Alexandria, Virginia - Vito Technology is proud to announce a major upgrade to its Star Walk app - the augmented reality app for spotting over 200,000 stars, planets, constellations, satellites and galaxies in the night sky. The new version has been released for Back to School season and includes amazing visual effects of sunset and sunrise, new Info for objects, stunning galleries of astronomy pictures from ESO and ESA, and easy sharing options.
Star Walk is a handy astronomy guide that shows celestial objects (stars, constellations, satellites, etc.) in the exact positions on the sky above you, providing comprehensive information about them. It helps anyone even remotely interested in astronomy find their way across the sky, determine where to look for any chosen object, rewind or fast-forward time to see how celestial bodies move. It inspires curiosity about the Universe and helps understand amazing cosmic phenomena.
The visible and invisible parts of the sky are divided with colors that change in accordance with the time of the day. For the day time the sky is blue and bright, for the night time it is dark blue and black. Due to the improved visual effects the sunset and sunrise on a device look very realistic with flares and rays across the sky. To view it one can choose the Sun and fast forward the Time Machine on the right side bar or meet a sunset with Star Walk app.
To make the adventure to outer Space even more educational Vito Technology team added new experience to the object Info. The new Info window features numerous pictures of the object, "Did you Know?" facts, figures about sizes and distances, detailed descriptions and Wikipedia articles.

Word Slots - A New Type of Word Game Plans to Reinvent Market - Published on 08/29/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
OatyCakes Software today introduces Word Slots 1.0 for iOS, a new spin on word games. Word Slots, with its innovative letter randomizer and game play, is set to reinvent a market that has been lacking change. In Word Slots, letters appear on slot machine reels and it is up to the player to bet how many words they think they'll be able to make. Some spins may be effortless, while others may be almost impossible.
Albuquerque, New Mexico - OatyCakes Software today is pleased to introduce Word Slots 1.0 for iOS, a new spin on word games. Word Slots, with its innovative letter randomizer and game play, is set to reinvent a market that has been lacking change.
Since the release of the first word games back in 1948, the industry has stayed stagnant. "Looking at the top word games today, they're almost all the same," says Lane Thompson, Chief Development Officer at OatyCakes, "the games currently out there are rehashes of a world before computers, much less smart phones."
That is what OatyCakes is going to change with the release of Word Slots. Designed and developed in Albuquerque, NM, Word Slots hopes to shake up the market. In Word Slots, letters appear on slot machine reels and it is up to the player to bet how many words they think they'll be able to make. Some spins may be effortless, while others may be almost impossible. As Lane says, "that introduces an element of uncertainty that's lacking in today's word games."
The advantages to this design is that it encourages guessing at words you're not sure about. The element that makes Word Slots different from any other game, however, is that it is winnable. As Mr. Thompson says, "When the timer goes off on some word games, they tell you how many words you could have made. That leaves you frustrated. When you win a spin in Word Slots, you get an amazing sense of accomplishment."
Word Slots is available for the iPhone and iPod touch starting August 28th for 99 cents. More information is available at OatyCakes online.
Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
* Requires iOS 4.2 or later
* 28.9 MB
Pricing and Availability:
Word Slots 1.0 is only $0.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category.

MoboMath 2.2 Adds Handwriting Adaptation and Mountain Lion Support - Published on 08/30/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Enventra Inc. today announced the latest release of MoboMath, the popular handwritten equation editor for Mac OS X. MoboMath 2.2 adds support for OS X Mountain Lion and introduces new tools to adapt to a user's individual handwriting style. If users write a character in a special way, they can now train MoboMath to recognize it. MoboMath 2.2 is available from the Mac App Store with reduced back-to-school pricing for a limited time.
Lexington, Massachusetts - Enventra Inc. today announced the latest release of MoboMath, the popular handwritten equation editor for Mac OS X. Now available in the Mac App Store, MoboMath 2.2 adds support for OS X Mountain Lion and introduces new tools to adapt to a user's individual handwriting style.
