Arctic Watch iOS Released - Second largest ice melt in recorded history - Published on 12/20/11

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

This year the arctic sea ice melted to it's second lowest extent in recorded human history. Unprecedented amounts of new data shows that this trend is accelerating. Arctic Watch 1.98 for iOS is an interactive map of satellite photos that highlight the seasonal ice melt of the north and south pole. It utilizes the NASA Aqua satellite system to retrieve daily updates, and incorporate them into charts and animations that allow you to see trends extending back as far as 30 years.

Sausalito, California - Press Start Studios today is pleased to announce the release and immediate availability of Arctic Watch 1.98 for iPhone and iPad. Arctic Watch aims to raise awareness about the Arctic, with access to daily measurements taken from NASA's earth orbiting satellite systems.

The Arctic ice cap freezes each winter as the sun sets for months at a time below the horizon. It swiftly melts each summer as the sun rises higher in the warming northern sky. Each year the sea ice reaches its annual minimum melt extent in September, but hit a record low in 2007. This year the Arctic Sea ice melted to its second lowest extent in recorded human history. Unprecedented amounts of new data shows that this trend is accelerating.

NSIDC Director Mark Serreze said, "It looks like the spring ice cover is so thin now that large areas melt out in summer, even without persistent extreme weather patterns."

Arctic Watch for iOS is an interactive map of satellite photos that highlight the seasonal ice melt of the north and south pole. It utilizes the NASA Aqua satellite system to retrieve daily updates, and incorporate them into charts and animations that allow you to see trends extending back as far as 30 years.

iCaller is the best phone in your iPhone

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

iCaller is the best phone in your iPhone - Published on 12/20/11

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

InLogic announces iCaller 1.1.2, an update to their popular calling application for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. iCaller is an advanced search engine that allows users to easily find the necessary person from their contact list and dial his or her number right away. iCaller is fully integrated into the phone book where you can add or change the contacts' info, as well as create the list of Favorites for quick dialing, adding a photo of your close friends or colleagues to the contact's name.

Kazan, Russian Federation - InLogic has announced the release of iCaller 1.1.2, an update to their popular calling application for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. Today more than 10,000 users enjoy it worldwide. If you spend a lot of time driving or making a dozen of calls a day, iCaller from InLogic is a new utility you really need. Besides, the application will suit everyone, who appreciates comfort, functionality and ease of use of a phone and misses all these things in his or her favorite iPhone.

The utility is an advanced search engine that allows users to easily find the necessary person from their contact list and dial his or her number right away. This program is especially useful for people driving a car and waiting for the passengers to cross the street. Moreover, while searching for contacts, you can use T9, one of the most beloved systems of mobile phone users worldwide.

With T9 you type a word with the buttons featuring 4-5 letters. Now you have just to enter two or three digits or letters and iCaller will show you the list of contact coincidences, so you need to choose and dial the contact you are looking for. Well, the new utility iCaller is fully integrated into the phone book where you can add or change the contacts' info, as well as create the list of Favorites for quick dialing, adding a photo of your close friends or colleagues to the contact's name.

With the last update you'll get a new option for sending SMS from the list of outgoing and incoming calls, as well as from the quick dialing - Favorites, search by organizations, email and even more. Finally we've developed search from the call log you've been looking for. All of us often face a problem of saving contacts with similar or even identical names. For example, in my contact list there are 15 people called John who have different surnames or occupations. Now iCaller offers search by two words. For further contact filtering you should press "1".

The developers of the application tried to take into account the wishes of most users. And we should do justice to them as iCaller is almost ideal. There is only one thing we should do - get assistance from Apple in order not to be thrown away to the boring "calling options" from iPhone and incoming calls we are used to. You shouldn't accept the inconveniences of the base application, but use a new level of the iCaller features from InLogic.

Supported Languages:
* US English, Russian, Finnish, French and German

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad
* Requires iOS 4.0 or later
* 2.2 MB

Pricing and Availability:

Sunday is the Most Successful Day to Release Apps

Sunday is the Most Successful Day to Release Apps - Published on 12/20/11

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Mobilewalla, the search, discovery and analytics engine for apps, has conducted new research and found that Sunday is the best day to release apps even though Wednesday is the most popular yet worst day. Mobilewalla analyzed apps released in the Apple Store and the Android Market in a 17-week period between May 16th and September 8, 2011; total number of apps released during this period: Apple 91,754 and Android 122,220. The apps were sorted by the day of the week they were released.

