians and students. PocketCAS makes their everyday work a lot easier. Apart from calculating symbolic derivatives and taylor series expansions as well as plotting cartesian and polar functions, PocketCAS computes symbolic integrals, simplifies expressions and does advanced linear algebra. A vast amount of more than 500 functions enable PocketCAS to solve almost every mathematical problem.

The integrated function plotter makes it easy to visualize formulas. Users can graph cartesian as well as polar functions without having to worry about plot settings. Ease of use has always been EUROCOMP's main goal developing software. PocketCAS ships with ten tutorials. There's also an easily accessible and clear searchable list of all available functions. The list is combined with examples and syntax information for almost every available function.

Special care has been taken in order to make text input a breeze. When working with a CAS, there's a lot of different functions one might want to enter (PocketCAS is a lot more powerful than a regular scientific calculator). The iPhone's touchscreen is not very large and as much space as possible should be available for the calculations. PocketCAS therefore introduces a special mathematical keyboard with different sections. When tapping a function's key, it will be entered including braces, with the cursor in between. If text was selected prior to pressing a function key, the previously selected text will automatically be used as the argument for the entered function.

PocketCAS makes it easy to compose physical formulas. Built-in constants and physical units allow to enter formulas from a textbook without having to substitute constants manually. Entering large matrices by hand can be a huge pain. PocketCAS' visual matrix editor assists with this task.

PocketCAS is available in two different versions. For many uses, the free version PocketCAS lite may be sufficient. It serves as a great scientific calculator and allows to plot one function at a time. PocketCAS pro adds more sophisticated CAS functions like symbolic integration and advanced linear algebra and also plots multiple functions at once.

Device Requirements:
* iPad, iPhone or iPod touch
* Requires iPhone OS 3.0 or later
* 7 MB

Pricing and Availability:
PocketCAS lite and PocketCAS pro are available in the App Store. For more detailed information, please have a look at the PocketCAS homepage. Qualified reviewers are welcome to ask for a free promo code. Should you find PocketCAS worth a note, we'd be more than happy to receive a short reference via email. The application icon, screenshots and more press material are available from the application's website.

13.: CultofMac.com Launches Innovative Deal Hub For Killer Software Savin

Posted by: "prMac Mailer" prservices@prmac.com

Thu Sep 29, 2011 9:00 am (PDT)

CultofMac.com Launches Innovative Deal Hub For Killer Software Savings - Published on 09/29/11

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Cult of Mac blog has teamed up with StackSocial, an online software marketplace, to launch a vibrant Deals hub. Starting today, Cult of Mac visitors will be able to purchase premium Mac apps, such as the smash-hit mail app Sparrow, directly on the CultofMac.com at a savings of 30 - 90% off retail. The new Cult of Mac shopping experience sets itself apart by including social shopping features not available on Apple's Mac App Store. The hub will allow readers to crowdsource potential future deals.

San Francisco, California - Bringing Apple fans the best deals in cutting-edge software, Cult of Mac has teamed up with StackSocial, an online marketplace offering flash sales on Mac software, to launch a vibrant Mac App Deals Hub on the popular Apple-oriented website.

Starting today, Cult of Mac visitors will be able to purchase premium Mac apps, such as the smash-hit mail app Sparrow, directly on the CultofMac.com at a savings of 30 - 90% off retail. The integrated experience will be powered by StackSocial's newly launched platform aimed at helping readers discover and save on the top Mac applications available.

The new Cult of Mac shopping experience sets itself apart by including social shopping features not available on Apple's Mac App Store. The hub will allow readers to crowdsource potential future deals. It will also allow users to earn credits for sharing deals with their friends. The site will be comprised of flash sales on individual apps as well as targeted "mini-bundles" aimed at delivering a precise solution as opposed to the many general bundles offered on the market today.

"Our deals will be informed not by whatever discounts are being cynically handed out by marketers, but by our readers and by partnerships with the best app developers - the kind of apps that members of the Cult of Mac want," said Leander Kahney, editor and publisher of Cult of Mac.com.

