Developer of Life Inventory Apps Reveals Apple Secret About Hard Reset - Published on 11/20/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Indie developer James Hollender, creator of the Life Inventory apps reveals one of Apple's best kept secrets, which also happens to be something members of their Genius Bar frequently recommend to visitors, i.e., the "Hard Reset", which will fix many problems you might be experiencing on any iOS device. Sometime when users report problems with an app, he tells them what Apple recommended and further it should be done weekly. Users find it perplexing the procedure isn't more advertised.

Revere, Massachusetts - Indie developer James Hollender, creator of the Life Inventory apps reveals one of Apple's best kept secrets, which also happens to be something members of their Genius Bar frequently recommend to visitors, i.e., the "Hard Reset", which will fix many problems you might be experiencing on any iOS device. Sometime when users report problems with an app, he tells them what Apple recommended and further it should be done weekly. Users find it perplexing the procedure isn't more advertised.

So what's the secret? Indie developer James Hollender, creator of the Life Inventory apps reveals one of Apple's best kept secrets, which also happens to be something members of their Genius Bar frequently recommend to visitors, i.e., the "Hard Reset", which will fix many problems you might be experiencing on any iOS device. Sometime when users report problems with an app, he tells them what Apple recommended and further it should be done weekly. Users find it perplexing the procedure isn't more advertised.

The "Hard Reset" procedure is fairly easy to accomplish, and in many instances you will discover your iOS device is functioning much faster than it previously was. Here we go:

1. Open up the Springboard by double tapping the Home button.
2. Press and hold any icon in the Springboard until they are all wiggling and have a red circled minus in the upper left corner.
3. Press the circled red minus for each icon in the Springboard ... (basically this exits each app that is running ... most won't be running since the Springboard contains a list of last accessed apps and Apple doesn't distinguish which ones are will running or have been killed off.
4. Once the Springboard is cleared of all icons, tap above the Springoard to close it.
5. Press and hold both Home and Power buttons until the screen goes blank or you are asked to swipe to power off the device (this depends on the version of iOS you are running).
6. Wait until the screen goes blank for at least 10-15 seconds
7. Power the iOS device back on.

All developers would like to think their programs are perfect and don't have any memory issues, but the fact is frequently there are situations which occur that were never anticipated, which might cause a memory leak. Once the Hard Reset is done, you are starting fresh and should experience better device performance.

And now a little information about one of the developer's best secrets, his Life Inventory apps:

Indie developer James Hollender's Life Inventory apps can help change the quality of life. The iPad version (named #3 top iOS App) and the iPhone version are Lifestyle apps that guide users in creating their own Life Inventory, which can provide greater self-understanding of personality, strengths and weaknesses leading to a better quality of life. These apps allow the user to learn more about themselves than ever thought possible and at only a small fraction the cost of a single visit to a therapist.

The process of completing a Life Inventory does not directly address anyone's specific problems or addictions, but rather helps the user examine in detail events that have transpired in their life. The Life Inventory app gently assists the user in probing into not only what happened, but also why it happened. The questions asked help the user delve into areas often never considered before, like:

* What did I want?
* Why did I want it?
* What am I not admitting?
* What lie did I tell myself?
* What did I leave out or not say?
* What lie did I tell others?
* Have I ever done the same thing?
* Was it any of my business?
* Were my expectations reasonable?
* What was the real truth?
* What was I not seeing?
* Did I fail to see the facts of the situation?
* What actions did I take to get what I wanted?
* What actions did I omit to get what I wanted?

Life Inventory for iPad guides the user through six different steps, each with its own activity grouping, for making a Life Inventory in writing:

* Build Lists
* Causes and Effects
* My Part
* Fears Analysis
* Fear Questions
* Sex Relations

Throughout the process, users are encouraged to write out their Inventory, be completely honest about themselves and take advantage of encouragement and support.

The Inventory begins by making one simple list, which defines four fixed Categories in which to file away what are broadly categorized as Incidents:

* People
* Institutions and Organizations
* Principles, Ideals and Beliefs
* Sources of Anxiety and Excitement

Each of the four Categories will contain hierarchical sub-categories. From there, users outline Entities and then individual Incidents.

Step-by-step, users complete the Causes and Effects of each Incident. Next, users determine the part they played in each Incident listed. It is not unusual to create hundreds of Incident forms, each devoted to a single incident. The app includes the ability to create and save all written lists and forms with password protection. Having completed all their Incident forms, users can refer to these forms to help list all their Fears. The app includes the following eight pre-defined fears, to which the user is free to add:

* Other people's opinions
* Not getting what I want
* Not having control of the situation
* Financial insecurity
* Abandonment
* Physical harm
* Failure
* Success

The fifth step is examining each Fear category and answering the following key questions:

* Why did I have this fear?
* When did I first notice this fear in my life?
* How did I hold on to this fear?
* What did this fear make me do?
* What chain of circumstances did this fear set in motion in my life?
* How did I react to this fear?
* What decision did this fear cause me to make?
* How did self-reliance fail me?
* What should I have done instead?

