Wallet Camera-Talking Pictures: Photo Filters, Frames, Captions + Voice - Published on 04/17/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Power App today introduces Wallet Camera 1.0 - Talking Pictures, its advanced photo app that lets users customize their photos with a suite of filters, tools, effects, frames, captions, and audio. Featuring built-in Instagram, flickr, Facebook, Twitter, and email connectivity, the app allows users to make their photos truly stand out from among the more than 100 million photos emailed and posted daily. Wallet Camera works with new photos shot from within the app or images saved in Photos.

Pfaeffikon, Switzerland - Power App today is pleased to introduce Wallet Camera 1.0 - Talking Pictures, its advanced photo app that lets users customize their photos with a suite of filters, tools, effects, frames, captions, and audio recording. Featuring built-in Instagram, flickr, Facebook, Twitter, and email connectivity, the app allows users to make their photos truly stand out from among the more than 100 million photos emailed and posted daily. Wallet Camera works with new photos shot from within the app or images saved in Photos.

Feature Highlights:
* Amazing filters
* Built-in voice recorder
* Single and multiple frames
* Cropping/cutting/stretching tools
* Sketching & doodle tools
* Full suite of photo-editing tools
* Library of multiple background images
* Caption & text generator tools
* Library of pre-composed text captions
* Built-in Instagram, flickr, Facebook, Twitter, and email connectivity
* Save or share a voice-enhanced photo as an MPEG 4

At launch in portrait orientation, Wallet Camera offers two modes of opening a photo to edit: Camera or Library. Camera mode activates the front- or rear-facing camera of the iDevice, allowing users to snap a live photo. After previewing their snapshot, they can Retake or Use the picture. Library mode lets the photographer browse through the Photos folder containing the Photo Library and Camera Rolls. Once a photo has been selected, via Camera or Library modes, it opens fullscreen in the app's editing window. From a retractable tab bar at the bottom, users can access all the app's capabilities.

The tab bar contains five buttons: Tools, Frames, Doodle, Effects, and Text. Touching the Tools button opens a horizontally scrolling selection of actions above the tab bar: Cut, Audio, Rotate, Crop, Skew, Splice, Swirl, Shear, Implode, Mirror, Ripple, and Spread. Cut, Crop, and Rotate are the most basic editing tools, making it easy to eliminate unwanted parts of the picture and orient it for best viewing. The remaining visual tools give users an opportunity to stylize their photos with continuously variable controls. Particularly noteworthy are the Splice and Spread tools, which provide image-processing options rarely seen on mobile devices.

Touching the Audio button brings up the Record screen, displaying the photo fullscreen with red Record and Play buttons beneath. Tapping Record activates the iDevice's built-in mic, allowing users to include a voice message with their photo (music playing aloud will also be captured by the microphone). This feature combines the personalization of the sender's voice greeting with the simplicity of a photo in a manageable file size that can be easily shared.

The Frames button in the bottom tab bar lets the user choose from some very imaginative framing effects, including those designed to contain single or multiple photos. For example, the photo is a canvas displayed in a museum or a Polaroid on top of an open passport. Also included is a library of travel photos, which can be used as photo backgrounds.

The Doodle feature lets creative photo editors draw on top of their photos in the thickness and color of their choice. Effects accesses 10 different photo effects, some of which will be familiar to users of Instagram. These effects may be applied only to the photo or to the photo/frame/background, and Wallet Camera provides continuously variable controls for each effect that lets users achieve exactly the desired result.

Finally, the Text feature makes it easy to superimpose captions or labels. The ergonomic control panel enables selection of 7 different fonts, 10 different colors, and type sizes between 10 and 100 points. The Captions Library can be opened from the control panel, allowing selection from dozens of pre-composed captions in various categories, like Birthday, Inspirational, Get Well, and Humorous.

"The ability to edit and modify pictures and make them stand out from the crowd has become more and more important in these times, when hundreds of millions of people use their mobile devices to connect to social and photo sharing networks," stated Christian Schaffner, CEO of Power App AG. "Wallet Camera has been especially designed to offer great results plus ease of use."

