An app twice a day keeps the dentist away

An app twice a day keeps the dentist away - Published on 04/10/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Dentist Ben Underwood has developed a unique app called Brush DJ to make brushing less boring. The free app plays 2 minutes of a song taken at random from the music library stored on the user's device. This encourages people to brush for and effective length of time whilst rediscovering their music collection. With over half of young people aged between 12 and 15 now owning a smartphone or iPod touch, Brush DJ is an ideal tool to help engage them in the task of maintaining their dental health.

York, United Kingdom - A recent survey by the British Dental Health Foundation reported nearly 59% of women and 35% regularly skip brushing their teeth at bedtime.

The government latest survey found only 21% of people use dental floss and only 26% use an electric toothbrush. Dental floss use has fallen between 1998 and 2009 in England, Wales and Northern Ireland and a study in the US reported that the average time spent brushing is considerably shorter than 2 minutes, with the average being about 45 seconds.

With over half of young people aged between 12 and 15 now owning a smartphone or iPod touch, Brush DJ is an ideal tool to help engage them in the task of maintaining their dental health between dental appointments.

Brush DJ also allows users to set reminders to brush, floss, use a mouthrinse and when they next need to visit their dentist or hygienist. Evidence-based age specific information is given as per the Department of Health's toolkit 'Delivering Better Oral Health'.

Ben says he was inspired to come up with this idea after watching the BBCs Apprentice where candidates were asked to design and an app. He felt this would be an ideal way to help make people aware of the latest advice to keep their mouths healthy and encourage them to brush for the right length of time to be effective, to help reduce the risk of gum disease, decay and bad breath.

Free updates will be available whenever new oral health information is released.

Ben welcomes feedback on how Brush DJ can be improved and can be contacted via the feedback form on www.brushDJ.com.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad
* Requires iOS 4.3 or later
* 4.7 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Brush DJ 1.4 is Free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Health & Fitness category.

Mac Data Recovery Guru: Finder-Like Experience Provided In Data Reco

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

Tue Apr 10, 2012 9:15 am (PDT)



Mac Data Recovery Guru: Finder-Like Experience Provided In Data Recovery - Published on 04/10/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Mac OS X File Recovery today introduces version 1.4 of Mac Data Recovery Guru, the latest data recovery utility that recovers all common filetypes from any kind of device, due to user error, accidental formatting, hardware malfunction, and any other cause of data loss that does not involve overwriting the original file. Version 1.4 adds optimizations and bug fixes to the product, both streamlining the performance and assuring an overall smooth experience for users.

Breckenridge, Colorado - Mac OS X File Recovery today is pleased to announce version 1.4 of Mac Data Recovery Guru for OS X, the latest data recovery utility on the market and the only one to sport an easy-to-use Finder-like user interface. The main idea behind Mac Data Recovery Guru is to take the very same column-based window experience you have in browsing files in the Finder, and apply it to browsing deleted files with Mac Data Recovery Guru. This eliminates the learning curve and any technical difficulty from using the app, as you can start it up, click scan, and then feel like you're in the Finder again only this time you're browsing your deleted files. Mac Data Recovery Guru has been so effective at reproducing the Finder experience for browsing deleted files, that in the early stages one point of confusion for some users was that they thought they were still browsing their regular files in the Finder. The interface has been updated to clarify that this is not the case.

On nearly all device types including hard disks, digital cameras and mobile phones, files remain intact even after deleted until written over by new data that gets written to the device. For this reason there is a very high chance of recovering the data you lost after having deleted the file, or even after having formatted the device. One main point of Mac Data Recovery Guru is that it is very small in size. This is advantageous because many data recovery apps weigh in at tens or hundreds of megabytes, meaning that the mere act of downloading the data recovery app onto the drive in question runs a real risk of overwriting the data you are attempting to recover. Weighing in at a very small size of just a couple of megabytes makes Mac Data Recovery Guru a safe first-step choice in any data recovery scenario.

