PDF Expert 4.2 transforms iPad into interactive presentation tool - Published on 08/08/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Today Readdle, the recognized leader in PDF technologies on the iOS platform, has released PDF Expert 4.2 for iPad, the next version of its top PDF editing application. With PDF Expert 4.2 people can make interactive non-linear presentations in court, class or meeting room. Using three presentation modes, people can combine content from PDF documents, images and videos during keynote and even add notes and comments that are immediately visible to the audience.

Odessa, Ukraine - Today Readdle, the recognized leader in PDF technologies on the iOS platform, has released PDF Expert 4.2 for iPad, the next version of its top PDF editing application that allows people to read, annotate, sign PDF documents, and fill out PDF forms. With PDF Expert 4.2 anyone can combine documents, images, and videos into a great presentation to run in court, class or meeting room.

Presentations made with PDF Expert 4.2 are much more interactive and non-linear than ordinary Powerpoint style keynotes. People can choose an image, PDF or a movie to be shown next. Live annotation tools add a new level of interactivity, making it possible to highlight something on the screen, write down a remark or make an illustration atop the slide.

All this can be done thanks to three presentation modes available in PDF Expert 4.2. The first one is "Screen Mirroring" that displays an exact copy of the application screen to the projector. The second is "Document" that presents only the PDF content and hides the application interface from the audience. At the same time, the presenter can use annotation tools within the application to add notes and comments which are immediately visible to keynote attendees.

"Screenshot" mode is to freeze an image on the external screen while the presenter navigates PDF Expert in search of the document to show next. This mode brings extreme flexibility to the presentation flow. It allows people, for example, to open photos from the crime scene in any order a lawyer might need, completely hiding the navigation process. This makes the presentation fluid and professional for anyone watching.

"PDF Expert is already widely used by teachers, lawyers and executives during meetings, classes and court hearings. Presentation mode added in PDF Expert 4.2 lets these people make non-linear interactive presentations and deliver their message to the audience in a most clear and efficient way," says Alex Tyagulsky, Readdle CMO.

Presentation mode controls are automatically activated when your iPad running PDF Expert 4.2 is connected to a widescreen TV, video projection screen, or other HDMI-compatible display using Apple Digital AV Adapter. The Apple Digital AV Adapter is available in Apple retail stores across the world and online in the Apple Store.

Device Requirements:
* Requires iPad with iOS 4.3 or later
* 18.0 MB

Pricing and availability:
PDF Expert 4.2 for iPad is available on the Apple App Store for $9.99 for new users and as a free upgrade for existing application owners. Enterprise licensing is available upon request.

For companies interested in advanced PDF technologies for use in internal iOS projects or in custom developed iPad applications for clients, Readdle licenses their PDF Expert SDK. PDF Expert SDK is a foundation of the PDF Expert, and allows iOS developers to equip their applications with the most advanced PDF viewer that supports search, annotations, signatures, form filling and many other functions.

Marble Math Junior 1.1 Delivers Major Update Adding Multi-User Accounts - Published on 08/09/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Artgig Apps announces the release of Marble Math Junior 1.1 today, adding multi-user accounts to their popular kids math practice app. Geared for ages 5-8 and based on the Common Core curriculum, Marble Math Junior helps reinforce strategy and problem solving skills as players roll their marble through a math maze. The addition of multi-user accounts allows players to create individual profiles, each with customizable avatars, skills, and game options, and includes a personal game history.

Pleasantville, New York - Artgig Apps is proud to announce the release of Marble Math Junior 1.1 today, adding multi-user accounts to their popular kids math practice app. Geared for ages 5-8 and based on the Common Core curriculum, Marble Math Junior helps reinforce strategy and problem solving skills as players roll their marble through a math maze. The addition of multi-user accounts allows players to create individual profiles, each with customizable avatars, skills, and game options, and includes a personal game history.