San Antonio, Texas - Rectangle LLC today is excited to announce the launch of its iOS app, Rectangle. Rectangle is a free and easy-to-use iPhone app that allows you to have photos on your iPhone printed and delivered right to your door!

The idea for Rectangle was conceived when co-founder Jim Drought III realized that people were not fully enjoying the stunning photos their iPhones could take. He says, "Too often, the photos we take wind up out-of-sight, out-of-mind. Don't let your digital photos be forgotten; take advantage of your iPhone's ever-improving camera and display just how good your photos can look!"

Rectangle allows you to have your iPhone photos printed at sizes not previously possible: from 9"x12" all the way to poster-sized 24"x32". Because of the increasing quality of iPhone cameras, even large prints of the photos look excellent!

Rectangle is also excited to offer Pictoblocks(TM). Pictoblocks(TM) are 1/2" thick clear acrylic blocks on which we face-mount your photo to the back. The result makes the photo "pop" and creates a frameless display, perfect for desks, credenzas, etc. The 3-dimentional nature of the Pictoblock creates a nice effect wherein the photo image is reflected back in the visible sides of the block. Rectangle offers 4.5"x6", 6"x8" rectangular sizes for Pictoblocks(TM) in addition to 5"x5", 6"x6", and 7"x7" square sizes perfect for Instagram pictures.

To order either product, you simply select photos from your photo library, or take one with your camera, choose product and size, and select a destination to have the photo delivered: friends, family, or yourself. In just a few days, your selected products will be home delivered!

Rectangle guarantees quality. Our prints are made by state-of-the-art equipment using archival-quality colorfast inks on premium, 240gsm glossy photo paper. We offer a 100% satisfaction money-back guarantee.

Rectangle was conceived by photographer and photo lab owner Jim Drought III who recognized two simple truths: 1) Far too many photos we take wind up out-of-sight buried deep in our phones (or computers), and 2) Today�s phones are sporting better-than-ever high-resolution cameras, allowing print sizes not previously possible. From this, the idea was hatched to create an app that allows users to easily display their photos, the way they were intended. In July 2012, teamed with 16 year-old iOS programming phenom Canzhi Ye, the two set-off to create an app that was as easy to use as it was unique in its offerings. In April 2013, Rectangle LLC released its iOS app Rectangle. It plans to release an Android version in the future. Copyright (C) 2013 Rectangle LLC. All Rights Reserved.

Maps 3D Brings the Third Dimension to the iPhone - Published on 04/17/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

movingworld announces Maps 3D v.3.1 for iOS. Whether at home or abroad, on holiday or a business trip, Maps 3D lets users set off in new directions wherever they are in the world, without losing their way. Users just download the free maps they need at home or while traveling. As the maps are displayed in 3D, it makes it easier for users to orient themselves even in unfamiliar surroundings as it�s really easy to pick out landmarks such as mountains, hills and bodies of water.

Gleisweiler, Germany - movingworld announces Maps 3D v.3.1 for iOS. You can rely on Maps 3D wherever you are � but the world�s first offline 3D map with route planner is really fun when the terrain is challenging and you�re off the beaten track.

�Whether you�re trail running in California, mountain biking in Maine or snowboarding in Colorado � our Maps 3D iPhone app is your ideal companion for extended trips through jaw-dropping scenery�, says Moritz Gaupp, app developer and founder of the company movingworld. �Wherever you are in the world, our app shows you the exact altitude live for any location and any waypoint on a clear 3D map�, explains Moritz. �This is all possible as we were the first company ever to combine NASA elevation scans of the Earth with the best outdoor maps: USGS Topographic Maps and OpenStreetMap (OSM).�

Thanks to this, Maps 3D users don�t just know where they are at any given time, they also know what upcoming challenges they�re going to face along the rest of their route. What�s more, as the maps are displayed in 3D, it makes it easier for users to orient themselves even in unfamiliar surroundings as it�s really easy to pick out landmarks such as mountains, hills and bodies of water.