If users write a character in a special way, they can now teach MoboMath to recognize it by entering samples of the character in their own handwriting. MoboMath then analyzes these samples and trains itself to recognize that character in the future.
"Although MoboMath is writer independent and normally doesn't require adaptation, some people may write a character in a unique way that doesn't match any of the millions of handwriting samples on which MoboMath is based," explained Terry Rochford, president of Enventra. "With this new release, these users can now train MoboMath to understand their personal handwriting style."
MoboMath 2.2 also includes the same great features as earlier versions:
* Easy handwritten formula entry without tedious keyboard or palette input
* Reusable equations that can be included in documents, presentations, web pages, or calculations
* Built-in support for popular applications like Microsoft Word, Mathematica, Maple, MathMagic, MathType, and apps like iWork that use MathType as an equation editor
* Standards-based MathML and TeX support for other applications
* Simple equation editing for any changes
* Easy customization for individual needs, tailored to each user's level of math
* Optimized support for external pen and tablet use
Special pricing offers will be available during the back to school season to help students and educators save while preparing for the new academic year.
System Requirements:
* Mac OS X 10.6.6 or later
* 64-bit processor
* An external tablet and pen are recommended for best results
Pricing and Availability:
MoboMath 2.2 is normally priced at $17.99 USD (or an equivalent amount in other currencies) and is available worldwide exclusively through the Mac App Store in the Productivity and Education categories. Special promotional prices are now available for a limited time during the back to school season. More information about MoboMath can be found on the Enventra web site.

When using traditional charging cables with these devices, users have to go to their tablet or phone and wake the screen to see if the device is fully charged. When using the Charge-Glo Sync cable, the Charge-Glo Indicator lets users see if their mobile device is fully charged from across the room, taking the mystery and hassle out of mobile charging.
Compatible iPods and iPhones can be charged by connecting the Charge-Glo Sync Cable to a standard USB power source such as a 1 amp USB charge adapter, Mac or PC. Compatible iPads can be charged by connecting the cable to a 2.1 amp USB power source.
Like other Apple 30-pin cables, Charge-Glo Sync Cables also support data synchronization for mobile Apple devices.
"We're pleased to launch our mobile accessories product line featuring Charge-Glo technology," says Perry Solomon, Aleratec's President and CEO. "These products provide an innovative solution for today's mobile consumers without compromising the standards of quality and innovation that have built our reputation as the 'Prosumers' Choice.'"
Aleratec's Charge-Glo Sync Cables are designed to be used with the iPod touch (1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th generations), the iPhone 4S, iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPhone 3G, iPad 3rd Generation, iPad 2 and iPad, and have been certified to meet Apple performance standards.

Back to School Promotion - iPad Story App for Kids, free for a day - Published on 08/30/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Polymash Inc. today announces their "Back To School" special pricing for The Crankamcallit, a highly interactive iPad app for kids, free on Thursday, August 30th, and 60% off over the Labor Day weekend. Visually rich, and filled with stunning animation, it is a children's story about building a fantastic imaginary vehicle. Children are drawn into a curious, three-dimensional world of an inventor's workshop. It's an auditory delight, with surprising sounds, playful, rhythmic language and rhyme.
Atlantic Highlands, New Jersey - Polymash Inc. today is pleased to announce their special back to school pricing for its iPad app, The Crankamacallit, an original interactive children's story. The app will be free all day Thursday, August 30th, and reduced by 60% throughout Labor Day Weekend.
On the surface, The Crankamacallit is a children's story about building a fantastic imaginary vehicle. The story is visually rich, filled with stunning animation. As well, it's an auditory delight, with surprising sounds, playful, rhythmic language and rhyme. Children (and their parents!) are drawn into a curious, three-dimensional world of an inventor's workshop. 4-8 year old kids are mesmerized by the step-by-step process of The Crankamacallit's creation. They are active participants in the adventure as they make unexpected discoveries, explore 360-degree panoramas, play with the hidden drawing tool and the official seal, and fill up balloons, making them float to the top of the airplane hanger, and lots more.
