WikiFlow Bursts The Internet Filter Bubble - Published on 04/11/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
WikiFlow, an app designed to burst the Internet 'filter bubble', has recently been updated. The 'filter bubble' phenomenon is of growing concern to Internet users as personalized search results and recommendation engines increasingly narrow the breadth of information we receive daily. To increase exposure to new ideas, WikiFlow provides a simple way of flowing through the depths of Wikipedia, giving an unbiased and unfiltered stream of topics.
Dublin, Ireland - WikiFlow, an app designed to burst the Internet 'filter bubble', has recently been updated. The 'filter bubble' phenomenon is of growing concern to Internet users as personalized search results and recommendation engines increasingly narrow the breadth of information we receive daily. To increase exposure to new ideas, WikiFlow provides a simple way of flowing through the depths of Wikipedia, giving an unbiased and unfiltered stream of topics.
WikiFlow is an innovative Wikipedia discovery app for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad. To burst the Internet 'filter bubble', WikiFlow selects and displays unfiltered Wikipedia articles in a continuous on-screen information feed. To investigate a topic further, simply touch the article name to display the full Wikipedia article. WikiFlow's trademark minimalist design ensures that visual distraction is eliminated so users can focus on the information stream in front of them.
"I was amazed to learn just how much our knowledge is limited by the sources we read", said developer Darragh Moriarty. "I set out to design an app to overcome that barrier by displaying an unfiltered information feed from the world's greatest encyclopedia, Wikipedia. It was critically important to remove all clutter and complexities from the app, so the information flow is clear, full-screen and easy to interact with. It really comes alive on the Retina display of the new iPad!"
WikiFlow's latest update boasts many new features. A history mode is now included, allowing users to view articles that have disappeared off-screen before getting a chance to interact with them. The app is now fully compatible with the Retina display, ensuring smooth and sharp graphics on the new iPhone and iPad. Many design improvements have been incorporated into this update, including a guided tour for first-time users of WikiFlow.
WikiFlow is an ideal educational aid for students and is the perfect app for information addicts. WikiFlow even caters to language learners thanks to support for browsing Wikipedia in 32 different languages.
Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch or iPad
* Requires iOS 4.0 or later
* Universal App
* 0.6 MB
Pricing and Availability:
WikiFlow 3.0 is available worldwide for $0.99 USD (or equivalent in other currencies) in the Education category of the App Store.

Zippity: the easiest way to manage zip files on your iPhone - Published on 04/11/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Zippity is the easiest way to open zip files on your iPhone. It's ideal anyone who needs to open zip files on the go. Zippity has a simple, instinctive interface and opens a range of archive formats including zip, tar, gzip and bzip2. Using Zippity a user can open zip files, add photos to their camera roll, email individual files and open files in other apps on their iPhone. Zippity has been designed from the ground up to be as intuitive and simple to use as possible.
Bloxham, United Kingdom - Goo Software Ltd has released version 1.0 of Zippity, the easiest way to open zip files on your iPhone.
Zippity is the ideal utility app for anyone who needs to open zip files on the go. Zippity lets iPhone owners open zip files, preview the contents, mail selected contents to others, add photos to their device's camera roll, and send files from Zippity to other apps on their iPhone.
Using Zippity is simple. Once it's installed on an iPhone, the user can browse to a zip file online and tap the "Open in..." button in Safari to open the file in Zippity. Likewise, zip files received via email can be opened in Zippity with a single tap. Files in other iPhone apps (for example, Dropbox) can also be opened in Zippity.
Zippity has been designed from the ground up to be as intuitive and simple to use as possible. It uses standard iOS UI elements and metaphors throughout, meaning that occasional users don't have to re-learn the interface every time they use the app.
Zippity is an invention born of necessity. When Goo Software Ltd founder Simon Whitaker needed to open a zip file on his iPhone he was dismayed to find that none of the existing zip file apps on the App Store offered a simple, intuitive and uncluttered approach to opening zip files. Without hesitation he set about doing what any self-respecting geek would do: writing his own zip file app!
The next version of Zippity is already in the App Store review queue. It adds Dutch and Hungarian localisations of the interface plus some minor bug fixes.
Features:
* Open .zip, .tar, .tar.gz, .tar.bz2, .gz, .bz2 files
* Browse archive contents using a familiar interface
* Select files and send by email
* Add images from archive files to the iPhone's camera roll
* Send files from Zippity to other applications
Device requirements:
* iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPod touch (3rd generation), iPod touch (4th generation) and iPad
* 3.3 MB
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later
Pricing and Availability:
Zippity 1.0 is only $0.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Utilities category.