Overall Mac Data Recovery Guru has two priorities: One is to be very easy to use. A simple interface with two buttons which is completely uncluttered allows for 2-step data recovery and is as easy as using the Finder built into Mac OS X. Two is that internally it does everything possible to provide robust results. Its scan will find deleted files (even on physically failing hard drives) that other apps miss. In addition, it can scan and recover files from an unprecedented number of different kinds of devices, including: Macintosh disks, Windows disks, Linux disks, Unix disks, digital cameras, mobile phones, USB drives, memory cards, CDs/DVDs, and more.

Mac Data Recovery Guru does not force the user to wait until the disk scan is complete before they can recover a file. Users can browse through deleted files that are found during the scanning process, while the app continues to scan. Selected files appear as text or graphic previews, displaying the file's contents even before it is recovered. The larger the number of files on the disk, the longer the scan time. Data Recovery Guru features a thorough, high-speed scan, and allows users to recover their file the moment it appears in the scan window. Should additional files need to be recovered, hitting the "Recover" button does not interrupt the ongoing scan

Version 1.4 Highlights:
* Now uses Apple's latest ARC memory management. This provides optimizations in memory usage and performance in comparison to the memory management schemes that were available in Cocoa previously.
*Bug fixes
*Optimization to speed up file preview
*General Optimization and speed increase

Mac Data Recovery Guru provides the following features:
* Undelete files in Mac OS X
* User-friendly Finder window interface
* File thumbnail previews
* Scan for deleted files and recover files at the same time
* Finds lost files other disk recovery apps miss
* Identifies bad sectors and continues past them
* Recovers files from failing hard drives

iStopMotion for iPad 1.3 Updated - Published on 04/10/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Boinx Software, a multi-award winning software developer for Mac and iOS, is pleased to announce another upgrade to the popular iStopMotion for iPad. The updated iStopMotion for iPad 1.3 now features image capturing via the headset remote play/pause button, better feedback while processing movies with many frames, and language localization in French, Japanese and Chinese. "We continue to give iStopMotion for iPad a lot of love," says Oliver Breidenbach, CEO, Boinx Software.

Boston, Massachusetts - Boinx Software, a multi-award winning software developer for Mac and iOS, is pleased to announce another upgrade to the popular iStopMotion for iPad. The updated iStopMotion for iPad 1.3 now features image capturing via the headset remote play/pause button, better feedback while processing movies with many frames, and language localization in French, Japanese and Chinese. "We continue to give iStopMotion for iPad a lot of love," says Oliver Breidenbach, CEO, Boinx Software. "For example, people will really appreciate being able to capture frames with the headset control because they don't have to touch the iPad screen, which can cause the camera to move unintentionally. If you have many frames in your movie, the app can get quite busy, so a new spinner now shows you when the app is processing your images. Plus, making the app available in three new languages again makes it more accessible to our wide fan base."

iStopMotion for iPad 1.3 Highlights Include:

Image Capturing Via the Headset Play/Pause Button:
Users can now take pictures for stop motion movies on the iPad using the play/pause button on an attached headset. Shooting frames without touching the device prevents unintentionally moving the camera for clearer, crisper images.

New Spinner Indicates When App is Busy:
Movies with many frames sometimes require some background processing. A new spinner that indicates when the app is processing images offers users peace of mind and a better understanding of how iStopMotion for iPad 1.3 is operating.

More Language Localization:
In addition to English and German, iStopMotion for iPad 1.3 is now also available in French, Japanese and Chinese.

Rave Reviews on the App Store for iStopMotion for iPad:

* (5 Stars) AMAZING! - By ASC: "This is the best app I have ever owned! I use my iPhone all the time hooked up wirelessly with this! BUY!!!"

* (5 Stars) Superb Stop Motion app - By Jason Minos: "Outputs extremely high quality. Very impressed. Interface is really easy to use. Highly recommend using it in conjunction with the iStopMotion Remote app which is free! The camera overlay feature is great and the rendering is very fast. Myself and the kids will be using this app on a regular basis."

iStopMotion Remote Camera Companion App Also Gets an Upgrade:
The iStopMotion Remote Camera turns the iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, 4th gen iPod touch, iPad 2 and the new iPad into a remote camera for iStopMotion for iPad, and supports capturing in 1080p HD on the iPhone 4S.

iStopMotion Remote Camera has also been upgraded with language localization in French, Japanese and Chinese, and supports image capturing via the headset play/pause button.
