POSiSales App Revolutionizes How Small Businesses Conduct Transactions - Published on 07/16/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Symbiotic, an Australian-based app development company, is pleased to announce the launch of POSiSales, their innovative new app which provides small business owners with a versatile and cost effective point-of-sale system. The POSiSales app for iPad is a full-service, feature laden point-of-sale solution that offers the fastest POS capabilities of any other system. The POSiSales application provides the best return on this IT investment, it's intuitive, convenient and easy-to-use.

Mont Albert, Australia - Symbiotic, an Australian-based app development company, is pleased to announce the launch of POSiSales, their innovative new app which provides small business owners with a versatile and cost effective point-of-sale system.

The POSiSales app for iPad is a full-service, feature laden point-of-sale solution that offers the fastest POS capabilities of any other system. Additionally, the system is convenient and easy-to-use, providing the best return on a POS iPad solution. The app is designed to support up to 1200 products, and all transactions can be safely and efficiently conducted on an iPad.

"This app is one of the most inexpensive and simple ways for small business owners to perform transactions on a day-to-day basis," said Dr. Helmut Imberger, developer of POSiSales. "We've created a system that can be used by anyone, and it drastically reduces costs associated with a point-of-sale system compared to running a computer based POS system, thereby helping a small business reduce operational costs, increase productivity and remain ahead of the competition."

The app gives business owners the capability to accept a variety of currencies, including the Euro, the U.S. Dollar, the South African RAND and Sterling. The system is wireless based via an Apple Airport Express, Extreme or Time Capsule, offers credit card and cash transactions, fast 40 column receipt printing, with a cash drawer triggered by the system. A password system controls user time based POSiSales access that can form the basis for hourly remuneration calculations. A "Quick Cash" button can be activated when dealing with a queue of clients lined up and in a hurry for their coffee; such cash transactions are saved and recorded in the background but don't print a receipt in the name of speed-of-service.

The stand-alone point-of-sale system lets the user place orders, invoice products, e-mail the order to a customer, and send to a warehouse, kitchen or reception printer. The system, comprising an iPad, the POSiSales app, Airport Express, receipt printer and cash drawer is ideal for use in a variety of industries, from sales in bakeries, homewares, cafes, the small grocery store to service-based businesses, restaurants, a ticketing agency, even a mobile van, wherever sales need to be made fast and easy!

Depending on the type of business, the pioneering app can track up to 100 simultaneous transactions configured either as "sets", "jobs" or "tables" for a restaurant setting. At the end of a business day, all information is compiled into a CSV document which is then sent to Dropbox. The tally of sales, line item transactions, user logins, tax, payment details, profit and customer information can be exported, then integrated into accounting software programs.

Adding to the convenience of the app, cost and prices of products and services can be implemented with or without the addition of taxes, and the app allows the user to customize the system in order to match tax systems (Tax, GST, VAT....) from locations around the world.

Features of the POSiSales app include:
* Point-of-sale solution
* Records and invoice sales
* Ordering
* Tracks cash flow
* Export Reports - sales transactions by line item, tax, profit, product sales tally, user login & time, customer records, all in CSV format
* Invoices can be set up to deal with "Tables" (e.g. Cafe, Restaurant) or Sets or Jobs (e.g Plumber, Florist, Grocery business)
* Till Reconciliation is included
* Customer information can recorded and searched
* User login with password allows time worked to be recorded and sent as a CSV report to Dropbox
* "Eat In or "To Go" can be designated against any order
* Each product "Category"; can be programmed with an IP address so that the product "Tiles" or buttons are then sent to a receipt or order or kitchen printer

Device Requirements:
* Compatible with iPad
* Requires iOS 4.3 or later
* 1.6 MB

Pricing and Availability:
POSiSales 1.3 is Free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Business category.

U.S. Students Continue To Trail The World In Math Skills - Published on 07/16/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The U.S., statistically speaking, can say it is improving math scores vs. the rest of the developed countries of the world, but that's trying to put lipstick on a pig. For a country that pays so much in taxes, shouldn't it be in the top five in most educational categories? Smart Apps 4 Kids is trying to help provide some aid with its release of "Money Math: Counting Coins" in the App Store a few days ago. It was developed for the iPad and helps children with counting coins in numerous ways.

