TimeStation 1.0 for iOS - Free, QR Code, Time Card System for Employers - Published on 11/03/11

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

App Impulse today introduces TimeStation 1.0 for iOS devices with front-facing cameras, their new Business app that allows employers to track, manage, and export employee attendance data from multiple locations. Featuring cloud based technology, TimeStation can function offline and sync when an Internet connection becomes available. The app offers a complete, contactless Time & Attendance System that can be setup in minutes.

New York, New York - App Impulse today is pleased to introduce TimeStation 1.0 for iOS devices with front-facing cameras, their new Business app that allows employers to track, manage, and export employee attendance data from multiple locations. Featuring cloud based technology, TimeStation can function offline and sync when an Internet connection becomes available. The app offers a complete, contactless Time & Attendance System that can be setup in minutes. Employees can Punch In & Out in under a second using their Employee card, or they can use their PIN number if their card is unavailable. TimeSation features an easy setup process, multiple online reports for management, tracking of In or Out status, manual adjustment of data, and SSL encryption.

The ideal system for keeping track of the hours worked by each employee, TimeStation simplifies the payroll process and provides management with printable, company wide and employee specific reports. Following free registration, users receive templates from which they print out Time Cards for each employee. Each card includes the employee's name and a unique QR code (Quick Response code), the matrix bar code frequently seen in magazines and newspapers.

Any iOS device with a front-facing camera can be used as a scanner input, and may be conveniently set up on a stand on top of a desk or countertop. Employees simply swipe their card on coming and going each day, and see an onscreen verification of their Punch In and Punch Out times. Employees may optionally be given a private PIN, which can be used in place of their time card, if necessary. In addition to calculating hourly wages, the System can also be used to determine who is currently in the office and who is currently out.

Feature Highlights:
* Turn an iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch into a contactless Time & Attendance System
* Employees can Punch In & Out in less than a second using Fast-Scan technology
* Get up and running in minutes, by printing employee cards onsite
* Cloud-based solution means there is no software or hardware to install and maintain
* Off-Line Mode allows employees to Punch In & Out even when there is no Internet connectivity
* Managers have access to a full range of online reports to track attendance and calculate pay
* Employees can punch by PIN when their card is not available
* Supports Multiple Locations and Departments
* Export data to Excel and other programs
* Support for Manual Time Adjustments

Designed for small to medium sized businesses, TimeStation will operate offline or online. For example, employees can Punch In or Out at a job site while the iOS device is offline. Upon returning to the office, the iOS device syncs all the data collected with the online database in the cloud. Similarly, employees at multiple locations can record their attendance on two different iOS devices, and all information will be compiled online.

"Our easy signup process combined with the ability to print your own employee cards, means that you can be up and running in as little as 5 minutes!" stated Younes Oughla of App Impulse. "TimeStation is the perfect, free solution for small and medium businesses looking to track time and attendance without the usual costs and overhead of traditional systems."

Device Requirements:
* Compatible with iPhone 4/4S, iPod touch (4th generation), and iPad 2
* Requires iOS 4.0 or later (iOS 5 tested)
* 1.6 MB

Pricing and Availability:
TimeStation 1.0 is free and available in the U.S. and Canada exclusively through the App Store in the Business category.

MoboMath Brings Handwritten Math Input to Mac OS X - Published on 11/03/11

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Massachusetts based Enventra, Inc. today announces MoboMath 2.0, its handwritten equation editor is now available for the first time to Mac users. Designed and developed expressly for the Mac environment, users create math expressions for their favorite applications in their own handwriting using a graphics tablet, trackpad, or mouse. MoboMath then translates their handwritten input into formatted equations that can be copied to a user's target application for calculation, graphing, and more.

Lexington, Massachusetts - Enventra, Inc. today is pleased to announce that its MoboMath(TM) handwritten equation editor is now available for the first time to Mac users. The new MoboMath 2.0 Mac OS X Edition has been designed and developed expressly for the Mac environment.