Chappaqua, New York - New research on app success reveals that Wednesday is the most popular yet worst day for developers to release apps into the marketplace, and quiet Sunday has the greatest chance of apps reaching ranking success in the top 240. Mobilewalla, the search, discovery and independent analytics engine that ranks all apps, conducted the research.

Mobilewalla analyzed apps released in the Apple Store and the Android Market in a 17-week period between May 16th and September 8, 2011; total number of apps released during this period: Apple 91,754 and Android 122,220. The apps were sorted by the day of the week they were released (noting that developers control release dates in the Android Market; for Apple the release dates are effected by the iTunes review cycle).

The most salient findings are:

* Apps released on Sunday have statistically performed the best. A total of 42% of apps released on Sunday in the Apple Store reach the top 240 while 11% of apps launched in the Android Market achieve the same status.

* Thursdays are the worst days to release apps for success on Android (only 7% of apps achieve top 240 status) while Friday is the worst day for Apple (when 10% reach the top 240).

* An app on the Apple platform is 4 times more likely to be discovered compared to an app on the Android Market.

Anindya Datta, Ph.D., founder and chairman of Mobilewalla published a corresponding brief on this subject called "The Best Day to Release your App to Facilitate Discovery and Success," exclusively for members of Mobilewalla's Developer Forum. Datta explains, "We looked at the correlations between apps released on specific days of the week and their achieved level of success (measured as the highest ranking obtained in their native app stores). "The reasons for the differential lie in the ease of discoverability of apps in the two platforms. In fact, an app in the Apple platform is 400% more likely to be discovered compared to an app on the Android Market."

"Apple users discover apps more conveniently than Android users. And while it is impossible to identify exact causes for this pattern, users may find it easier to browse items in the relatively low number of apps launched over the weekend."

NightCap - A major step forward for iPhone night-time photography

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

Tue Dec 20, 2011 3:30 am (PST)



NightCap - A major step forward for iPhone night-time photography - Published on 12/20/11

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

We all know that cameras struggle in low light. As the sun sets your photos become dark and grainy - especially with the tiny camera in the iPhone! The solution is to give the camera time to catch more light - longer exposures in photography terms. Until now that hasn't been possible on iOS, but new app NightCap brings genuine long exposure to the iPhone and iPod touch with iOS 5 for the first time: up to 20x longer than the built-in camera app. The improvement to photos can be breathtaking!

Cheshire, United Kingdom - iOS photography and video specialists Interealtime are today delighted to announce the launch of NightCap, a photography app for the iPhone that promises to transform night-time and low-light photography on iOS.

The iPhone camera is limited to a fairly short exposure time - roughly a twentieth of a second. NightCap extends that up to a full second - 20 times longer, which means the camera can catch 20x more light. The difference that makes in dark conditions is quite amazing: in some cases NightCap can produce a good photo where the built-in camera app barely sees anything at all.

Even where the built-in camera app produces a bright photo, sometimes the photo can be very grainy. This is because the exposure time is very short, and to compensate the camera increases it's sensitivity by using a high ISO level. The problem with high ISO levels is that noise increases with sensitivity, so you get a bright but grainy image. NightCap improves here as well: because the camera can use longer exposure it doesn't need to use high ISO resulting in a much clearer, less grainy photo.

There's also an artistic advantage to using NightCap: when you're photographing a moving scene longer exposure times mean moving objects start to blur. A good photographer uses this effect to create a sense of speed, following a moving object with the camera to keep the object focused while the background zooms past, or capturing a stationary subject as a crowd flows past.

Capturing quality images with NightCap is very straightforward as it features a simple automatic mode. The camera adjusts exposure and focus automatically, and will use the flash if needed. In low light it automatically uses longer exposures. Tapping the Photo button takes a photo and saves it to the iPhone's camera roll, and there's a review button to quickly view the last photo.

Advanced photography features are present too - there's a Manual mode that allows exposure to be set (1/20s to 1s exposures are supported), flash can be turned on and off, and the app supports tap-to-focus.

NightCap is designed to improve low light photos without compromising elsewhere: it takes full resolution photos and preserves full photo metadata including GPS tagging. Photos are saved directly to the iPhone's camera roll for convenience.