The props pop up in front of faces right as pics are taken and range from the theatrical to the outright goofy, including fake beards, hats, glasses, and much more. The app includes weekly challenges and a Top Ten "throws" feeds to bring users together, as well as engaged moderation support to ensure things stay clean.

Children's Publisher Releases App Based on Award-Winning Book
Posted by: "prMac Mailer" prservices@prmac.com
Wed Apr 11, 2012 7:46 am (PDT)
Children's Publisher Releases App Based on Award-Winning Book - Published on 04/11/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Combine baby animals, counting 1 to 10, sing-along, and stunning art and what have you got? A best-selling, award-winning, rave-reviews book that kids read again and again. What happens if you add animation and interactivity so kids can make the octopus squirt ink and the dolphins jump, plus a counting game? A terrific app - one that kids consider entertainment while parents and teachers consider education.
Cupertino, California - Over in the Ocean: In a Coral Reef won nine major awards as a book, including Learning Magazine's Teacher's Choice Award and National Parenting Publications' Gold Award. Now that the book has been developed as an app, the sky is the limit!
The ocean in this app is teeming with pufferfish that "puff," gruntfish that "grunt," and seahorses that "flutter" - all at the touch of a little finger. Best of all, the animal babies really do behave that way, making this a delightful introduction to the ocean habitat.
This new app combines the talents of the author, Marianne Berkes, the illustrator, Jeanette Canyon, and the developer, Malachi Bazan of Simply Nature Media and Dawn Publications.
Features include:
* The user chooses between "Read to me," "Read to myself," and "Sing to me."
* The author narrates "read to me" and also sings the "sing to me" option to the tune of the classic kid's song, "Over in the Meadow."
* The stunning artwork is entirely constructed from colorful polymer clay - and illustrator Jeanette Canyon explains how it is done. It will make you want to have fun with your own clay
* Each ocean animal has a signature movement activated by touching the baby animal on the screen. For example, the octopus squirts an ink cloud, and the seahorses flutter - which is exactly what happens in real life
* After being introduced to all the animal babies, from one octopus to ten seahorses, they all "up and swam away" to play. The child is invited to find them "from ten to one," which marks the beginning of a counting game
* All information is scientifically accurate. After the counting game the child learns more about each species, including photographs. The author also explains the great variety of ways that these animals care for their young
Over in the Ocean is the first app in a planned series based on the popular "Over" books by Berkes. Others in the book series include Over in the Jungle, Over in the Arctic, Over in the Forest, and Over in Australia.
The app is entirely appropriate for children. It does not contains ads, social media, in-app purchases, or links. It also does not collect data.
The first customer review, from Mrs. MJ Broker, said: "This App is jam-packed with vibrant colors, engaging interactivity, fluid poetry, predictable text and "teachable moments" with the infusion of content areas such as math (counting skills) & science (sea life)! As a mother and educator, this App is a treasure! (It's even more fun, if you have the book, as the App eloquently brings this book alive!)"