This app takes some risks that sets it apart from most children's stories. The developer took a page out of game design by utilizing a first person perspective in interactivity, animation and illustration. Interactive elements are intentionally not highlighted nor easy to find. User testing feedback revealed kids "get it" and teach their parents the functionality, not the other way around. Another risk was to use the Adobe Digital Publishing Suite platform to create a children's book, and to extend its core functions with HTML5 and JavaScript coding. The developers have since published multiple titles using Adobe Digital Publishing and, with this app, show that the platform can be used for much more than just the digital magazines for which it was originally created.
Every page is an invitation to discover objects that move, trigger animation or produce fun sounds, adding surprise and delight to the reading experience. This app, as an emerging digital storytelling art-form, aspires to deliver on Apple's vision on the iPad: "It's in Apple's DNA that technology alone is not enough. That it's technology married with liberal arts, married with the humanities that yields us the result that makes our heart sing." (Steve Jobs at the launch of iPad 2.)
One user's review captures it well:" It's not a book of puzzles. It's a book that tells a story (obviously), and invites you to explore the world created so cleverly by the graphic artist. Don't leave a single stone unturned when you go through the book, or, give it to your 3 year old and sit back and be amazed."
Part poem, part prose, this rhythmic 3D fantasy was written by Mimi Cross, animated by Juergen Berkessel and narrated by acclaimed singer songwriter Robert Burke Warren, aka "Uncle Rock". Listeners will laugh out loud at the nuances of Warren's performance. Using playful, rhythmic language and rhyme.
Features include:
* Interactive Animation and video
* Unique 3D artwork and unusual illustrations
* Music and mechanical sounds
* 360 degree panoramas
* 3D interactive rotational objects
* Pan and zoom chart
* A hidden picture scratch off scene
* Drawing widget
* "Secret" hotspots
* Picture Gallery
Please note that this application is available in English Language only.
Device Requirements:
* Compatible with iPad
* Requires iOS 3.2 or later
* 241 MB
Pricing and Availability:
The Crankamacallit 1.0 is FREE on Thursday August 30th, and will be available at the reduced price of $1.99 (or equivalent amount in other currencies) over the rest of Labor Day Weekend. It will be available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Books category.

Mindshapes and BBC Worldwide Partner to Bring Wibbly Pig to Magic Town - Published on 08/30/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Mindshapes and BBC Worldwide are teaming up to make Wibbly Pig, the popular children's book and cartoon series, available in Magic Town. Magic Town is an interactive world based on popular stories and well-known characters from children's books and television shows. Wibbly Pig joins a long list of Magic Town residents including Elmer, Little Princess, Winnie the Witch, Little Red Riding Hood, and Aliens Love Underpants.
London, United Kingdom - Mindshapes and BBC Worldwide are teaming up to make Wibbly Pig, the popular children's book and cartoon series, available in Magic Town. Magic Town is an interactive world based on popular stories and well-known characters from children's books and television shows. Wibbly Pig joins a long list of Magic Town residents including Elmer, Little Princess, Winnie the Witch, Little Red Riding Hood, and Aliens Love Underpants.
Both the Magic Town app for iPad and its website are designed for children aged 2 to 6 years old to enjoy either independently or with an adult. There are more than 100 stories, or "Livebooks," to choose from. And since the app's June debut, children from 160 countries have read close to 300,000 Livebooks. Mindshapes created the Livebook format in close collaboration with child development experts including Professor Paul Harris at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. The goal is to use storytelling to stimulate children's imagination, reasoning, social skills and language development.
The Wibbly Pig series is based on the best-selling books by Mick Inkpen. Wibbly Pig lives in his own gentle little world. There is no limit to where his adventures might take children, whether it's up to a castle to find three giants, leading an orchestra of animals, flying on a balloon journey or taking a trip on a cloud! In Magic Town, Wibbly Pig invites children to follow him on his adventures along with his friends Big Pig, the Pig Twins, Scruffy Pig, Pig Ears, Tiny Pig, Aunt Larlie and Spotty Pig.