Device Requirements:
* Compatible with iPhone 3GS, 4 and 4S, and iPod touch 4G (iPod touch with camera)
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later
* 300KB download

Pricing and Availability:
NightCap 1.0 is just $0.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Photo & Video category. If you are interested in covering or reviewing Camera Boost in your publication, please contact us for a free download code.

Intellipad 2.0 Released With Major Customer-Driven Updates

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

Tue Dec 20, 2011 4:00 am (PST)



Intellipad 2.0 Released With Major Customer-Driven Updates - Published on 12/20/11

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Intellipad, the app described as, "the write tool for the iPad", by assistive technology specialist, Jane Farrell, announced the release of Intellipad 2.0. Several major updates greatly enhance its function within mainstream and special needs settings. These include text-to-speech and word prediction in three new languages, including French, Spanish and German, the ability to link keyboards to one another, add images to the keyboard, merge cells vertically, add multiple pages, and many more.

Rockville, Maryland - Intellipad's creators listened to their users and have translated consumer feedback into updates that will significantly enhance its functionality.

These updates include: English, Spanish, French and German Text-to-Speech Acapella voices, word prediction and spell check. Text can be spoken as you type and the whole sentence can be spoken after each sentence is completed. Intellipad 2.0 offers bigger speaker and clear buttons for easier access. Additional pages can be added to the notepad to easily create and edit books, picture stories or sequential lessons. The keys on the keyboard can be merged horizontally and vertically and any images saved on the iOS device can be added to the keys, allowing for unlimited configurations. Keyboards in the same folder can be linked to one another with the next keyboard appearing when a finger is swiped from right to left on the pad.

At a fraction of the cost of other existing systems, Intellipad makes advanced assistive technology solutions and Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) more widely available. The fully customizable keyboard and notepad enhances accessibility to all individuals with a focus on helping people with learning difficulties to achieve increased independence in communication and written expression. As an Augmentative Communication tool, it provides a voice to those who are unable to speak. For students who struggle with writing, it offers auditory, visual and text-based supports.

The benefits of text-to-speech software, along with word prediction make typing on the iPad faster, easier, and more accurate. The text-to-speech technology provides immediate auditory feedback as each word or sentence is typed. Hearing the words read back, exactly as written, helps the student identify and correct their errors. These features strengthen grammar, punctuation, spelling, and vocabulary skills, which in turn help students, become more self-directed and independent writers.

Unlimited customization increases the flexibility of Intellipad as a learning tool, making it applicable to both mainstream and special needs settings. Educators are able to create and edit customizable activities and keyboards that fit their students' specific needs and educational goals. The applications for use are extensive: customized content, word banks, social stories, journal entries, sentence building, communication boards and personalized books which incorporate pictures of the persons own life experiences, to mention just a few.

The options are nearly endless when you consider that each key can be assigned a letter, word, sentence or picture. You can select colors for the text, background and grid of the keyboard and apply unique colors to select keys in order to highlight specifics such as vowels, consonants, or whatever the need. The user can also merge cells to form larger keys and delete unnecessary ones, change the font size, create audio recording, select a standard keyboard layout or configure a completely distinct and original layout.

Intellipad enables text from emails, stories, or articles to be pasted into the notepad and read aloud. It includes integrated email connectivity, print, and copy to clipboard functions. A dual format option offers notepad or photo image. The integrated file management system keeps everything organized and accessible.

There are a lot of Charity App's already out there, but nothing like this App has been done by any other Air Ambulance Charity in the UK, so we're sure we're the first!"

"We have designed the App to appeal to all ages, both our younger, newer supporters right through to people who are long-standing followers of our Charity."

"Social media has become really a really important communication tool for the YAA in recent years - we are seeing increasing numbers of followers on both Facebook and Twitter, and for us, the next step in developing our social media strategy was to launch an iPhone App."

The App was designed and developed by Leeds based EngineRoom Apps who specialise in designing & developing Apps and mobile strategies. Tobin Harris, MD of EngineRoom Apps added: "Working with the Yorkshire Air Ambulance was a great experience. They had clear goals and forward thinking vision. We helped them develop an iPhone App concept that would attract and engage new audiences, raise awareness about the Charity, and also help them achieve their financial goals through increased donations. Mobile presents an increasingly effective channel for Charities to engage with users directly in a variety of contexts. We worked closely with Yorkshire Air Ambulance bring their ideas and goals to life, guiding them through our process of user storyboarding, design, it was a great example of mobile innovation to reach new audiences and raise awareness."