True HDR can now create up to 16 megapixel HDR photos on iPhone and iPad - Published on 04/11/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Pictional today is pleased to announce the release of True HDR 2.4, an update to TrueHDR, the popular high dynamic range, HDR, photography app. TrueHDR's latest release includes capability of handling up to 16 mega-pixel photos, imported from high-end cameras, on iPhone 4S/4, iPad 2, and the new iPad. True HDR is one of a highly select group of apps featured by Apple in the App Store Hall of Fame, App Store Essentials - Camera & Photography, and has been picked as an App Store staff favorite.
Boston, Massachusetts - Pictional LLC today is pleased to announce the release of True HDR 2.4, an update to TrueHDR, the popular high dynamic range (HDR) photography app. TrueHDR's latest release includes capability of handling up to 16 mega-pixel photos (imported from high-end cameras) on iPhone 4S/4, iPad 2, and the new iPad.
True HDR is one of a highly select group of apps featured by Apple in the "App Store Hall of Fame", "App Store Essentials - Camera & Photography", and has been picked as an App Store staff favorite. It has also been featured by MacWorld, TUAW, Mashable, Gizmodo, Wired, and won an honorable mention for the 2009 Best Photography App from "The Best App Ever" contest.
True HDR is designed to address the issue that cameras can only capture a limited range of brightness in a single photo. In other words, when people take photos of a scene that has a large range from bright to dark, they often have to choose between the bright areas and the dark areas. True HDR enables users to take two pictures at different exposures, automatically aligns the pictures, and then takes the best features of each and merges them into one picture that has vivid colors and details in both the shadows and sunny areas.
With True HDR 2.4, users can now process high mega-pixel photos imported from high-end cameras. The app outputs a high resolution and high dynamic range photo that can be easily edited with the built-in sliders and filters.
Feature highlights:
* Handles up to 16 mega-pixel photos on iPhone 4S/4, iPad 2, and the new iPad
* Sliders and filters - easily make adjustments to the merged HDR photos to get the final image just the way you prefer. If you use high mega-pixel original images, the sliders and filters handle the full resolution output without a problem.
* Choice of Natural or Enhanced modes, with Natural for the most realistic look and Enhanced for slightly more vivid colors and contrast - pick the look you like
* Easy, fully-automatic capture with AutoCapture mode
* Greater control over exposure points with SemiAuto capture mode and Manual mode
* Automatically saves original images for use with desktop HDR programs if desired
* Works on iPhone 3GS where the native camera does not offer an HDR option
* Full support for front facing camera in all three modes (AutoCapture, SemiAuto, and Manual), making composing and taking self portraits easier and more fun than ever
* Supports geo-tagging
* Uses state-of-the-art techniques to automatically align and merge photos
* Convenient sharing features (Facebook, Twitter, email)
Device Requirements:
* iPhone 4S, iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, new iPad, iPad 2, iPad 1, iPod touch 4G
* Requires iOS 4.1 or later
* 5.9 MB
Pricing and Availability:
True HDR 2.4 is $1.99 USD. It is available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Photo & Video category. Promo codes for review purposes are available upon request.

Brush With Jackson is just what kids need to get them brushing - Published on 04/11/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Brush with Jackson is an iPhone/iPad app in which Jackson Rabbit brushes his teeth alongside your child. With supervision children use Jackson as a timer to brush for the recommended 2-3 minutes, twice a day and have fun whilst doing it. The app has been featured in the British Dental Journal and Vital Magazine and has been recommended by senior dentists. By using Jackson morning and night to keep them 'on task' your child should develop the healthy habit of keeping their teeth clean.
Edinburgh, United Kingdom - Brush with Jackson is an app in which Jackson Rabbit brushes his teeth alongside your child. With supervision children use Jackson as a timer to brush for the recommended 2-3 minutes, twice a day and have fun whilst doing it. The app has been featured in the British Dental Journal and Vital Magazine and has been recommended by senior dentists.
By using Jackson morning and night to keep them 'on task' your child should develop the healthy habit of keeping their teeth clean and shiny like Jackson.
As well as addressing the need for tooth brushing in your children, Jackson will repeat what you say to him, giggle loudly when his tummy is tickled, squeal when poked in the tummy, wink an eye when it's touched and twitch his nose when poked.
Whilst amusing your child it will encourage self awareness of parts of the body and hand eye coordination.
Jackson will also 'play' his toothbrush with various instrument sounds designed to amuse and entertain! This is great for long car journeys or when you need a distraction for getting them into car seats or buggies.
There is also a high definition version called Brush With Jackson HD which takes advantage of the capabilities of the iPad.
Here are some of the things that people have been saying about Brush With Jackson in the Apple App Store:
* Just What Kids Need!! - This is great and targeted at the right age group who need all the help they can get to focus on the Job.As a qualified dentist I'll be recommending this! Great price for a great app, because what price could you put on your children's dental health??Well done RosiesPlaytime!!BD
* Brush With Jackson - This is incredible. My children love it. Not only does he encourage great teeth cleaning, you can tickle the Rabbit's tummy and enjoy him repeating what they say back to them. He plays musical instruments, (which can be a bit annoying but not a problem!), make him wink and get a reaction from touching his nose! We all enjoy our time with Jackson now and what could be an awkward time before is now a pleasure - for us all!
* Great App! - My son is 8 and he loves this app! He treats Jackson more like a friend and loves to be able to brush his teeth with him. It's certainly more interesting than watching the electric toothbrush timer!
Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad
* Requires iOS 4.2 or later
* 59.8 MB
Pricing and Availability:
Brush with Jackson 1.2 is $1.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Health & Fitness category. And HD iPad version is also available for $3.99.

