Washington based PhatWare today announces PhatPad 2.3 for iPad, an update to their PhatWare note-taking and collaboration application. PhatPad enables users to jot notes in their own handwriting. Designed to encourage collaboration among a work-team, PhatPad allows team members to draw, write, record voice notes and type on the iPad.

MediRounds LLC releases MediRounds, the premier medical rounding app - Published on 07/30/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

MediRounds LLC today announced that their app, MediRounds, is now available for the iPad. Until now, physicians have lacked an easy way to organize and track patient information. This physician-designed medical rounding app serves as both a clinical tool and as an educational platform to improve the clinician's approach to medical rounding. The systems-based, color-coordinated format of the main screen enables fast input and easy scanning of patient information.

Los Angeles, California - MediRounds LLC today is pleased to announce that their app, MediRounds, is now available for the iPad. This physician-designed medical rounding app serves as both a clinical tool and as an educational platform to improve the clinician's approach to medical rounding. With its intuitive design and contextual functionality, MediRounds makes it fast and easy for clinicians to track, access, maintain, and analyze data related to patient rounds.

MediRounds eliminates the need for handwritten rounding sheets by providing a user-friendly interface where clinicians can input key information collected during rounds as well as "Air Print" or email notes at the end of the day. The systems-based, color-coordinated format of the main screen enables fast input and easy scanning of patient information. MediRounds app allows clinicians to maintain patient lists, track "to-do's", view patient status, and quickly access historical information for that patient's stay.

In addition to supporting clinicians in daily activities, MediRounds also serves as a teaching platform with tutorials on key topics such as Critical Thinking in Medicine, Decision-Making on Rounds, Constructing the Presentation, and more. The data trending capability of the app helps clinicians ask the right questions and contextualize patient data (e.g., the five-day trend in the respiratory rate or serum creatinine).

"Technology has evolved to the point where digital devices can be used to improve physicians' clinical performance. MediRounds addresses the high cognitive workload and time pressure that clinicians face daily. Realizing the limitations of humans to retain and assimilate the large volume of data and information available in the care of patients, MediRounds is designed to place this data and information into clinical context and display it in a way that clinicians think. The end result will be enhanced critical thinking during the patient encounter." said David Epstein, MD, Founder & President of MediRounds, LLC. MediRounds complies with all HIPAA regulations and encryption guidelines. The app is 100% functional even in the absence of internet access, ensuring instantaneous and easy access to patient information.

Device Requirements:
* Compatible with iPad
* Requires iOS 5.1 or later
* 5.0 MB

Pricing and Availability:
MediRounds 1.0 is now available for $29.99 in the United States and is priced accordingly in other regions. The company intends to release soon iPhone and iPod touch versions of the app. Please see MediRounds online for more information, including videos and screenshots. For additional questions or support, please contact support.

Islandssoftware today announces Triplog 2.1 for iOS, an update to their Business application that tracks vehicle usage, mileage, and trips. An ideal tool for travelers, employers, and employees, this application provides accurate, detailed travel information for use in business travel reimbursement, travel expense tax deductions, and vehicle travel tracking. Triplog's update provides iCloud sync, trip data deletion protection, customizable fuel prices, and trip record export specifications.

Oslo, Norway - Islandssoftware today is pleased to announce Triplog 2.1 for iOS, an update to their Business application that tracks vehicle usage, mileage, and trips. An ideal tool for travelers, employers, and employees, this application provides accurate, detailed travel information for use in business travel reimbursement, travel expense tax deductions, and vehicle travel tracking. Triplog's update provides protection against accidental cessation or deletion of trip information, more customization options of fuel prices, and specification of trip records to be exported. With version 2.1, the app now uses Apple�s iCloud to allow synchronization of data between a user's mobile devices, and Triplog is available for both iPad and iPhone/iPod touch, making it simple to manage travel data.

To use Triplog, users tap the arrow Drive button and tap Start to begin tracking information about a trip. Triplog will automatically turn on the GPS in the device and begin tracking the location and journey. When a user has reached their destination, the current trip may be saved by tapping the Stop button. The trip screen will be displayed and the user will be given the choice to save or delete the trip. Users may also add trip information such as costs, trip purpose, and comments to be saved with the trip information. The simple yet efficient user interface makes this application quick and easy to use. With its intuitive graphic interface, Triplog makes mileage tracking effortless for even the most non-technical of users.

