Wanderful Introduces Berenstain Bears Get In a Fight App for iOS - Published on 11/19/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Wanderful Interactive Storybooks, a leader in the development of interactive storybook apps designed for today's digital kids, has introduced the children's classic, Get In A Fight, Berenstain Bears 1.0, for the holiday season. The Stan and Jan Berenstain story is now available in English and Spanish for reading fun and story play on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. Originally published as Living Books, Get In A Fight has been updated with new features for mobile devices.

San Francisco, California - Wanderful Interactive Storybooks, a leader in the development of interactive storybook apps designed for today's digital kids, has introduced the children's classic "The Berenstain Bears Get In A Fight" for the holiday season. Originally published as Living Books, "Get In A Fight" has been updated with new features and is the fifth storybook app in the new Wanderful series.

Telling the story of a small argument that escalates to the point where neither Brother Bear nor Sister Bear can remember what they were fighting about, "The Berenstain Bears Get In A Fight" comes to life on every page as it allows readers to fully interact with all of the characters and words for hours of interactive fun. This imaginative reading experience is full surprises on every page inviting kids to read and play along with Brother Bear and Sister Bear as Mama Bear helps them settle their differences.

The storybook comes with both English and Spanish for one price; users can toggle between languages dynamically from any page, a powerful feature unlike anything found in other interactive storybooks. The App offers an easy upgrade to unlock the story in Brazilian Portuguese as well. As with all Wanderful interactive storybooks, "The Berenstain Bears Get In A Fight" includes the READ TO ME mode, allowing children to enjoy the story experience by itself.

"We are really proud of how well this great story experience translates to the iOS" said Wanderful Founder and CEO Mickey W. Mantle. "Each page is loaded with interactive elements that reinforce the story, plus some of the most extensive animated scenes of any Wanderful title yet. It's full of surprises, humor and an invitation to discover because everything inside the storybook is alive."

A short but delightful video about the authors is also included, which gives insight into how the Berenstains wrote their books.

Wanderful apps are highly intuitive and encourage children to explore each storybook page deeply for all its hidden content. With extended animation and hundreds of interactive antics, the apps provide a richer interactive experience on one page than many other story apps offer in a whole book.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
* Requires iOS 4.0 or later
* Universal app optimized for display on all iOS devices
* 171 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Get In A Fight, Berenstain Bears 1.0 is $4.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Books category. A premium upgrade is available - $2.99 via In-App Purchase - which includes a 56 page Classroom Activities Guide and the addition of Portuguese language content. For those who don't require the Classroom Activities Guide, Portuguese can be added for a $1.99 via In-App Purchase.

Originally introduced in 1992 by Broderbund Software, Living Books were the industry's first highly interactive storybooks and embraced by educators, praised by parents and cherished by children. Twenty years later Mickey W. Mantle, the former Broderbund CTO who oversaw the technology development for the original interactive storybooks founded Wanderful and assembled key members of the original team, including Living Books creator Mark Schlichting, to re-invent the wildly popular interactive storybooks. The team has built an entirely new multi-platform engine to drive the story experience on the latest tablets, phones and computers, resulting in interactive storybook apps designed for today's generation of digital kids.

Movie App Extends Global Reach With International Movie Release Dates - Published on 11/19/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Flickdirect Inc. announces an update to its movie centric iPhone and iPad app, Movie Clock, which now supports international movie release dates. Move Clocks central feature has always been its unique ever running countdown to movies coming soon to theaters and home media. Now a global audience can enjoy the singular countdown experience as well as tap into the social movie going experience that Movie Clock offers.

Fort Lauderdale, Florida - Flickdirect Inc. is proud to announce that its critically acclaimed movie centric iPhone and iPad app, Movie Clock, now supports international movie release dates. Move Clocks central feature has always been its unique ever running countdown to movies coming soon to theaters and home media. Now with the latest release, a global audience can enjoy the singular countdown experience as well as tap into the social movie going experience that Movie Clock offers.