And the sixth and final step is examining Sex Relations, where users answer all the following questions regarding each of their sexual relationships:

* How was I selfish?
* Where was I dishonest?
* Where was I inconsiderate?
* Who was hurt in this situation?
* Did I arouse jealousy, suspicion, or bitterness?
* Where was I at fault?
* What should I have done instead?
* What will I do in the future?
* Did I pray or have spiritual conversations with him/her?
* Did I pray for him/her?
* Did I enjoy his/her company?
* Did we bring each other closer to God?

"The process of completing a Life Inventory doesn't directly address anyone's specific problems or addictions, but rather helps the user examine in detail events that have transpired in their life," stated indie developer James Hollender. "The Life Inventory for iPad app gently assists the user in probing into not only what happened, but also why it happened."

James Hollender is also the author of a suite of Nutrient apps based on the USDA National Nutrient Database:
* iCarbs (Carbohydrates)
* iCholesterol (Dietary Cholesterol)
* iFiber
* iKals (Calories)
* iProteins
* iSatFat (Saturated Fat)
* iSodium (Vitamins K1, K1D & K2)
* iSugars
* Vitamin K

Device Requirements:
* "Life Inventory" - iPhone and iPod touch
* "Life Inventory for iPad" - iPad only
* Requires iOS 4.3 or later

Pricing and Availability:
Life Inventory and Life Inventory for iPad 2.6 are $9.99 (USD) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Lifestyle category. A Lite version of the app is $1.99, a supplement that provides a mock Moral Inventory from which the user can learn by example and experimentation. A similar version is also available for the iPhone and iPod touch. Review copies are available on request.

JustKidsApps releases Advent calendar 2012 LITE - Published on 11/20/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Swiss-based JustKidsApps has released a lite version of its nostalgic Advent calendar for iPad with illustrations by Swiss illustrator Viviane Dommann. The lite version contains the first four windows of the full version, which can be obtained via In-App-Purchase. With Christmas short stories, poems, little games, recipes and ideas for handicraft behind each window, the Advent calendar has something in store for everyone in the family to count down the days until Christmas.

Freienbach, Switzerland - JustKidsApps today is pleased to announce the release of a free LITE version of its recently updated nostalgic Advent calendar 2012, beautifully illustrated by Viviane Dommann. The LITE version contains the first four windows of the full version, the remaining 20 windows can be obtained via In-App-Purchase.

Do you remember how excited you felt each morning in December, counting down the days until Christmas? The thrill from being allowed to eat the chocolate from your advent calendar before breakfast? Have you watched your children argue over who gets to open today's window or smiled at the delight on their faces as they uncover a little keepsake?

Starting the days in December by opening the door on an Advent Calendar is a fun tradition enjoyed by many, but the best thing about Christmas is that it's about so much more than 'things'.

"Our Advent Calendar app is a lovely way to reinforce something that we believe is really important at Christmas-time: sharing as a family", says Katrin Draemann Barothy, founder and owner at JustKidsApps. "Each evening, sit down together with our app and see what our calendar has in store for you to share together."

With over 100 pages, the windows have something behind them for everyone:
* Christmas-related short stories and poems by the Brothers Grimm, Hans Christian Andersen, O. Henry, M. A. Haley, E. T. A. Hoffmann, Clement Clarke Moore and others
* 3 recipes
* Spot the difference and other little games
* Instructions on how to make a gift box

All beautifully and whimsically illustrated by Viviane Dommann. Zoom in and explore together all the pictures and discover:
* Christmas figures like Santa Claus and The Nutcracker sharing the pages with characters from well-known European folk tales.
* Interactive features such as Pinocchio's nose - do you know where it goes? That his nose in fact grows?!
* Hidden sounds - Christmas tunes, animal noises, musical instruments and more, oh my!

"And unlike 'real' Advent Calendars, your children can't 'cheat' and open the windows ahead of time!", says Katrin. "Starting on December 1st, a window will open each day until Christmas and cannot be opened beforehand - unless this feature is deactivated in iPad settings."

Regardless of where you live, with JustKidsApps' Advent calendar 2012 you can enjoy together an advent season full of snow, baking, stories, games, music and most importantly, family.

Device Requirements:
* Compatible with iPad
* LITE version requires iOS 6.0 or later
* 53.6 MB
* Full version requires iOS 5.0 or later
* 49.9 MB

Pricing and Availability:
The Advent calendar 2012 is $3.99 US (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Entertainment category. Advent calendar 2012 LITE (v1.0.1) - get in the mood for Advent time is free with $3.99 IAP to upgrade to the full version.
