IMMEDIATE RELEASE
JustKidsApps has announced that 'Heidi on the alp', the first part in the Heidi app series, is Free until September 21st to celebrate the recent update of the three Heidi apps as well as the release of the new 3 in 1 Heidi story collection. The Heidi apps are fun interactive storybooks true to the original by Johanna Spyri, with lots of educational and just-for-fun Bits and Bobs. The app includes many elements designed specifically to enchant, engage and educate young readers.
Freienbach, Switzerland - JustKidsApps is pleased to announce that 'Heidi on the alp' - the first part in the Heidi app series - is Free until September 21st to celebrate the recent update of the three Heidi apps as well as the release of the new 3 in 1 Heidi story collection. The Heidi apps are fun interactive storybooks true to the original by Johanna Spyri, with lots of educational and just-for-fun Bits and Bobs.
Last year, JustKidsApps brought Heidi to the iPad. This year they decided to completely update the apps - only the beautiful and unique illustrations by Diana Kizlauskas have remained the same. In addition, the Heidi Story Collection was created - an app that combines all 3 apps in one.
"I wanted the apps to be true to the story, good value for money, educational and, extremely important, fun for children," says Katrin Draemann Barothy, founder and owner at JustKidsApps. "I felt we delivered that last year but that we could do even better, so I decided we would update the apps from scratch."
Katrin asked Deanne Shoyer, a blogger and app reviewer, to help her write a new version of the abridged text. "My mother had given me her copy of Heidi when I was a child and I have loved it ever since, so I jumped at the chance to work on this project with Katrin," says Deanne, "we set out to create a version of the story that preserved the themes and characters we both loved but that would also make it interesting and appealing to new readers all over the globe."
The apps now contain the following:
* Two versions of the story. The first is told from Heidi's viewpoint and the text is highlighted when read to support the development of younger children's reading skills
* The second version is longer but also narrated which, together with the illustrations and other extras, is specifically designed to encourage reluctant older readers
* English, German and Swiss-German versions of both stories
* Characters voiced by professional actors
* Interactive elements on every page so children can hear what marmots, goats and birds of prey sound like, for example
* Quizzes so parents and teachers can check reading comprehension
* Information about where Heidi lived as well fun facts about Switzerland
Since the update the apps have been featured in the Swiss iTunes store where the Heidi Story Collection is currently on rank 1 in the iPad paid books category, and the feedback received worldwide has been excellent.
Requirements:
* Compatible with the iPad
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later
* 104 MB
Pricing and Availability:
All the Heidi apps are available worldwide exclusively through the Apple App Store in the Books category, at special introductory prices until September 21st, 2012: The Heidi Story Collection (3 apps in 1) is $2.99 (regularly $8.99). Heidi on the Alp (Part 1) is Free. Heidi in Frankfurt (Part 2) is $1.99 (regularly $4.99), and Heidi and Klara (Part 3) is $1.99 (regularly $4.99).

Starry Melody 2.0 - A Better Starry Sky in Your Hand - Published on 09/19/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Independent developer, Albert Wang, today announces Starry Melody 2.0, a major update to his popular iOS puzzle game. Combining music creation and puzzle solving, Starry Melody creates a beautiful starry sky and provides a relaxing yet fun gaming experience. In the 2.0 version, players can now link stars to form shining constellations while enjoying romantic piano tracks, and share the achievement using the new starry camera.
Hong Kong, Hong Kong - Independent developer, Albert Wang, today announces Starry Melody 2.0, a major update to his popular iOS puzzle game. Combining music creation and puzzle solving, Starry Melody creates a beautiful starry sky and provides a relaxing yet fun gaming experience. In the 2.0 version, players can now link stars to form shining constellations while enjoying romantic piano tracks, and share the achievement using the new starry camera.
In the game, players rescue stars in the sky by drawing and connecting them to form beautiful constellations, or by tapping and turning them into smooth melodies. Starry Melody 2.0 has 4 different game modes, including the new "Constellation" mode with 30 levels from easy to difficult for players to discover; the music-oriented "Infini-Music" mode in which melodies are automatically generated with each tap; the challenging "Arcade" mode with a bunch of special items that greatly boost the fun, and the simple to start "Classic" mode.
Constellation Mode:
Draw constellations in the sky by linking stars of the same color. Form designated patterns to reveal each constellation. Players gain star points to unlock new challenge levels and easily share discovered constellation with friends using the starry camera.
Infini-Music Mode:
Turn stars into music notes with each tap. Melodies are automatically generated according to the underlying pentatonic scale of the stars rescued. It's easy to create beautiful and unique melodies in this mode.
Arcade Mode:
Different from other similar types of puzzles, this mode is made challenging and fun by adding both free gravity control, anti-gravity effects, and obstacles, as well as a bunch of other fun-boosting special items. Besides saving as many stars as possible, it is also challenging to obtain large combo and high level completeness at the same time.
Classic Mode:
The Classic mode doesn't have complex rules, yet it remains the most relaxing and addictive game mode. Gaps between columns will close automatically so it's much easier to achieve high level completeness.
Feature Highlights:
* Relaxing game environment with smooth music, great for stress relief
* 4 different game modes
* New Constellation game mode with 30 puzzle levels
* Special items in Arcade mode
* User-generated piano melodies in Infini-Music mode