Color Splurge 1.4 Free for iOS: Selectively Remove/Alter Color in Photos - Published on 12/20/11

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Indie developer Vijay Doddavala today announces Color Splurge 1.4 free for iOS, his Photography app that allows users to create dramatically enhanced photos by selectively removing or altering the color of people and objects in the photo. The #5 Photo app in the U.S. App Store, Color Splurge makes it easy to turn a color photo completely black & white, and then selectively replace the original colors or paint in new ones. It works with most photos from the camera, Facebook, or photo library.

Bangalore, India - Indie developer Vijay Doddavala today is pleased to announce Color Splurge 1.4 free for iOS, his Photography app that allows users to create dramatically enhanced photos by selectively removing or altering the color of people and objects in the photo. In the Top 5 Photo apps in the U.S. App Store for all of December, Color Splurge makes it easy to turn a color photo completely black & white, and then selectively replace the original colors or paint in new ones. The app works with most photos from the camera, Facebook, or the iOS Photo Library. Color Splurge features: unlimited undos, revert to original, zoom in & out, move photo left/right & up/down, compatibility with most photo resolutions, powerful save & export & import, continuously variable color selection for 16 million possible shades, and post card delivery with built-in Sincerely Ship capability, which creates and ships a 4 x 6 personalized postcard anywhere in the world.

In the age of iOS photography, where billions of snapshots are in circulation around the globe, it is not easy to make a portrait photo stand out. A technique long used by professionals, selective desaturation, produces dramatic results by accenting a black & white photo with splashes of color. Until recently, a photographer needed a costly Photoshop-like piece of software to expertly execute this graphic sleight of hand. Now, Color Splurge produces professional results effortlessly in a free app for iOS. Formerly named Color Splurge - Color/Recolor/Gray/Splash Color/Colorize, the app includes all these functions, plus much more.

To start, users can use photos from any of the following sources: Facebook Profile photo, Facebook Album photos, iOS Photo Library or Album, built-in camera, or Clipboard. Once opened in the app, the user can completely desaturate (remove the color from) the photo with one button. Next, the creative photographer uses the normal two-finger gesture to zoom in to the photo, making it easier to add color to a small area. Two-finger manipulation of the photo is easy, even on an iPhone-sized screen. Finally, the user can choose from two kinds of color accents: natural or artificial. Natural accents reveal the actual, original color "beneath" the B&W photo. Artificial accents allow the user to paint a translucent color over any part of the B&W photo, turning an orange blue if desired. Because it is a semi-transparent layer of color, the details of the object, including highlights and shadow, show through, which adds realism. Photo retouchers can dial in any one of more than 16 million
colors, and can paint using a fingertip or variable sized paintbrush. Another choice is to colorize the entire photo, for example, add a sepia tint uniformly to the entire picture.

Feature Highlights:
* Selective desaturation - remove color from selected areas
* Colorize - pick the color you like and paint your photos
* Get the images from your Facebook Album, Facebook Profile Photo, Photo Album, and Camera
* Upload your work to Twitpic, Facebook Albums, Phone Album, Email and Clipboard
* Supports Undo with unlimited (until memory is full in your device) number of levels
* Save as many projects as you want
* Multiple resolutions to choose while Uploading your images
* Copy the image to the clipboard and use it wherever you like
* Zoom In, Zoom Out and Pan using your two fingers
* Use the Brush size that works for you
* See the Brush tip while working on the image, so that it will be easy for you while working on the image
* And it is free

With their new photo finished, Color Splurge artists can save the photograph to the iOS Photo Library or the Clipboard. Integrated export and upload options include: email, Facebook Albums, Twitpic, and the newly incorporated post card feature. The app includes a built-in, optional service called Sincerely Ship. This third-party photo specialist offers Color Splurge users the opportunity to have their custom photo printed as a 4 x 6 post card with a personalized message, and then mailed anywhere in the world. Customers are billed directly through Sincerely, Inc., known for their Postagram service.

"It has been very gratifying to see Color Splurge become a Top 10 Photography app in more than 30 App Stores worldwide," commented Vijay Doddavala. "My plan is to continually improve it and keep it free, so that more and more people can enjoy it."

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
* Requires iOS 3.2 or later (iOS 5 tested)
* 6.5 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Color Splurge 1.4 is now free (ad-supported) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Photo & Video category.