Triplog allows users to register trips on multiple vehicles, making this application useful for travelers who use many vehicles or rental cars for business traveling. For each vehicle, users can save the vehicle name, registration number, distance driven, and picture for easy reference. Triplog also allows users to add pre-defined locations and addresses under the Locations tab. Entering Home, Office, or School locations allows users to minimize the data entered for travel to or from these locations.

Triplog automatically saves all registered trips. Users may edit and add new trips. The application also gives users easy access to trips in the current month as well as all previous trips in the database. Users may access trip data in a list form or as a graph. Information available provides details on trip departure and arrival locations via Google Maps, as well as fuel consumption and costs. Users may export customized history reports as PDF or CSV files via email or Dropbox, making this application a must-have for tax write-offs or employer reimbursement. While Triplog is tracking a trip, other applications may be used without affecting the functionality. Triplog will continue to track the trip in the background, even when the device is in standby mode.

Feature Highlights:
* Easy to use graphic interface
* Track mileage, vehicle usage, travel costs, fuel costs and consumption with ease
* Register trips on multiple vehicles
* Add predefined locations for quick trip starts and calculations
* Supports iCloud for sharing data between devices

Business travelers may use this application to request monetary reimbursement from their employers for travel costs. Business owners may use Triplog to document and maximize tax deductions for travel expenses for themselves and employees. Vehicle owners may benefit from Triplog's vehicle usage data to track vehicle usage and fuel efficiency.

Math Ocean 1.1 for iOS: Interactive Math + Logic Practice for Kids - Published on 07/30/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

VCare Creation today announces Math Ocean 1.1 for iOS, an update to their education app for kids, which provides practice in solving basic arithmetic and logic problems. Dory, a lovely girl dolphin, guides students through activities in oceans and on beaches, practicing subtraction, addition, matching, sorting, and completing patterns. With colorful animation, interactive graphics, a talking dolphin, and playful music, the app has two levels of difficulty and meets CCSS standards.

Hong Kong, Hong Kong - VCare Creation today is pleased to announce Math Ocean 1.1 for iOS, an update to their education app for kids, which provides practice in solving basic arithmetic and logic problems. Dory, a lovely girl dolphin, guides students through activities in oceans and on beaches, practicing subtraction, addition, matching, sorting, and completing patterns. Featuring colorful animation, interactive graphics, a talking dolphin, and playful music, the app has two levels of difficulty and conforms to CCSS standards.

Math Ocean Adheres to Common Core State Standards in the Following Domains:
* K.OA.1 - Mathematics - Kindergarten - Operations & Algebraic Thinking - Represent addition and subtraction with objects, fingers, mental images, drawings, sounds, acting out situations, verbal explanations, expressions, or equations (Math Ocean Addition/Subtraction Levels 1 & 2)
* K.OA.2 - Mathematics - Kindergarten - Operations & Algebraic Thinking - Solve addition and subtraction word problems, and add and subtract within 10, e.g., by using objects or drawings to represent the problem (Math Ocean Addition/Subtraction Level 2)
* K.OA.5 - Mathematics - Kindergarten - Operations & Algebraic Thinking - Fluently add and subtract within 5 (Math Ocean Addition/Subtraction Level 1)
* K.CC.7 - Mathematics - Kindergarten - Counting & Cardinality - Compare two numbers between 1 and 10 presented as written numerals (Math Ocean Sorting)
* K.G.4 - Mathematics - Kindergarten - Geometry - Analyze and compare 2D/3D shapes, in different sizes and orientations, using informal language to describe their similarities, differences, parts (e.g., number of sides and vertices/corners) and other attributes (Math Ocean Matching)
* K.G.6 - Mathematics - Kindergarten - Geometry - Compose simple shapes to form larger shapes (Math Ocean Matching)

Math Ocean operates in landscape orientation, and Dory, the pink animated dolphin, always appears on the far left of the screen. She reads aloud each question that is written at the top of the screen as an equation or word problem. At launch, kids can choose from five different educational activities, each in a different locale. For a greater challenge, users can touch Dory after answering a question, immediately moving to another location. In this way, users can either concentrate on a single skill, or practice all five skills one after another.