"This is a win-win for everyone involved," said Josh Payne, Cofounder of StackSocial. "Our software development partners have an opportunity to get their apps in front of a highly-targeted audience of nearly 2 million monthly Mac users while Cult of Mac readers get access to exclusive sales on premium Mac software. Additionally, we get the ability to leverage Cult of Mac's relationship with its readers and to use that continuous feedback to ensure that our offers are on the cutting-edge of what Mac users want right now."

The idea to expand the StackSocial platform with Mac blogs happened over conversations at Apple's most recent WWDC event. "We had a number of Apple bloggers and publishers telling us they were struggling to find ways to maximize revenues yet keep their site's user experience high. We believe we've solved that challenge by building a unique, social shopping experience that is purely focused on the needs of Mac enthusiasts which enables sites, such as Cult of Mac, the ability to offer a very select group of products and services that their audience is already interested in and appreciates."

About StackSocial:
StackSocial is an online marketplace at StackSocial.com and white-label platform offering flash sales on Mac software. StackSocial partners with top Mac software developers to bring its community unique, curated deals on Mac software and apps. The company was founded by a designer and developer team who saw the need to help improve the way Apple fans discover the best Mac Apps.

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

IGG Software today announced the release of iBank 4.3, a significant update to its top-selling personal finance application. The new version delivers enhanced Lion compatibility and multiple fixes, as well as changes to accommodate sync with IGG's forthcoming portfolio-tracking app, iBank Investor. The update is free to current users of iBank 4. "iBank 4 is already the most full-featured finance manager available for Mac users," says IGG president Ian Gillespie.

Putney, Vermont - IGG Software today announced the release of iBank 4.3, a significant update to its top-selling personal finance application. The new version delivers enhanced Lion compatibility and multiple fixes, as well as changes to accommodate sync with IGG's forthcoming portfolio-tracking app, iBank Investor. The update is free to current users of iBank 4.

"iBank 4 is already the most full-featured finance manager available for Mac users," says IGG president Ian Gillespie. "As we continue to fine-tune it, we can also build outward to address the things we know customers want most - like enhanced mobility."

iBank 4.3 adds a new section to its iTunes-style Source List, from which users can configure sync settings for the popular iBank Mobile app, as well as iBank Investor, a new iOS app from IGG. Users running OS X Lion will also enjoy the addition of full-screen mode on their Macs. Version 4.3 also adds minor fixes throughout the program, as well as relevant changes to its help files and downloadable PDF manual. Some of the issues addressed create subtle improvements to imports, sorting, reporting, calculations, splits, searches and more.

The free iBank Investor app, previously announced on the IGG Developers' Blog, will allow users to monitor all of their investments in one universal app for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. iBank Investor works standalone to let users add positions and track gains and losses, or to sync with investments on a desktop copy of iBank 4 for Mac. The app has been submitted to Apple's App Store.

Among many new features included in last year's release of iBank 4 were faster transaction entry and dynamic editing options in an intuitive, innovative two-line register; an all-new reporting engine; envelope budgeting; a seamless set-up assistant for transferring data from Mac and PC versions of Quicken, MS Money, or other finance programs; and significant speed enhancements throughout. These improvements built upon longstanding iBank features such as direct downloads from online accounts, custom check printing, robust data export and iPhone sync.

Device Requirements:
* Mac OS X 10.5 or later
* 15.9 MB

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Artgig Studio is offering their popular kids educational app, Shake-a-Phrase, for 50% off starting today, Friday 9/30, through Sunday 10/2, as part of the Apps For Children With Special Needs iPads in Fifty States initiative. Shake-a-Phrase combines physical device shaking with hilarious randomly generated sentences in a game for kids ages eight and up.

Pleasantville, New York - Artgig Studio, a boutique interactive agency in Westchester, NY, is offering their popular kids educational app, Shake-a-Phrase, for 50% off starting today, Friday 9/30, through Sunday 10/2, as part of the Apps For Children With Special Needs (A4CWSN) iPads in Fifty States initiative. Shake-a-Phrase will be only 0.99 (usually $1.99) and Artgig will donate half the sales proceeds to A4CWSN for this worthy cause.