Turn stars into music notes with each tap. Melodies are automatically generated according to the underlying pentatonic scale of the stars rescued. It's easy to create beautiful and unique melodies in this mode.
Arcade Mode:
Different from other similar types of puzzles, this mode is made challenging and fun by adding both free gravity control, anti-gravity effects, and obstacles, as well as a bunch of other fun-boosting special items. Besides saving as many stars as possible, it is also challenging to obtain large combo and high level completeness at the same time.
Classic Mode:
The Classic mode doesn't have complex rules, yet it remains the most relaxing and addictive game mode. Gaps between columns will close automatically so it's much easier to achieve high level completeness.
Feature Highlights:
* Relaxing game environment with smooth music, great for stress relief
* 4 different game modes
* New Constellation game mode with 30 puzzle levels
* Special items in Arcade mode
* User-generated piano melodies in Infini-Music mode
* Game center support with online leader boards and achievements

IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Four years after releasing its first application, and being the first Belgian company on the App Store, Creaceed hits a major milestone: 250,000 users on the App Store of its applications Vocalia, Prizmo, Kuboku and Movie Stiller. This celebration is the right time for a sale: Prizmo for iPhone, the All-in-One Mobile Scanning and OCR Solution, is available at 50 percent off for a few days.
Mons, Belgium - Creaceed released its first iOS application, Vocalia, on September 27th 2008, and was the very first Belgian company on the App Store. In the next few weeks and months, Vocalia reached the Top 10 Charts of Paid Applications in many countries. Later came Creaceed's other equally successful iOS applications, Prizmo, Kuboku and Movie Stiller.
To celebrate the 250,000 users milestone, Prizmo for iPhone, the All-in-One Mobile Scanning and OCR Solution by Creaceed, is offered at a special lowered price for a few days: $4.99 USD (regular price is $9.99). It is a bargain for an application including so many useful features.

Another feature makes Prizmo a unique utility: combining Optical Character Recognition and Text-to-Speech Technologies. Creaceed partnered with world-leading specialists: ExperExchange, Inc. for highly accurate OCR, and with Acapela Group S.A. for natural sounding TTS.
Prizmo for iPhone is available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Business category. The upgrade to the upcoming version 2 will be free, and promises to be a big step forward.