With MoboMath, users create math expressions for their favorite applications in their own handwriting using a graphics tablet, trackpad, or mouse. MoboMath then translates their handwritten input into formatted equations that can be copied to a user's target application for calculation, graphing, or technical documentation. By entering math expressions in their own handwriting, users bypass the keyboard and palette input that would otherwise be required by their applications.

The Mac OS X version of MoboMath directly supports Microsoft Word, Mathematica, Maple, MathMagic, MathType, and products like iWork that use MathType as an equation editor. With MoboMath's MathML, TeX, and image support, users can also create expressions for a broad range of other standards-based applications.

"The new Mac version has given us the opportunity to rethink, redesign, and refine MoboMath to improve the overall user experience," explained Terry Rochford, President of Enventra. "The Mac edition of MoboMath offers a streamlined user interface and a variety of new or simplified features that were not available in earlier Windows versions."

"In the past, MoboMath has been a popular add-on to MathMagic for Windows," said Charles Lee, CTO of InfoLogic, Inc. "We are pleased that handwritten math input will now be an available option for our large MathMagic for Mac user base as well."

"I have created expressions for both Maple 15 and Mathematica 8 using early versions of MoboMath for Mac OS X," noted Saeed Rashid, an independent research professional. "I plan to use the new version regularly in my projects. MoboMath is very easy to use."

System Requirements:
* Mac OS X 10.6.6 or later
* 64-bit processor
* 14.1 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Special introductory pricing is in effect through November 29, 2011. For a limited time, MoboMath 2.0 is $14.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the Mac App Store in the Productivity category. More information about the Mac edition of MoboMath is available on the Enventra web site.

Priority Matrix's Latest Update Helps Visual Thinkers Plan and Organize - Published on 11/03/11

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Appfluence today announces new versions of Priority Matrix for iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Priority Matrix helps users focus time and effort on the tasks with the highest ROI. It intelligently identifies the user's favorite icons to allow sorting and organizing in a way that makes sense. All three versions introduce an "oops" recovery feature to help users recover deleted data, as well as a flawless list import and export. The new release expands on icon visualization, a unique and beloved feature.

Palo Alto, California - Appfluence today is pleased to announce the release of new versions of Priority Matrix (version 1.3.2 for Mac, version 2.3.2 for the iPhone and iPad). The new release expands on icon visualization, a unique and beloved feature of Priority Matrix. It enables visual thinkers to tag tasks with icons ranging from family to business. Priority Matrix intelligently identifies the user's favorite icons to allow sorting and organizing in a way that makes sense.

Priority Matrix for Mac enhances accessibility via new features like customizable font sizes. Meanwhile, all three versions introduce an "oops" recovery feature to help users recover deleted data. Backup has never been easier with the free cloud sync, as well as a flawless list import and export feature. Sharing a list of tasks with a colleague is also straightforward: just one click builds a list of bulleted activities along with context, due dates, and a screenshot for reports.

Appfluence created a set of complementary tools that work well together, optimizing the unique properties of each supported platform. Priority Matrix stands apart from other task management solutions due to its emphasis on context and categorization. It is a particularly powerful solution for organizers who need "focus". Users can resize the quadrants to focus only on "Critical and Immediate" tasks. This quickly identifies what tasks needs to be done and the progress made in meeting those goals.

Priority Matrix has received overwhelmingly positive reviews from its 50,000 users. For example, the Mac version averages 4.5 stars on Apple's Mac App Store and enthusiastic comments like "handling of the tool is intuitive and one can ramp up in less than a couple of minutes to use this tool" or "I just tried exporting a list and showing it to my boss to confirm I've prioritized appropriately, and it saved me a lot of time!". Paul Thandi, CEO of NEC Group, says "(Priority Matrix) is a great app. I have tried pretty much all of the scheduling and organising stuff but this really works well for me."

About Priority Matrix:
Priority Matrix is an innovative task manager, which takes the Eisenhower Method of task organization to the next level by introducing a tremendous amount of flexibility. With hassle-free cloud sync, over 50,000 Priority Matrix iOS users seamlessly transfer their data to Macs keeping information in-sync wherever there's an internet connection.