Christian Dorffer, Chief Commercial Officer, Mindshapes: "Partnering with BBC Worldwide is hugely exciting for us as we continue building Magic Town to become the interactive brand of choice for parents and preschoolers around the world. BBC Worldwide has a treasure trove of quality children's entertainment to share with us as Magic Town becomes the go-to iPad app and website for parents searching for high quality, educational brands for their children."
Jenny Fielding, Head of Digital Ventures, BBC Worldwide added: "BBC Worldwide is always looking to work with exciting new innovative platforms that enable us to further our audiences' enjoyment of our brands. Mindshapes' knowledge and experience in the 'Livebooks' arena will help us take one of our most popular children's titles, Wibbly Pig, beyond the e-books platform to offer fans a more immersive experience."

London, United Kingdom - Mindshapes and BBC Worldwide are teaming up to make Wibbly Pig, the popular children's book and cartoon series, available in Magic Town. Magic Town is an interactive world based on popular stories and well-known characters from children's books and television shows. Wibbly Pig joins a long list of Magic Town residents including Elmer, Little Princess, Winnie the Witch, Little Red Riding Hood, and Aliens Love Underpants.
Both the Magic Town app for iPad and its website are designed for children aged 2 to 6 years old to enjoy either independently or with an adult. There are more than 100 stories, or "Livebooks," to choose from. And since the app's June debut, children from 160 countries have read close to 300,000 Livebooks. Mindshapes created the Livebook format in close collaboration with child development experts including Professor Paul Harris at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. The goal is to use storytelling to stimulate children's imagination, reasoning, social skills and language development.
The Wibbly Pig series is based on the best-selling books by Mick Inkpen. Wibbly Pig lives in his own gentle little world. There is no limit to where his adventures might take children, whether it's up to a castle to find three giants, leading an orchestra of animals, flying on a balloon journey or taking a trip on a cloud! In Magic Town, Wibbly Pig invites children to follow him on his adventures along with his friends Big Pig, the Pig Twins, Scruffy Pig, Pig Ears, Tiny Pig, Aunt Larlie and Spotty Pig.
Christian Dorffer, Chief Commercial Officer, Mindshapes: "Partnering with BBC Worldwide is hugely exciting for us as we continue building Magic Town to become the interactive brand of choice for parents and preschoolers around the world. BBC Worldwide has a treasure trove of quality children's entertainment to share with us as Magic Town becomes the go-to iPad app and website for parents searching for high quality, educational brands for their children."
Jenny Fielding, Head of Digital Ventures, BBC Worldwide added: "BBC Worldwide is always looking to work with exciting new innovative platforms that enable us to further our audiences' enjoyment of our brands. Mindshapes' knowledge and experience in the 'Livebooks' arena will help us take one of our most popular children's titles, Wibbly Pig, beyond the e-books platform to offer fans a more immersive experience."

Convertible 1.4 for iOS - The Unit Conversion App Perfected - Published on 08/30/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Efecto today announces Convertible: Original Unit Converter 1.4 for iOS, a major update to their productivity app that offers a unique approach to converting between various measures of Length, Mass, Area, Currency, Energy, Volume, Temperature, Data, Time and Speed. Offering both standard and comparative measures such as inches to US Dollar Bills, the update completes the feature set by adding conversion sharing and many interface improvements.
Brisbane, Australia - Efecto today is pleased to announce Convertible: Original Unit Converter 1.4 for iOS, a major update to their productivity app that offers a unique approach to converting between various measures of Length, Mass, Area, Currency, Energy, Volume, Temperature, Data, Time and Speed. Offering both standard and comparative measures such as inches to US Dollar Bills, the update completes the feature set by adding conversion sharing and many interface improvements including help screens, in-app settings, cleaner graphics, improved scientific notation for very large or small numbers and a higher degree of decimal precision.