A featured iTunes "Storytelling" Education App, Shake-a-Phrase combines physical device shaking with hilarious randomly generated sentences in a game for kids ages eight and up. But fun is only part of the appeal. The app actively engages kids in reading and building vocabulary during the course of play, while the Quiz Me game strengthens their understanding of parts of speech. A Story Starter mode gets the creative juices flowing, setting up silly scenarios and encouraging kids to imagine what happens next.

The vocabulary list of more than 2,000 words was compiled by teachers and parents, and includes a broad range of age-appropriate, interesting and entertaining words. Shake-a-Phrase offers five distinct content flavors to customize learning: Starter, Animals, Monster, Fairytale and a new Sports theme that includes its own dictionary.

Artgig President, Matthew Kicinski, says, "We're honored to be invited to participate in the App Party this weekend. The A4CWSN goal to give 50 iPads to 50 children with special needs in 50 states is really easy to get behind and we're happy to help."

24.: New Teen Adventure Heroine Lucy Dakota Empowers Young Women

Posted by: "prMac Mailer" prservices@prmac.com

Fri Sep 30, 2011 3:02 am (PDT)

New Teen Adventure Heroine Lucy Dakota Empowers Young Women - Published on 09/30/11

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Confident new teenage heroine takes tween readers on her journey of self-discovery and thrilling adventure set in the Colorado backcountry. Lucy Dakota is one cool girl. She climbs mountains, braves roiling whitewater and leads others with confidence. Lucy is the heroine of an exciting new adventure series for young adults that encourages readers to discover their strengths and take on the world. Rocky Mountain Beginnings is the first in the Lucy Dakota: Adventures of a Modern Explorer series.

Lakewood, Colorado - Lucy Dakota is one cool girl. She climbs mountains, braves roiling whitewater and leads others with confidence. Best of all, she isn't afraid to be herself. But it wasn't always this way.

Lucy is a typical teenage girl: intelligent and full of vitality, yet confused and unhappy with her lot in life. Rocky relationships with friends and boyfriends make it hard to fit in at school until she joins an adventure group and discovers the thrill of exploring Colorado's Rocky Mountains. In the backcountry of her home state, she meets her more daring side and transforms from a timid, chubby tween who hides from school bullies to a brave, spirited, globe-trotting leader in the wilderness and beyond.

Meet Lucy Dakota in Lucy Dakota: Adventures of a Modern Explorer - Rocky Mountain Beginnings by Denver author C. S. Shride. Lucy is the heroine of an exciting new adventure series for young adults that encourages readers to discover their strengths and take on the world, whether at school, home or, like Lucy, skipping across the continents.

Lucy is relatable because she is real. "I lived these adventures," Ms. Shride says. "I was scared. I made some bad decisions, although Lucy makes better choices than I did! I found my way because I found myself." Author Shride spent nearly 30 years as a high-altitude mountaineering guide, outdoor educator and owner of an adventure travel business. She saw how young women blossom while challenging themselves on outdoor adventures. "I want to bring the power of self-discovery and self-reflection to girls in a fun way. Joining Lucy on her adventures opens a new world of possibilities for girls. They realize that if Lucy can do it, they can too."

Rocky Mountain Beginnings is the first in the Lucy Dakota: Adventures of a Modern Explorer series. In future books, she climbs the world's highest mountains - and loses a friend - in Nepal, lives with headhunters and faces jaguars in South America, dives with sharks in the Galapagos Islands and survives a tropical storm in Australia's Great Barrier Reef.