How To Talk About Doomsday Predictions Based On Maya Prophecy - Published on 09/19/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Dr. Mark Van Stone, the author of the new book for the iPad, 2012: Science & Prophecy of the Ancient Maya, offers information helpful for talking to children who have heard things on TV or read junk science on the Internet about the 2012 Meme and Maya predictions. Dr. Van Stone says lots of speculative predictions have been cast upon the Maya, but they do not include current world events, nor facts.
Dallas, Texas - With 91 days remaining before the oft predicted "end of the world" based on the anticipated "turning over" of the Maya calendar, Southwestern College Professor Dr. Mark Van Stone Wednesday offered suggestions and resources for parents who have children and teens asking questions about the growing tensions in the world based on what they have seen or heard about the Maya.
Dr. Van Stone's new digital book for the iPad, 2012: Science & Prophecy of the Ancient Maya, provides colorful, scientific and interactive answers about the Maya for kids of all ages, and it is a resource parents can rely on when children ask, "Is the world really coming to an end on Dec. 21, 2012 based on Maya predictions?"
Dr. Van Stone, recognized as one of only four scholars in the world to write a scholarly book on the Maya and their predictions for 2012, says knowledge of the ancient Mesoamerican civilization is limited, "but we know enough to say confidently they didn't predict an end of the world in December of this year."
He believes parents, grandparents and teachers have an obligation to assure youngsters that doomsday predictions have long been part of our culture, and as yet, none of them have come true. He also emphasizes that there are no written clues that were left by the Maya of an impending, immediate doom in the year 2012. In fact, according to his exhaustive work, the Maya actually predicted a long and stable future to at least 4772 AD - 2,700 years from now.
"While archaeologists have dug up 1 percent of the Maya cities ... there's 99 percent of the information that's still there available for us to find, and nothing has been found that spells the end for anyone in the next 90 or so days," Dr. Van Stone says.
For this reason, Dr. Van Stone says there are many reasons to approach popular prophecies of the Maya critically. He also believes that many current world events, including the most recent protests in the Muslim world and last week's eruption of the volcano in Guatemala are not evidence of fulfillment of Maya prophecy. Rather, these are merely coincidences - the kinds of events that will continue to happen in the 91 days remaining before the "end" of the Maya calendar.
"While junk scientists and new agers have made so many wild predictions about Dec. 21, 2012, that some of them are bound to happen, especially if these 'predictions' are non-specific, there is not a shred of evidence to support them," Van Stone said. "Lots of potentially tragic events are going to happen between now and the end of December. Lots have happened every year and will continue to happen. As for that volcano right smack in the middle of Maya country: its eruption is indeed impressive. But there is a reason they call it 'Volcano of Fire.' It is always smoking and sputtering, and it often erupts violently. We don't have a single Maya inscription about volcanoes. We don't even have the glyphs for the words volcano, eruption or lava, because they apparently never mentioned them," Dr. Van Stone said.
Dr. Van Stone suggests parents with a child who is seeking answers to what they have seen on TV or read on the Internet be open and straightforward with them.
"This is a great teachable moment to talk about the fantastic history of the Maya and there are many scientific resources available, like my book for the iPad, that can help open a new world of learning for children of all ages," Dr. Van Stone said. "My colleagues and I are celebrating this attention for the Maya because we know once children begin to study them, they only will want to learn more. We very well may have a great new number of Maya scholars in the next decade because of the wild predictions that have been made about this year."
In his book, now available on the iBookstore in a format exclusive to the iPad, Dr. Van Stone addresses all the actual Maya predictions made for Dec. 21. It can be used to help educate the public as more, and more shrill, "prophecies" come out of the woodwork as we approach the 5,125-year "end" of the Maya calendar-cycle.
This 179-page book has 3-D animations, interactive maps and drawings, beautiful photographs, and two hours of video illustrations. It is the best tool to counter the exponentially-expanding fantasies of pseudo-scientists, dreamers, hallucinators and snake-oil salesmen looking to capitalize on the "end" of the Maya Calendar on Dec. 21 or 23, 2012. Dr. Van Stone points out that more scholars correlate the 13.0.0.0.0 "end of the Bak'tun" in the Maya Long Count Calendar to Dec. 23 or 24 than to the 21st.
With degrees in physics and art history, Dr. Van Stone is an expert calligrapher, netsuke-carver, artist, and scholar of ancient writing.
"This book expands the way an individual can learn on their own, at their own pace and to a level not previously possible," said Dr. Van Stone. "I am proud and delighted to be part of a team that has set a high standard for this new kind of educational tool."
Dr. Van Stone also is offering classroom teachers wanting to do guest video conferences about the Maya to schedule a time when he can join their students.
This fascinating book discusses the 2012 "meme," Maya culture, the workings of their calendar, mathematics, astronomy, world-view, creativity and their hieroglyphs. A section on deciphering their hieroglyphs introduces the reader to how we know what we know about the writings of this ancient and noble culture.

iBank 4.6 Delivers New And Improved Features For Better Budgeting - Published on 09/19/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
IGG Software today announced the release iBank 4.6, the market-leading personal finance application for Mac. This new version of iBank delivers a brand new set of tools for managing budgets, support for Retina Display Macs, and many other fixes and enhancements. The new report view gives users a fast, easy way to visualize and compare their budgets with actual spending totals. Users have the ability to view and compare different periods in the main budget view window.
Putney, Vermont - IGG Software today announced the release iBank 4.6, the market-leading personal finance application for Mac. This new version of iBank delivers a brand new set of tools for managing budgets, support for Retina Display Macs, and many other fixes and enhancements.
"This is the update many of iBank's users were asking for," says IGG president Ian Gillespie. "With so much economic uncertainty, families especially want to see where their money is going, and these new tools provide better insight into spending habits, ways to save, and day-to-day financial management. For a lot of people, this is the value proposition in iBank."
iBank 4.6's budgeting enhancements include the following:
* Budget vs. Actual report view. Among the most popular feature requests for iBank 4, this new report view gives users a fast, easy way to visualize and compare their budgets with actual spending totals. The report view can be customized for specific time periods, and users can drill down by category to see transactions that make up their expenditures.
* Improved budget view. Now users have the ability to view and compare different periods (from the past, or future projections) in the main budget view window, to better see at a glance how spending has changed over time or how closely they are following their own budget goals.
* Faster performance and more. Besides significant speed improvements within budget functions, users can now edit the accounts used for a given budget, among other changes. Related fixes include correct updating to Actual Income and Actual Expense totals after changes to period or category.
iBank 4.6 also adds support for Apple's new Retina Display. Rounding out the update are additional fixes and improvements to performance, exports, bank downloads, reports, Smart Accounts and more. iBank 4.6 is free to current users of iBank 4, and is available immediately via the IGG website. It has been submitted to the Mac App Store for approval.
IGG offers unlimited 30-day free trial downloads of iBank, free support (including Live Chat) and a 90-day unconditional guarantee on direct purchases from the IGG web store. The regular retail price of iBank 4 is $59.99 (USD); licensed users of iBank 3 can upgrade for $29.99. iBank 4.6 requires Mac OS X 10.6 or higher. The latest version can be downloaded at the IGG website, where there is also access to a library of iBank 4 video tutorials.