Teachers with Apps says, "Marble Math Junior's problems are suitable for younger kids and runs the gamut of concepts needed to build a strong foundation in math from the early primary grades. In addition, early learners who may not be reading yet can tap on a problem to hear it spoken. We LOVE this feature and so did the younger students that we field-tested this app with. This is one essential app that all early elementary school students should have on their iPads."

The object of Marble Math Junior is to solve a variety of math problems by collecting numbers as a player rolls or drags their marble through a series of mazes. Young mathematicians earn new marbles as they avoid obstacles and collect bonuses while working through the problems. There is no time limit - children can work at their own pace, and if they get an answer wrong, they have the opportunity to see the correct solution and then try again.

"Adding individual user accounts is the one request that kept coming up since the app launched in June," says Artgig President Matthew Kicinski. "Now parents and educators can add as many users as they like on a single device and each child can practice math at their own specific level and save their progress. The update also includes a fun avatar creator that we think kids will love."

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

Pricing and Availability:
Marble Math Junior 1.1 is $1.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Education category.

Thank Dog! Free Mobile App for iPhone - Your Dog Is Your Workout Partner - Published on 08/09/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Thank Dog! Bootcamp today introduces Thank Dog! Mobile App 1.0 for iPhone, their free app that offers a program of cardio and strength training, plus dog obedience training, all at the same time. Based on the highly successful TDBC founded in LA in 2008, the app includes 20 1-hour routines, enough for a month. Users can listen to music as they are guided through each routine, receiving instructions over earphones, and they have complete control to pause, repeat or view how-to videos.

Burbank, California - Thank Dog! Bootcamp today is pleased to introduce Thank Dog! Mobile App 1.0 free for iPhone/iPod touch, their health & fitness app that allows users to enjoy a challenging program of cardio and strength training, plus dog obedience training, all at the same time. Based on the highly successful TDBC founded in LA in 2008, the app includes 20 1-hour routines, enough for a month. Users can listen to any music shuffle or playlist as they are guided through each routine. Periodically, the music fades and users receive instructions over earphones. All walking/jogging/running and strength-building exercises are performed accompanied by their dog, and dog obedience commands are integrated into every part of the routine. Exercises are performed with the aid of a resistance band worn like a sash, and users can refer to the app's user interface at any time to pause, repeat, look at graphics, or view how-to videos.

Feature Highlights:
* Complete exercise program for people and their dogs
* Integrated dog obedience training during cardio and strength workouts
* 20 different 1-hour routines focus on all major muscle groups
* Listen to music during the routine
* GPS support provides total distance covered at the end of the workout
* Share a workout on Facebook or Twitter
* App website loaded with information, images and tips

Thank Dog! Bootcamp is a truly innovative solution for experienced fitness buffs and beginners alike. The cardiovascular parts of the program benefit both dogs and their owners, making both physically tired and mentally stimulated. Included are a variety of heart rate boosting activities, such as jogs, sprints, high knees, wide steps, and more. At every step, users are encouraged to go at their own pace, substituting activities of lesser or greater difficulty whenever appropriate.

The resistance band is used throughout the routine, as users receive instruction through various strength-training exercises while their dog learns to stay. The five days of each week are each devoted to different parts of the body, so that all major muscle groups are worked. The app's interface displays the image and description of the current exercise, and instructional videos help users perform all exercises correctly. There is also an app website that contains the same information and much more to support the user experience (see links below).

While the Thank Dog! Bootcamp facility in LA incorporates 9 dog commands in their program, the Thank Dog! Mobile App includes only the 4 most basic: heel, sit, down, and stay. Whenever users are moving, they are simultaneously working with the leash, commands, and treats to help train the dog to heel. Commands are given rapidly, as users circle their dog, which is in down or sit position.