What people are saying:
"Just wanted to let you know that Sloane LOVES the book. It arrived yesterday and I finally had to tell her to put it down last night and go to sleep!" - AnDrew French New Boston, NH

"I love "Lucy"! Shride makes Lucy very real. Lucy is no goodie-two-shoes as most pre-teens are represented in youth books. She experiences the real-life challenges of growing up - insecurities that tempt her to try things to belong to the gang. However, she realizes that these are not the things that make her happy. What does make her happy is belonging to a group of young adventurers that challenges her inner strengths, and proving to herself she is a strong, worthwhile girl growing into womanhood. I highly recommend this book to all young readers, and look forward to reading the whole series as it is released." Virginia Crouse Lancaster, PA

"I encourage all teen readers to read this book! It has so much wonderful and informative information about Colorado and surrounding areas. Lucy, the main character, is full of life and trials that every teenager anywhere could relate to. She is empowered and willing to take on life's challenges and becomes a true role model to young readers everywhere! Through her eyes we get a chance to explore new adventures and learn how she navigates through them. I really liked the references to areas in the Colorado region that I had been to and explored as well. Hats off to Lucy Dakota and I can't wait for the new journey!" TJ Lakewood, CO

"I am thoroughly enjoying the book and with every chapter I've read about something that I can relate to in my own life." Deb Strom Denver, CO

"Lucy's challenges make us want to test what we're made of, too." BlueInk Reviews

About Author C.S. Shride:
C.S. Shride is an author, speaker, educator, explorer and guide who grew up at the foot of the Rocky Mountains. For nearly 30 years as an adventure guide, climber and business owner, Shride pursued her lifelong passions: outdoor education and high-altitude mountaineering. She holds a master's degree in education and found tremendous joy teaching both outdoors and in the classroom. Now a full-time writer, she authors books and essays for women and teens.

Shride, author of the Lucy Dakota: Adventures of a Modern Explorer young adult book series, the Straight Talk for Teens book series (available in 2013), the Lucy Dakota Reflections Journal (available Summer 2012) and the Lucy Dakota Travel Journal (available now). The vision for My Piece of the Puzzle is that Lucy Dakota be in the minds and hearts of girls and women around the world, like Harry Potter was, and that she inspire them to know themselves and live their own lives. The difference between Harry and Lucy however, is that Lucy is a real role model; a young woman who has only her own strengths and gifts, not magic, to help her explore the world and live her dreams. And boy does she live them. Copyright (C) 2011 My Piece of the Puzzle. All Rights Reserved.

For users of all ages, the app includes photos of more than 200 everyday objects that can be used to create faces.

Manhattan, New York - iMagine machine(TM) today is pleased to introduce Faces iMake HD for iPad, an advancement on the iPhone version of the app that achieved 800,000+ downloads and received the 2010 Parents' Choice Gold Award, and whose reviewer stated, "Faces iMake is the most entertaining and creatively expressive app for the iPhone I've seen." The app, recognized as an effective tool for stimulating right-brain thinking and out-of-the-box creativity, allows users to assemble creative collages using pictures of everyday objects. For users of all ages and all levels of experience, the app includes photos of more than 200 everyday objects that can be used to create faces.

Faces iMake HD was developed in cooperation with leading artist and educator Hanoch Piven. Piven, whose art has been featured in publications such as Time, The New York Times, and The New Yorker, says about Faces iMake, "I wanted Faces iMake to be a virtual workshop that reflects what happens in the real world when we compose pictures using objects. The process of assembling a collage is one of discovery and play, and Faces iMake is a game as much as it is a workshop of creativity."

Indeed, integral to the app are six short, built-in instructional videos, where Hanoch Piven talks to kids about art and creativity. He does not appear on camera, but we hear the master artist as he moves actual objects on a colored background to create collages. Last but not least, Faces iMake HD has been recognized as an intuitive tool for children with disabilities. Shannon Des Roches Rosa, editor of The Thinking Person's Guide to Autism, wrote, "Our kids love Faces iMake ... Its interface is one of the best I've seen for kids with autism."

Feature Highlights:
* Gallery of 20 inspirational images created by the Piven family, which can be modified
* Make your own Puzzle with Tap2Print(TM)
* Music player that allows music to be played while creating
* Sharing engine (Facebook, email)
* Duplicate object button
* Flip object button
* Send object back one layer button
* Lock object button
* Hide menus and buttons option
* Audio feedback for all buttons

"It has been very rewarding to hear how much they enjoy Faces iMake from users all over the world," commented Hanoch Piven. "Daniel Pink, author of A Whole New Mind, put it very well when he said, 'It's fun and addicting if you can get it away from your kids.'"