The regions included in the latest release include: United States, United Kingdom, Australia, Germany, Italy, France, and Japan.

The app is the first to allow simple social interaction over various networks including Facebook and twitter with a focus on upcoming movies. A single tap allows users to 'check-in' to upcoming films and interact with friends and followers around the globe.

Over 2000 fans (from 74 countries) of the film 'The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2' have flocked to the app by way of, and for, its unique social features. By checking in with each other, tweeting about the film, and counting down with friends, fans have been able to connect in new, revolutionary ways.

Movie Clock's central feature is its unique ever-running countdown clock for individual movies coming soon to theaters. Users can easily search the extensive movie database for their favorite upcoming movie and set an alert to remind them on the film's day of release. Movie Clock already contains release dates all the way up to 2016.

"We wanted the singular countdown experience to extend beyond the app." Nathan Rose, CEO of FlickDirect said. "Allowing your network to tap into the movies you are following really makes the anticipation for that new release much more fun and exciting."

By allowing users to check-in to movies they are watching, they will be able to see how many others around the world are counting down with them and connect with new friends and followers who share the enthusiasm for their favorite films.

Other extended features of Movie Clock include the ability to find show times for local theaters based on your GPS coordinates, in-app ticket purchasing and streaming movie trailers.

Eric English, President of FlickDirect Inc. and lead developer, has been surprised by the international appeal of Movie Clock despite the app previously focusing on North American release dates. "I've had apps I've developed rank high in other countries but nothing as exciting as this. It really speaks to the universal language of film and love of sharing."

"Bringing all of these great movie focused features into one app was the vision when we began [the development process]" added English "With this new version and international release dates we finally got it all together in one streamlined package you can enjoy with friends around the world."

Previous versions of Movie Clock were named one of the Top 9 Movie Apps of 2011 by NextMovie online and have been featured in iTunes Whats Hot, Entertainment category.

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Athena eSolutions is proud to announce the updated RebounDate 1.3 for iOS. RebounDate is the first iPhone dating app which helps users find rebounds after they have gone through a breakup. This dating app aims to take out the embarrassment and awkwardness out of rebound dating by enabling people find others who are willing to be a rebound. App users can view the detailed profile of other users and, if they like the profile, send a predefined message to show interest.

Kolkata, India - Athena eSolutions is proud to announce the updated RebounDate 1.3 for iOS. RebounDate is the first iPhone dating app which helps users find rebounds after they have gone through a breakup. This dating app aims to take out the embarrassment and awkwardness out of rebound dating by enabling people find others who are willing to be a rebound. App users can view the detailed profile of other users and, if they like the profile, send a predefined message to show interest.

There are a lot of dating apps out there but none take into account what happens emotionally when a person goes through a breakup. After a breakup, most people believe they are over their ex's and go on a date, only to realize later that they are on the rebound. This leads to embarrassment and awkwardness for everyone involved. RebounDate aims to solve this by connecting people who have gone through a breakup with others who are ready to be a rebound.

When users signup, they have to specify whether they are looking for a rebound, or are willing to be a rebound, or are looking for both. Once they signup, they are shown a list of people specific to their country. They can then view the detailed profile of these people and send them a predefined message if they like the profile. Once the other person responds, the messaging section opens up allowing full communication between the two. Advanced search facility, rating users, filtering data by country, verifying account email addresses for more visibility, push notifications, adjusting notification settings etc. are just some of the other features present in this app.

Feature Highlights:
* 100% real profiles with real images
* High activity of users
* Enhanced search: You can search for people in your city
* SPAM protection: Once someone messages you, you will need to respond before they can message you again. If you want, you can ignore their request. No one can spam you
* Easy to use
* Push notifications: Receive notifications whenever someone shows interest in your profile by messaging you

Currently, RebounDate is available for free on the App store and a version for Android is under development. The next iPhone version will have image albums, chat and paid gifts.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later
* 2.7 MB

Pricing and Availability:
RebounDate 1.3 is free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Social Networking category.
