Seoul, Korea - Art ABC is a freshly launched educational app from Oh Factory. The app aims to help young children learn the alphabet, provides an introduction to phonetics, and exposes little learners to the fine arts in the process.

Success is Sweet for New Kids' Book - Published on 12/14/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

A Sweet Story 1.0 is the new original, beautifully illustrated book for kids ages 4-8 with partial proceeds going to support children's literacy. Follow the imaginary exploits of young Oliver Pumpernickel, who likes treats so much he wants to be their best friend. A Sweet Story is meant to be cherished like other children's classics but with the added fun of the digital world. Join Oliver sledding with a cookie, pogo jumping with a cake, and watching fireflies with a peppermint!

Vancouver, Canada - With the launch today of "A Sweet Story," Vancouver company Sweet Story Entertainment Inc. jumps into the world of digital literature. "A Sweet Story," a book for children aged 4-8, is available in the iTunes Store just in time for parents and grandparents seeking the perfect holiday gift.

Early reviews are looking good. Novelist, Globe and Mail columnist and parent Russell Smith had a sneak peak and had this to say: "A delicious and fast-moving little story about a brave boy and the food he hates. Best of all, it reads just like a real book."

"A Sweet Story" follows the imaginary exploits of young Oliver Pumpernickel, who likes treats so much he wants to be their best friend. Readers swipe and tap to help Oliver pogo-stick with a piece of cake, go sledding with a cookie, and swim with a pool party of jelly beans in his richly coloured inner world. But before Oliver can enjoy such sweet pursuits, he has to get past the childhood gatekeepers of dessert - that's right, the much-dreaded vegetables.

Sweet Story Entertainment Inc. is a partnership between veteran children's writer Jono Howard and creative studio Global Mechanic Media. Parents themselves, the book's creators were concerned with the glut of low-quality interactive books that distract from learning and parent-child bonding by focusing on aimless gaming rather than story. They set out to make a beautiful book to be cherished like other children's classics.

"Games and electronic versions of classic kids' books have been around for a few years and they're being embraced by kids and parents," said "A Sweet Story" author Jono Howard, "but we've seen these stories before. Original books with interactive elements created specifically for digital media are a fairly new idea. Early research shows that kids prefer digital versions to printed versions, but don't retain much of the story. We think we know why. So we made this one to encourage literacy and ignite kids' imaginations."

"Literacy is a cause close to our hearts, and we recognize that, while growing, access to digital books is still a privilege," says Executive Producer Tina Ouellette. "We saw an opportunity to do some good with this book, and are happy to announce that partial proceeds of "A Sweet Story" will go to ABC Life Literacy Canada and First Book in the US."

Device Requirements:
* Compatible with iPad
* Requires iOS 6.0 or later
* 131 MB

Pricing and Availability:
A Sweet Story 1.0 is $3.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Books category. For more information visit Sweet Story Entertainment online, or follow @ASweetStoryInc on Twitter.

Memory Jar app helps parents remember more of their kids' lives - Published on 12/14/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Remember the days when you could take a photo, flip it over, and scribble something on the back? The Lens Lab today announces Memory Jar 2.0 for iPhone and iPod touch. Memory Jar helps parents collect a rich and valuable set of memories about their children as they grow up. The app allows users to combine their family photos with other details including description, date and also children's ages and turns them into a card-based format ready for easy sharing and archiving.

Melbourne, Australia - The Lens Lab, producer of photography-focused mobile apps, today is thrilled to announce the launch of the Memory Jar app for iPhone and iPod touch. The app helps parents collect a rich and valuable set of memories about their children as they grow up. Memory Jar allows users to combine their family photos with other details including description, date and also children's ages and turns them into a card-based format ready for easy sharing and archiving.

"Life with kids is a continual stream of memorable moments and organising your photos just isn't enough," said Stuart Watson, Founder of The Lens Lab. "The Memory Jar app makes it easy to add details and context to your photos so you can create a rich archive of their lives for you and your kids. We think photos only tell part of the story of family life."