On launch in portrait orientation, there are eight buttons, allowing the user to navigate to any part of the app. They include:
* How It Works - detailed, narrative YouTube video of how the program works
* Teach Commands 1-4 - 5 YouTube videos that instruct the user how to teach their dog the commands used in the program
* Workout Routines - 20 different workouts used in the app
* Exercises - every exercise and cardio performed in the app (more than 50)
* Dog Commands - the Command Menu contains every command performed in the app
* Music Playlist/Settings - before selecting the routine, users choose their songs from the Music Playlist/Settings page
* Info/About - app credits and a link to the Thank Dog! Bootcamp, LLC website
* Past Workouts - a page that lists all past workouts, including full details

"If you're into fitness and you have a dog...a tired dog is a good dog, a trained dog is an even better dog!" stated Jill Bowers of Thank Dog! Bootcamp. "Get your iPhone, grab your leash and come train with us!"

Device Requirements:
* iPhone 3GS/4/4S, iPod touch (3rd/4th generation), and iPad 1/2/3
* Requires iOS 4.0 or later
* Some instructional videos require an Internet connection
* 22.4 MB

Pricing and Availability:

Birdwatcher's Diary iOS App Adds Direct Uploading to eBird - Published on 08/09/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Stevens Creek Software has released Birdwatcher�s Diary 5.0, an update to their popular birding checklist database app for iOS. The perfect birdwatcher's field companion. In seconds, you can make a note of birds you see or hear, including time and exact location, with additional field notes if you wish. Version 5.0 introduces an iPad native version, and supports user submission of bird sightings lists directly to eBird from the field and adds many more new features and improvements.

Cupertino, California - Stevens Creek Software, developers of Birdwatcher's Diary iOS app, has released version 5.0 of their birding checklist database app which allows birders to upload their bird sightings lists from the field to the Cornell Laboratory of Ornithology bird species database called eBird. In addition, version 5.0 is the first iPad native version. Other advances include support for Dropbox, ability to import bird photos, and many other new features and ease-of-use improvements.

"Being able to upload their bird sightings directly to eBird from the iPhone will appeal to many birders. And this is just one of the new features in version 5.0. It's the most major upgrade we've done in the 3 years since Birdwatcher's Diary was available at the Apple iTunes Store." said Steven Patt, president of Stevens Creek Software.

With version 5.0, Birdwatcher's Diary is now available as an iPad native app. Other new features include:
* Ability to upload photos to the bird species notes.
* Dropbox support for saving and retrieving archived sightings.
* More versatility in the types of maps displayed.
* Download any of the many worldwide master bird lists available on the Stevens Creek Software web site directly from the app.
* Many tips, prompts and warnings to help the user access features and avoid data entry mistakes.

Previous versions of Birdwathchers Diary app, first released in June 2010, provided the ability to save a bird sightings list in the format required by eBird. Then the user had to transmit the list to his computer for uploading to the eBird database. With the new update, the birder can upload the bird sightings directly from the iPhone or iPad to eBird. eBird, a project of the Cornell Laboratory of Ornithology, is an online database of worldwide bird observations submitted by ornithologists and amateur birders alike which provides researchers, scientists and the general public with real-time data about bird species sightings. It has gained much popularity amongst birdwatchers eager to contribute to the ever-growing body of knowledge about wild bird species distribution and abundance.

Pricing and Availability:
The Stevens Creek Software web site, provides full information on the newest features, including a video demonstration. Birdwatcher's Diary runs on all iOS devices 3.1 or later. The app is available for $12.99 (USD) and is priced accordingly in other regions. Stevens Creek Software donates 50% of its proceeds from this app to bird conservation organizations.

Users plug in their plans along with when they will occur and, if they choose, the location or place of the event. Friends on the when.me network are able to view published plans and may join them as well. Along with sharing on this new social network, users can share their plans through Facebook or Twitter. when.me notifies users with helpful alerts.