Feature Highlights:
* Join Dory the Dolphin practicing basic math and logic skills
* Antarctic Ocean - Subtraction: Let the hopping penguins jump into sea and learn how to subtract
* Indian Ocean - Addition: Learn how to add as more fish arrive
* Pacific Ocean - Matching: Help repairing the broken submarine by putting on the windows in correct shape and color
* Beach - Sorting: Arrange the lovely creatures/toys in correct sequence
* Beach - Patterns: Complete the pattern in logical order with correct toys
* Most of the instrumental music recorded in this app is originally composed
* Level 1 includes addition/subtraction with numbers up to 5
* Level 2 includes addition/subtraction with numbers up to 10
* Hint button for addition and subtraction problems

Subtraction is set in the Antarctic Ocean, with hopping penguins demonstrating the operation of taking away and leaving a remainder. Addition practice takes place in the Indian Ocean, and colorful fish swim onto the screen and join the fish already present, illustrating the operation of adding on to an amount and creating a sum. The Pacific Ocean is the site for Matching, where a large submarine navigates onto the screen, and users must drag windows of the correct shape and color to repair those that are broken on the sub. Sorting numbered creatures and toys, by moving each to create the correct sequence, is done on a sandy beachfront. Last, completing a pattern occurs on a beach at the water's edge, as kids are challenged to drag a toy to complete a logical pattern formed by five toys in a row.

Young children are not likely to become bored with Math Ocean, as there is a large library of problems and many bonus features. For example, completing a group of questions successfully lets kids choose a sticker for their collection. Children will also meet helpers like seahorses, penguins, goldfish, and Dory's other friends. And they all have their little secrets, which users can discover. There are three, user-selectable levels of encouragement from Dory, plus a hint button.

"Math Ocean has been carefully developed by our team of engineers, designers, and educators to help kids experience the joy of learning," commented Kit Yu Choy of VCare Creation. "Parents and teachers can be confident that the app meets CCSS standards."

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
* Requires iOS 3.0 or later
* 23.1 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Math Ocean 1.1 is $1.99 (USD) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Education category. Review copies are available on request.

Based in Hong Kong, VCare Creation was founded by Vincent Choy in 2012. The company is a group of young and energetic professionals, who come from different backgrounds, including business administration, computer engineering, fashion design and mobile game design. They share the same belief that mobile devices are the best platform for children to learn skills and develop traits from playing and laughing. In addition, they are dedicated to producing high quality products in every aspect that can make their customers, children and parents highly satisfied. The name VCare (pronounced as we-care) was chosen because they care about how parents use mobile devices as better tools in helping kids learn and enhance interpersonal relationship. VCare is also derived from "vocare," which is a Latin verb meaning call or summon. They believe they work together not only by our will, but also by the will of God. And we are working to answer the calling. Copyright (C) 2012 VCare Creation. All

Reflare Launches Educator-Contributed Kids' Learning App Mr. Bumblebee - Published on 07/30/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Reflare UG today introduces Mr. Bumblebee Learning 1.0, its new educational app for iOS and Android. Developed for children aged 3 to 6, Mr. Bumblebee Learning provides 5 separate play modes teaching colors, numbers, counting, shapes and basic abstract thinking. The app features happy graphics and professional voice acting while protecting young users from outgoing links and social media. The game was designed from the ground up to allow children to play autonomously.

Berlin, Germany - Aided by education professionals and under constant child play-testing, Reflare UG - a German company run out of Japan and Korea - has developed and published "Mr. Bumblebee" for iOS and Android. Mr. Bumblebee provides 5 separate play modes teaching colors, numbers, counting, shapes and basic abstract thinking. Developed for children aged 3 to 6, Mr. Bumblebee features happy graphics and professional voice acting while protecting young users from outgoing links and social media.

Computers have helped to greatly advance the education of adolescents and adults. However, their mouse-and-keyboard interface makes them abstract to use and thus unsuited for the education of small children. Modern mobile phones and tablets will change this by allowing even small children to interact with technology using simple touch controls. Mr. Bumblebee attempts to leverage this interface to teach small children about:

* Colors
* Numbers
* Counting
* Shapes
* Basic abstract thinking

Abstract thinking is taught by combining a color and a shape, forcing the child to delay his/her actions and combine the information provided.

While it is of course highly advisable for parents to play Mr. Bumblebee together with their children, the game was designed from the ground up to allow children to play autonomously. There are no wrong menu choices, no texts, no outgoing links and no integrated social media features. Rewards are given in the form of words of encouragement spoken by an excited motherly female voice.

During tests, this approach has shown to work best for children of the target age group between 3 and 6 but also excited children as young as 2 and as old as 10. Reflare intends to continuously improve Mr. Bumblebee based on the feedback received by users and welcomes all forms of feedback and criticism from parents.

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

Pricing and Availability:
Mr. Bumblebee Learning 1.0 is $1.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Education category.