Create Treasured Memories:
With smartphones like the iPhone it is now easier than ever to take tons of great family photos and a number of solutions exist to share, store and manage many thousands of photographs. Standing out from these other solutions, the Memory Jar app enables parents to group one or more photos as an individual memory and add valuable details like when it was, what happened, and even why it means so much to them.

"As a parent of 3 kids myself I take a ton of photos with my iPhone but I worry about forgetting the little details that often make photos so special," said Watson. "Back in the day when you printed rolls of photos and stored them in albums you were able to flip the photos over and write little notes on the back to help you remember. Nowadays this sort of detail is being lost and so Memory Jar was built to bring that richness back to your family photos."

Primary Features - Users of the Memory Jar app get an array of features designed to make using it both easy and fun:
* Unlimited photos and detailed text can be added to each memory
* Memories are presented in card-like format for easy printing and sharing
* New 'flip' feature to view details of each memory on the back of photos
* Background on the home screen changes regularly to display a photo from a stored memory
* Collected memories can be browsed in either a list or tiled photo mode
* Any number of family members, including pets or grandparents, can be setup
* A single memory can be captured against one or more family members
* Easy sharing of memories via Twitter, Facebook or email
* Integration with Evernote for secure and automated archiving of memories

Device Requirements:
* iPhone 3GS, 4, 4S, iPhone 5, iPod touch (4/5 gen), and iPad
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later
* 8.4 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Memory Jar 2.0 is $0.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Photo & Video category from Friday December 14, 2012. No sign-up is required so users can start creating their first family memories immediately.

PhotoPhrase 1.2.1 - Add Beautiful Typography and Highlighting to Photos - Published on 12/14/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Today's PhotoPhrase 1.1.1 update is a direct response to customer feedback requesting more user-friendly tools and a fail-safe system to protect photos from deletion. These revisions make PhotoPhrase it more competitive than ever as a quality phototagging and picture typography app. Our new improvements are new highlighting, improved UI, larger image size saved and new fonts.

Dallas, Texas - Arcadia Apps released its revised version of PhotoPhrase 1.1.1 today. This popular picture-titling app was reworked to accommodate customer requests for additional and improved features. Although PhotoPhrase became an instant success when it entered the marketplace in October of this year because it provided customers classy, personalized photos, C.E.O. Jose Castro reports that some were dissuaded by the fact that changing to an alternate image deleted the original photo. Our goal is to make text on photos an easy and fun experience. That issue has been corrected, and additional features such as text highlighting, scroll-through color selection, and slide-bar font sizing make the app simpler to use.

Feature Highlights:
* New - Double click on any photo to add typography
* New - Scroll-through font color-select
* New - Highlight text (using color-select scroll-through feature)
* New - Two font style categories
* New - App warns against potential photo deletion and must be approved
* New - Font size is controlled by a simple slide bar
* Thumb-controlled text rotation
* Mirrored Special Effects
* Different size fonts can be assigned to each lines of text
* Instantly save to Camera Roll
* Instantly share with Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or Email

We have been featured in the Make Use of and AppAdvice blogs.

Founder Jose Castro expressed his appreciation to his team of designers, saying, "They devised simple resolutions for the awkwardness that previously existed within the program. Castro went on to say, "Our designers are professional and innovative. It is a real pleasure to work with them."

Mr. Castro also expressed pleasure about the revised look of their website. "We are bringing on new apps at an expanded rate now. Our websites are easier to navigate, and provide direct links to both the iphone and ipad purchasing portals." Arcadia Apps will be releasing support for the iPhone5 shortly, Mr. Castro noted. "We are working as quickly as we can to bring our full-service package to this platform, as well."

Device Requirements:
* iPhone 3GS/4/4S/5, iPod touch (3rd/4th/5th generation), and iPad
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later
* Universal app optimized for display on all iOS devices
* 6.3 MB