Miami, Florida - Mediaspree today is pleased to introduce when.me 1.0, a new Social-Local-Mobile (SoLoMo) app for planning events and forecasting future locations with friends. Users plug in their plans along with when they will occur and, if they choose, the location or place of the event. Friends on the when.me network are able to view their plans and join them as well. Along with the sharing on this new social network, users may also share their plans through Facebook or Twitter to let more friends know. when.me notifies users of their plans with helpful alerts according to the preset times, and users may always view a countdown until their next event occurs on the app. The app was designed from the ground up with the principles of Social-Local-Mobile in mind, connecting friends to the places they are going to be - when they are going to be there.

Feature Highlights:
* Easy to list events and timespan through the simple layout
* Users may coordinate with friends and join other users' events
* Helpful device alerts serve as reminders of plans
* Location option allows users to elaborate on their plans
* Users gain points for completed events and partake in friendly competition on the leaderboard
* Add photos prior to or during events
* Share events on Facebook and Twitter

The new when.me network serves as a fantastically interactive event calendar, allowing users to have fun while planning events and forecasting future locations. Users keep friends up to date with their lives or invite them to join. when.me makes it easy to find friends; users simply enter either a friend's email or username to search the network. The app is conveniently compatible with other social networks such as Facebook and Twitter, as well, making users able to involve more friends in their when.me plans.

The when.me app creates a running countdown for each event users enter, allowing them to check back and see just how long it is until that next exciting plan, whether it's happening later today, next week, or in fifteen years. The when.me app also sends optional reminders to the user's device when an event is occurring that help keep the user on schedule and organized.

Though the network focuses on the 'when' of its user events, the app's advanced location awareness features allow users to find specific locations and add them to their plans. Users also personalize their descriptions of plans and choose whether to publish them to the when.me network or keep them as only personal reminders. Before events occur, or while the user is completing them, he or she may add photos to the plans to add to the experience.

Users may view the when.me timeline at any time, which shows all events that have been published by fellow members of the when.me network. These events are open for users to join. Whenever users share their events, they gain points, and may participate in the friendly competition shown on the leaderboard of when.me members. Users also gain points when they mark events as happening or complete.

The privacy settings in the when.me app also allow users to keep their events completely private, disabling all sharing if they prefer. This way, when.me becomes a truly interactive personal or public calendar, conforming to the preferences of each individual user. It merges and organizes users' personal and public plans.

"The focus on when.me is less about WHERE you are going and more about WHEN you are going to be there," says lead developer Eric English. "It's about long term goal planning as well as sharing just what local bar you are going to tonight."

Device Requirements:
* iPhone 3GS/4/4S, iPod touch (3rd/4th generation), and iPad 1/2/3
* Requires iOS 5.1 or later
* 4.7MB

Pricing and Availability:
when.me 1.0 is free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Social Networking category.

Ava the Talking Witch 1.0 - Understands and Performs Spells - Published on 08/09/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Lingsoft today introduces Ava the Talking Witch 1.0, an interactive game featuring Ava, a bubbly witch who replies to the user and performs various spells with her magic wand when she is told. Ava can perform Nature spells that feature elements such as butterflies and fireworks as well as many different Transformation spells that change her into various cultural icons. Users can share their interactions with Ava via Facebook, Instagram, or other social networking sites.

Luoyang, China - Lingsoft today is pleased to introduce Ava the Talking Witch 1.0, an interactive game featuring Ava, a bubbly witch who replies to the user and performs various spells with her magic wand when she is told. Ava can perform nine Nature spells that feature elements such as butterflies and fireworks as well as nine different Transformation spells that change her into various cultural icons, such as a hula dancer or martial arts expert. Users can take pictures and video at any time during the game and share their interactions with Ava via Facebook, Instagram, or other social networking sites.