Convertible differentiates itself from other unit conversion apps with its simple to use interface and its extensive range of both standard and unusual conversion units. Convertible�s unique aspect comes from its ability to present arbitrary data in a real world context. For example:
* Comparing a building's floor area with parking spaces, tennis courts, or Manhattan city blocks
* Comparing large distances with lengths of Interstate 90, the Nile River, or the Earth to the Moon
* Measuring the weight of an object in comparison to AA Batteries, Apples, or even Jumbo Jets
"Many unit converters focus on providing a large range of conversion types (length, mass, volume, angle, currency, etc.) with often just a very limited set of units to choose for each type," stated Douglas Buchanan of Efecto Pty Ltd. "Convertible challenges this approach by offering the most common conversion types but with a large range of units for each type including non-standard measurements such as geographic measurements, weights of common objects, lengths of buildings, volumes of lakes, distances of planets, etc. By going beyond just using standard units of measure, Convertible becomes both a very versatile data measurement and visualization tool as well as providing a robust set of standard conversions."
Feature Highlights:
* Beautifully designed, simple, and intuitive interface with unique navigation, allowing all information to be visible and easily accessed on a single screen
* Categorized conversion units allowing quick access to specific conversion types
* Extremely large and small measurements handled with ease (e.g. how many protons to the mass of the Sun)
* Wide range of units available to convert to and from, everything from the atomic to the galactic
* 159 international currency conversions categorized by geographic region with up to date lookup of latest indexes
* Four internationally inspired color themes
* Conversion sharing via clipboard, email or Twitter
Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
* Requires iOS 4.3 or later
* Internet connection required for Currency Conversion
* 2.3 MB
Pricing and Availability:
Convertible: Original Unit Converter 1.4 is $0.99 (USD) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Productivity category. Review copies are available on request.

Aussie Developer goes Back2School - Published on 08/30/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Aussie Developer PKCLsoft today releases Tap Times Tables 3.0 an important Back2School update to its popular educational app for the iPad, iPhone and iPod touch. Tap Times Tables is a wonderful learning and practicing tool for kids in grades 4 to 6 that need some help with their Times Tables. With the latest release of Tap Times Tables, PKCLsoft has added a range of new features that are specifically targeted for the classroom and homeschooling.
Melbourne, Australia - With the growing presence of iPad devices in schools at all levels, the back to school campaigns that have traditionally been the purvey of stationary outlets are being complemented by online promotions by iPad and iPhone app developers.
These developers hail from all over the world. Knowing that the US Education market has a growing demand for iPads and the apps that enhance their educational value, developers are doing their best to provide apps that will benefit the kids that are about to return to school.
One developer, PKCLsoft, based in Melbourne, Australia, who released two elementary level math apps late in 2011 has risen to the challenge by providing new features in his app, "Tap Times Tables" that will make it truly useful in a classroom environment. PKCLsoft is an independent developer, who is a member of the growing community of family friendly app developers "Parents with Apps".
With the latest release of Tap Times Tables, PKCLsoft has added a range of new features that are specifically targeted for the classroom and homeschooling. These features include but are not limited to:
* Multi-user support
* Teachers can now create student rosters and import them into the app
* Teachers can also create lessons and import them into the app
* Lessons can be shared via email or web based hyper links with other teachers, or with students
* Students are now able to share the results of a lesson with their teacher via an easy to use email interface
These new features, and others that have been added to the app are a direct result of listening to teachers and reviewers of the app. In the near future, PKCLsoft will also be including these same features in their other educational title, Math Plus Minus.
Device Requirements:
Tap Times Tables is a universal app, and works equally well on iPad, iPhone or iPod touch. It requires iOS 4.2 or later.
Pricing and Availability:
Tap Times Tables 3.0 is normally priced at $2.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and is available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Education category.

Band Logos Quiz 1.0 for iOS: Compete to Name Popular and Puzzling Icons - Published on 08/30/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Otter Studios today introduces Band Logos Quiz 1.0 for iOS, their take on the popular guess-the-logo game. The app features 225 logos from worldwide bands, with 135 more available for purchase. The logos shown in the game are incomplete, and the player must guess the band from these partial images. A certain number of hints are available, giving the player bits of information about the band as clues. The player can earn more clues and coins for use when they are stumped by a difficult icon.
