DEVONtechnologies rolls out Spring Updates - Published on 04/23/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

DEVONtechnologies, LLC today releases maintenance updates for all their commercial products from DEVONthink over DEVONsphere to DEVONagent as well as their popular freeware products EasyFind, PhotoStickies, and XMenu. The updates are free and recommended for all users. The overall reliability and performance of all apps were enhanced. Other improvements include various minor changes to the user interface that make the workflow with DEVONthink and DEVONnote smoother.

Coeur d'Alene, Idaho - DEVONtechnologies, LLC today releases maintenance updates for all their commercial products from DEVONthink over DEVONsphere to DEVONagent as well as their popular freeware products EasyFind, PhotoStickies, and XMenu. The updates are free and recommended for all users. FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE.

The update of all editions of DEVONthink to version 2.5.2 clearly focuses on teamwork and workflow. It improves the performance and reliability of the synchronization. The enhanced Clip to DEVONthink web browser extension indicates that a web address to be added is already present in the open databases and, together with the bookmarklets, allows to create and capture as rich text. DEVONthink Pro Office's web sharing is much faster in version 2.5.2 and allows you to add comments via its Info panel. Other improvements include various minor changes to the user interface that make the workflow with DEVONthink and DEVONnote smoother.

Version 3.5 of DEVONagent, DEVONtechnologies&#39; web research assistant, comes with a new plugin for searching the website of the British Library and updates a number of plugins. We have also improved the filtering of links to social bookmarking sites and to already cached pages. The Tube scanner is, once again, compatible to the changed YouTube website. DEVONagent Pro 3.5 also updates two search sets and adds new options for actions. The new "File Results in DEVONthink Pro" action script automatically adds new found result to the global inbox of DEVONthink Pro or Pro Office, which, together with scheduled searches, makes the two apps the perfect tool set for continuous research on a subject. You can, of course, copy and modify the script for your own needs. In addition DEVONagent Pro adds found results to DEVONthink now in a variety of formats. DEVONagent is DEVONtechnologies&#39; web research assistant.

DEVONsphere Express 1.6.1 supports FoldingText files, displays phone numbers of contacts without email address, adds compatibility to OS X 10.8's Contact app, and filters links to social bookmarking sites better. You can use the Home and End keys in Quick Look previews without activating it with the mouse first. Version 1.6.1 makes installing easier by automatically copying itself to the Applications folder. Whatever you're working on DEVONsphere Express presents you with contextually relevant data from your own computer as well as from the Internet.

The freeware find-file utility EasyFind gets a toolbar item to quickly share files using OS X 10.8's new sharing mechanism and menu commands for easily previewing found items with Quick Look and as a slideshow. All three updated freeware apps, EasyFind 4.9.1, PhotoStickies 5.6.6, and XMenu 1.9.5 are now available with a Brasilian Portuguese localization, improve compatibility to OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion, and pass GateKeeper without any warnings.

Finally, we have, as always, enhanced the overall reliability and performance of all apps as well as fixed bugs reported by our users.

"Our mission is to empower our users with true workhorse tools for information management and research. The ultra-flexible synchronization feature we have introduced with DEVONthink 2.5 gives them the ability to keep databases between all their Macs in sync. Dropbox, WebDAV, local file servers, or direct connections: our users have the choice. And if sync is not an option there's web sharing that gives even their Windows and Linux using colleagues access to the documents via their favorite web browser. Today's updates further improve these important features in DEVONthink, add new automation options to DEVONagent, and enhance DEVONsphere Express which integrates smart contextual search to your Mac," comments Eric Bohnisch-Volkmann, President of DEVONtechnologies.

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Staying on budget and keeping track of bills is quick and easy with Yomaney, a powerful new personal finance app. Providing all of the support of a money management professional, user-friendly Yomaney is now available for free download through the iTunes App Store. Alerts notify users of unpaid bills, budgeting and analysis features help rein in spending, and financial information can be synchronized to be securely viewed from any computer or mobile device.

Gold Coast, Australia - Staying on budget and keeping track of bills is quick and easy with Yomaney, an innovative new personal finance app. Providing all of the support of a money management professional, user-friendly Yomaney is now available for free download through the iTunes App Store.

"Few people can afford a financial advisor to track their spending and help them maintain a budget," said Omer Tamir, developer of Yomaney. "With Yomaney, now anyone can have a powerful and easy to use financial planning tool in the palm of their hand."

Well-organized and easy to navigate, Yomaney provides several key money management features. With expense and income tracking features on Yomaney, embarrassing debit card rejections will be a thing of the past. Users enter information on the go and always know their account balances.