Feature Highlights:
* Ava can understand spells users read and performs them
* Nine different Transformations into national costumes from around the world
* Nine different Nature spells accompanied by thrilling animations
* Take a picture or video and share it quickly and easily with friends on Facebook, YouTube, and more
* Ava reacts to the user's touch and words
* Check in on Ava every 24 hours for a free mushroom
* Mystical background sounds add to the app's excitement
* Ava can always understand English, and can understand Chinese Mandarin when device settings are set to Simplified Chinese

Upon opening the application, the user is greeted with clear enthusiasm by Ava the Talking Witch. The user can then open Ava's handy Nature spell book at the bottom of the screen and read aloud the spells she is able to conduct. Ava, hearing and understanding the speaker's words, is eager to comply by performing the spoken spell with her magic wand, implementing spells ranging from bright butterflies that flood the screen to vivid firework displays. Nine different options of such spells exist, and a picture is unlocked in the spell book each time one of them is enacted.

Ava's Transformation spells require a bit more involvement on the part of the user, who must first choose a properly colored mushroom before speaking one of the matching spells in Ava's Transformation spell book. While the astounding quality of watching Ava as she understands the speaker's words is especially notable in this app, the user may also click on any spell in either book if he or she does not wish to speak. After this is done, Ava then transforms according to the chosen spell, one of nine separate choices, donning a cultural costume from somewhere around the world. This notable opportunity for cultural connection provides the user with views of such national dances as the Spanish Flamenco, Hawaiian Hula, and more.

Once Ava performs her dance, a picture is automatically taken of her in her cultural attire. This picture can then be easily uploaded to Facebook or Instagram, or emailed, according to the user's preference through buttons that appear on the screen. Pictures and video may also be taken of Ava throughout the interactive game at any point and as easily uploaded to social networking sites.

Ava's interaction with the user does not stop at simply performing her spells. She responds to touch as well, and will act out different enchanting animations when the user touches her hat, boots, tummy, or magic wand. She makes one such charming gesture in response to the words, "Ava, I love you" as well, and her interactivity with the user is one of the qualities that makes her so lovable, and it truly sets Ava the Talking Witch apart from similar apps.

"You read the spells aloud and she performs the magic, responding in a cute baby voice," says Jun Zhu of Lingsoft. "Make your magical dreams come true!"

Language Support:
* English, Chinese, German, French, Korean, Japanese, and Spanish

Device Requirements:
* Requires iOS 4.2 or later (iOS 5 tested)

Spinlight Studio gives bedtime stories a whole new spin - Published on 08/08/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

With their latest release, Spinlight Studio has turned the page on children's storybooks by eliminating the page turn altogether. Fun and engaging, "Pixel and Parker" is the first in a coming line of Spintale adventures apps that use an interactive spinner to advance the story, with more than 30 activities to enjoy along the way. Will Parker find his cat and make it home before sunset? There's only one way to find out in this whimsical children's adventure that's never the same tale twice.

Champaign, Illinois - Spinlight Studio is at it again, with "Pixel and Parker," their seventh title and first foray into children's books. But this time, they're not just releasing another app, they're changing the way stories are told.

"Plenty of people are digitizing books," says Matt Hutton, partner + creative director of Spinlight. "That's been done. For us, the challenge is finding new ways to tell a story that make the most of the modern touchscreen devices." With "Pixel and Parker," they've shared one vision of what that could look like, using a game board spinner to advance the story - and giving bedtime stories a whole new twist.

The first adventure, aptly called a Spintale, follows the adventure of a young boy searching for his cat. With every spin, there's a different activity that moves the action forward. And while there are no pages to turn, there's plenty to discover, from musical cattails, to a store window filled with animated toys, to presents that let the reader change the look of the character. Throw in original music, whimsical narration and beautiful illustrations, and you've got a wonderful bedtime adventure that's never the same story twice.

Pixel and Parker features:
* A fun storybook adventure
* Innovative spinning action that alters the path of the game
* Over 30 activities
* 30 T-shirts that readers can use to customize the main character
* Original illustration, music and narration.
* No in-app purchases
* Plus app design

Device Requirements:
* iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, 3/4G iPod touch and iPad
* Requires iOS 4.0 or later
* 30.6 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Pixel and Parker 1.0 is only $1.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Books category.