Worthing, United Kingdom - Otter Studios today is pleased to introduce Band Logos Quiz 1.0 for iOS, their take on the popular guess-the-logo game. The app features 225 logos from worldwide bands, with 135 more available for purchase. The logos shown in the game are incomplete, and the player must guess the band from these partial images. A certain number of hints are available, giving the player bits of information about the band as clues. The player can earn more clues and coins for use when they are stumped by a difficult icon, and after naming a certain number correctly, he or she can move on to the next level.
Feature Highlights:
* 225 worldwide band logos, with 135 in updates
* View partial logos and band trivia hints
* Features iconic and obscure logos
* Seven levels of gameplay
* Players share on Facebook for help from friends
* Earn coins for clues and answers
* Game stats available to track progress and compete with friends
Players will never tire of a game with 225 different logos to identify. Band Logos Quiz features all the most iconic and recognizable band logos from across the globe, as well as the more obscure icons for especially savvy players. The first level gives players an abundance of partially complete logos, so they can click on the logos they think they can identify and fill in the answers. After completing a certain number of logos in level one, level two becomes available to the player. More levels, and therefore more logos, are available to the player as he or she names more correctly. There are seven available levels in the original app.
Each of the logos has three hints that the player can ask for. The first offers a trivia fact on the biography of the band, the second is an especially cryptic hint, and the third gives the player a top track. While the player starts out with a certain number of available hints, they are not unlimited. Players must earn hints; every three correct answers or every ten minutes spent playing earns the player another hint. Players may also purchase hints in the shop.
Players may also earn or purchase coins to aid them in the game. Each correct answer is scored, and if the score is 750 or higher the player earns a coin. With twenty coins, a player can ask for the answer to an especially baffling logo.
Band Logos Quiz 1.0 exceeds other logo-identifying apps in its true game nature. The stimulating memory game allows players to view their game stats at all times and chart their progress. This way they can compete with friends using Game Center. The app also connects to Facebook with just one touch. Through this feature a stumped player can advertise an incomplete logo on the social network and garner help from friends.
"Test your band logo knowledge with this new and challenging game," declares Nick Sherman of Otter Studios. "Compete with friends to identify band logos from all around the world."
Device Requirements:
* Compatible with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad
* Universal app optimized for display on all iOS devices
* Requires iOS 4.3 or later
* 42.6 MB
Pricing and Availability:
Band Logos Quiz 1.0 is free, with in-app purchases available to remove adds, buy hints and coins, and see the complete logo after guessing a correct answer. The app is available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category.

Las Vegas, Nevada - Little Beetle, a developer of educational applications for kids, presents an educational application, Mix 2 Color 1.5 for iPad. This program will not only provide kids with exciting and useful experience of drawing their own pictures or coloring pre-made templates, but also teach them the principles of color mixing.
Mix 2 Color offers two game modes: Draw a picture and Color a picture. The first mode allows kid to draw any picture by moving his or her finger across the iPad screen. The app features three types of brushes, 12 different colors, 11 funny stamps and a sponge to remove unnecessary elements of the picture. Finished pictures can be saved and used as a desktop background or printed and hanged on the wall as decoration.
The second mode which is called Color a picture, offers a child to color 27 beautiful pictures, such as a ball, a duck, a flower or an umbrella. The pictures are large, easily recognizable and evoke a vivid emotional reaction and a desire to draw. To color all the pictures, kids should use 15 colors, but they can access only five: blue, red, yellow, white and black. Other colors can be produced by mixing the main ones.
"It's not that difficult to teach a kid how to draw, as it seems at first glance. You can find plenty ideas of drawing and coloring with children using vision friendly pictures. Kids can unleash their imagination and draw whatever comes to their minds," says Victor Khegay, CEO of Little Beetle.