With Yomaney, users don't have to worry about slow payments that can ruin a credit rating or late fees that can drain a bank account. An alerts feature in the app will notify users of unpaid bills through the app or via email. Alerts are available for both recurring bills, such as rent or utilities, or infrequent bills, such as school or business club fees.

Customers eager to rein in their spending will appreciate Yomaney's budgeting and analysis features. Users set budget goals and Yomaney does the rest, alerting customers if they are overspending or if they have flexibility to make an extra purchase. Plus, Yomaney's easy-to-read reports and graphs help users visualize the state of their finances.

Harnessing the power of cloud technology, the Yomaney app synchronizes data as customers enter it with the Yomaney website. This feature allows customers to easily view their financial information from any computer or mobile device. Customers can even download information from Yomaney to a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet to create their own statistics.

Many people are concerned about the risks of exposing sensitive financial data to online predators, but Yomaney customers can feel confident that the security of their personal information is protected. Because Yomaney is committed to stringent privacy management, data on the app, website and cloud have been encrypted and are safe.

With soccer games, business meetings and social events to attend, managing finances can fall by the wayside. However, people must keep track of their income and expenses to have a full and rewarding life. Yomaney gives busy students, families and small business owners the tools they need to quickly and easily manage their finances, whenever and wherever.

Typinator 5.5 - Powerful Text Expansions with Embedded Calculations - Published on 04/23/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Ergonis Software today announces Typinator 5.5, a new version of their popular text expander. Typinator is a powerful, yet elegantly simple solution that boosts your productivity by automating the process of inserting frequently used text and auto-correcting typing errors. Version 5.5 includes many other enhancements. With the new concept of calculation fields, Typinator offers amazingly powerful text expansions for regular users without any programming skills.

Hagenberg, Austria - Ergonis Software today is thrilled to announce the release of Typinator 5.5, a new version of their popular text expander. With the new concept of calculation fields, Typinator offers amazingly powerful text expansions for regular users without any programming skills.

The new calculation fields allow computations and assignments of computed values to variables. Until now, this could have been achieved with external scripts, but with the new feature, calculations can be embedded right into expansions. This opens the door to unbelievably versatile and flexible expansions without the need for any programming skills.

"Calculation fields are a rather simple concept, but the possibilities are virtually endless. In combination with input fields, you can use Typinator to write a complete bill with just a few keystrokes, with discounts, taxes, etc.," said Guenther Blaschek, CTO of Ergonis Software. "Combined with some scripts - such as the Convert script from our Download Extras page - you can even include the amount in other currencies, based on the current exchange rate."

In addition to the new calculation fields, Typinator 5.5 includes many other enhancements like improved matching for certain abbreviations with similar endings and better support for time zones. Another benefit of the new release is improved compatibility with OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion) and many third-party applications like Safari, Google Chrome, Firefox, Opera, OmniWeb, Thunderbird, Mail, Pages, Scrivener, Sibelius, Nisus Writer, and others.

Visit Ergonis Software's website to learn more about the changes in this release and to download and try the new version.

Typinator is a powerful, yet elegantly simple solution that boosts your productivity by automating the process of inserting frequently used text and auto-correcting typing errors. Across all applications, it detects specific sequences of typed characters and automatically replaces them with text snippets, graphics, URLs, dates and special characters.

System Requirements:
Typinator 5.5 requires Mac OS X 10.5.8 or newer and is fully compatible with OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion).

Cirencester, United Kingdom - Less than three years since setting up business, mobile games studio Neon Play have won a prestigious Queen's Award for Enterprise in the "Innovation&quot; category.

The Queen's Awards for Enterprise recognises outstanding achievement by UK businesses in the categories of Innovation, International Trade and Sustainable Development.

It is believed that Neon Play is the first UK mobile game studio to receive a Queen's Award.

Awarded annually on 21st April, to coincide with Her Majesty the Queen's birthday, candidates are judged to a demanding standard and must demonstrate the highest levels of excellence in each category. The award will be formally conferred by a grant of appointment, which will be presented to Neon Play by Dame Janet Trotter, the Lord Lieutenant of Gloucestershire later in the year. This will be followed in July by CEO Oli Christie and CTO Mark Allen meeting the Queen at Buckingham Palace.

On top of this, Neon Play have also recently been recognised as one of the Top 250 "brightest and best" companies in the country by Lord Young and Sir Terry Leahy. This has resulted in them being invited to be a founder member of Accelerate 250, a group of companies tasked with the ambition to help build Britain as a global centre for commercial excellence.

Oli Christie, CEO of Neon Play commented, "We have been lucky enough to win 12 business awards in the last year or so, but this crowns the lot and is the cherry on top of the icing on the cake. We are hugely honoured to win a Queen's Award for Innovation. For such a young company in Cirencester to win this genuinely prestigious award is a huge moment in Neon Play's short history."