Maps 3D lets you plan your route in advance by specifically navigating to coordinates, setting waypoints on the map or selecting points of interest (POI) for the starting point and final destination. The app calculates online the best route in each case for drivers, cyclists or walkers, and also displays the elevation profile for the particular route. What�s more, you can of course take a walk on the wild side whenever you want and take yourself off on a route of discovery. A tap on the screen starts the handy tracking function � Maps 3D then records the track including performance stats such as average speed as well as the altitude ascended and descended. You can save this info as a GPX file and share it � along with the best snapshots � with your friends or training partners such as via email, Facebook or Twitter.

Those who are in unfamiliar surroundings and prefer to stay on the safe side or those who want to benchmark their performance against other sports fanatics can download GPX files of routes that others have already been on such as from the website Everytrail.com. Once imported into Maps 3D, the route opens automatically at the correct map tile and an arrow always shows you your current position and how much of the route you�ve covered.

Currently there are nine different map versions available for the USA, including hi-res aerial images and the official USGS Topographic Maps from which you can put together the nicest route sections before you set off. In addition, the local transport map is ideal for planning city tours as well as for choosing arrival and departure points.

What�s new in the latest version 3.1:
* Free USGS maps � the official Topographic Maps for the US
* Simplified map loading system

iLightningCam 6.0 - Photography of Real Lightning with iPhones Made Easy - Published on 04/17/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Indie developer Florian Stiassny today is proud to announce version 6.0 of 'iLightningCam'. It enables everyone who owns an iPhone 4 or newer or an iPad 2 or newer to take spectacular pictures of real lightning with full photo resolution. The app will automatically capture lightning if it happens in your view. It offers the first ever ISO control for iPhone, which is the only way to capture lightning during night without overexposure. It offers full photo resolution.

Vienna, Austria - Even with professional equipment a lighting strike is hard to capture. As opposed to a DSLR (Digital single-lens reflex camera) this app works completely hands-free during day and night even for small strikes or flashes. Just point your iPhone towards the part of the sky/thunderstorm where you expect lightning to strike, then start 'iLightningCam' and wait. The app will automatically capture lightning if it happens in your view. In addition, it offers the first ever ISO control for iPhone, which is the only way to capture lightning during night without overexposure. It also offers full photo resolution without any tricks or interpolation.

Version 6 offers an assistant, who guides you to the perfect camera settings within 30 seconds, even if you are completely new to photography. After 2 years of development the developers have found a cure against the rolling shutter artifacts of the iPhones camera hardware that might appear in some of the pictures of fast oscillating lightning strikes during night. The developers call it the SLOW mode, which offers an extreme fast lightning recognition paired with a slow exposure time.

Version 6 offers the following new features:
* Lightband artefact reduction for PhotoMode
* Doubleshot in PhotoMode (only 100-200 ms interval, depending on the device)
* Much faster and improved ISO control (iOS 6 required)
* Improved NightMode settings
* Support for Landscape left and right (changeable in options)
* Bug fixes for iOS versions prior to 6.0
* New instructions, in English, 'in Deutsch' et 'en Francais!'

For people, who still hesitate to believe that it is possible to capture lightning with a cell phone with high quality, Florian Stiassny offers a growing gallery of original lightning images taken using 'iLightningCam' at his website. In addition, the app offers a detailed illustrated manual, which explains the background of lightning of photography with an iPhone (R). The manual is now available in English, German and in French.

A warning from the developer: Thunderstorms are obviously dangerous and life threatening for everyone and not healthy for iPhones either. Take care using this app! Do not take any risks and avoid exposure to thunderstorms. Use this App only in lightning and in storm protected locations. You are solely responsible for your actions and any adverse consequences. There is a full safety warning included in the instructions page.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5
* iPad 2 or newer
* iPod touch or newer
* Requires iOS 4.2 or later, Please use iOS 6 or newer, to use all features the newest version of iOS is required

Pricing and Availability:
iLightningCam 6.0 is $1.99 (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Photo & Video category.