Baruch Richter, one of the app's developers had this to share about Find a Way Jose. "We at Artlab, are addicted to sliding-block puzzle games such as Rush Hour and Unblock Me. We felt that we want to pay a tribute to the genre, and decided to create a much more robust and fun take on it. Our game uses a bigger grid, new sliding-block mechanics, such as unmovable obstacles, irregular blocks, the ability to slide blocks in all 4 directions, various canvases, appealing visuals, music and a strong funny narrative about this Jose fella.
Basically, this guy is willing to go through a lot of difficulties in order to find his long-lost exquisite bottle of tequila. Our game also has an internal level builder, for the creative types, who would like to create their own original levels."
Notable Highlights:
* Move Tetris-like-shaped blocks in all 4 directions. Some blocks are non-movable and act as obstacles
* Flex your brain with 60 challenging puzzles that will keep you playing for days
* Enjoy 6 originally crafted worlds with richly-detailed graphics
* Accumulate J-Coins as you play along to unlock frustratingly hard levels
* Craft your own levels with our exclusive Level Builder

* Solve all 60 puzzles to reveal the mysterious game ending
* Submit your score and progress with Game Center support and Twitter and Facebook integration
* Originally composed soundtracks for each world

IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Noise Industries, developer of visual effects tools for the post-production and broadcast markets, introduces Sheffield Softworks Look Sweet II to FxFactory, available now for Final Cut Pro, Motion and After Effects. The family of plugins allows editors to sweeten the look of any footage by brightening dark images, fine-tuning saturation and desaturation, polishing, and more.

Boston, Massachusetts - Noise Industries, developer of visual effects tools for the post-production and broadcast markets, introduces Sheffield Softworks Look Sweet II to FxFactory, available now for Final Cut Pro, Motion and After Effects. The family of plugins allows editors to sweeten the look of any footage by brightening dark images, fine-tuning saturation and desaturation, polishing, and more. Look Sweet II can be purchased for 29 USD through FxFactory.
Sheffield Softworks Look Sweet II Plugins Include:
* Mr. Fixit EZ - The ultimate, easy to use footage rescue system, Mr. Fixit EZ uses HDR photography techniques to build the brightest possible shadows and the darkest possible highlights. Users can mix them back into the original image without affecting the color. It also offers the option to flatten the highlights, giving an overall brighter image.
* Vibrance Plus - With fine control over saturation and desaturation of clips, editors can increases chroma faster in the lower saturation areas, for a more vibrant image.
* Bounce Fill - This plugin simulates the use of a colored bounce fill reflector. It defaults to a gold reflector, but can be set to any color. Because the reflectivity of items in the image varies according their color relationship to the color of the reflector, an optional invert clip can alter the influence of the fill light based on an object's color.
* Super Glam - Giving footage the final polish, Super Glam is a combination of sharpening highlights and softening shadows. This processing can be done on the full color image, or on the luminance alone, leaving chroma untouched and bringing dull footage to life.