Omaha, Nebraska - Smart Apps 4 Kids today is proud to announce their new app Money Math made its debut in the App Store on July 3rd and is out to help children with their math skills when it comes to counting coins. There are nine different games for children to play in which they add and subtract coins. It has three different levels so the children can continue to be challenged. In addition, there is also stimulating U.S. state and coin information. Money Math can track up to 4 different player's statistics on how they are performing. The app revolves around General George and his quest to save 50 magic coins that were stolen by Benny Arnold.

The U.S. education system is suffering and no change appears to be around the corner anytime soon. The finger can be pointed in many different directions: the teaching curriculum is stale, lower wages for teachers keeps some of the best people way, parent's lack of participation in school work, funding is drying up... and there are plenty more excuses to pass around. There are many different tools that can be added to our current education system to get our kids to the head of the class. Smart Apps 4 Kids is trying to do its part by developing fun and enlightening "education first" games for children.

Children today are growing up with some great tools around them like the tablet, smart phones and laptops. It only makes sense to try and incorporate these tools into our children's education. Everyone has a different style of learning that works best for them, so the more tools at our children's finger tips only improves the chances of enhancing their education. Smart Apps 4 Kids and other educational app developers are putting these new tools in the hands of the children hoping to make an impact.

Any technology tool that is connected to the Internet has risks involved when dealing with children. Money Math also is taking your child's privacy seriously by not including the following: internal links out to the Internet, In-App Purchases, ads, social networking features and GPS tracking. Smart Apps 4 Kids is a member of the Moms With Apps 'KNOW what's inside' program that lets parents know what is and what is not in apps before they purchase them. If we want our children to use these wonderful technological tools, it only makes sense to try and protect them too. Smart Apps 4 Kids apps do that by not including the above-mentioned features in them.

There is one sure-fire way to continue to fail when it comes to our education system and that is to continue on the current path. Change is hard, but if anything should break the binding chains of "do nothing" it should be our children. Money Math and its creators say, "we will make change with our coin app and do it the right way."

Device Requirements:
* Compatible with iPad
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later
* 55.1 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Money Math: Counting Coins 1.1 is $2.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Education category.

Sleepy Giant Teams Up with Jeff Matsuda for Comic ConQuest Game - Published on 07/16/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Game On, Comic Con: Sleepy Giant Entertainment is partnering with Emmy award-winning producer and comic book artist Jeff Matsuda, and Free Lunch Design (creators of the Icy Tower franchise) to develop Comic ConQuest, a free-to-play tactical RPG adventure for web, mobile and tablet platforms. The game is an epic adventure set in a giant comic and sci-fi convention in which costumed fans have been transformed into the characters they portray.

Newport Beach, California - Sleepy Giant Entertainment is partnering with Free Lunch Design (creators of the Icy Tower franchise) on Comic ConQuest, a free-to-play tactical RPG adventure set in a giant comic and sci-fi convention in which costumed fans have been transformed into the characters they portray. The homemade costumes and plastic weapons become real, and the show floor becomes a battleground as the attendees-turned-heroes use their newfound powers to fight their way to faction supremacy.

Comic ConQuest will feature the talents of Emmy award-winning producer and renowned comic book artist Jeff Matsuda. Matsuda's career spans 18 years in TV, film, comics and videogames. He is best known for producing The Batman and Jackie Chan Adventures, and for his work on fan favorite comic book titles such as X-Men, Batman, Wolverine, The Avengers, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

"I've always loved going to Comic Con and seeing Klingons walking around talking to Harry Potter and Batman. And I'd think, how awesome would it be if they had actual powers and fought to see who could rule the con? So when Sleepy Giant came to me with the idea for this game, I dove in headfirst," said Jeff Matsuda, Executive Producer. "We've got a super nerdy dream team over here with backgrounds in art, comics and gaming, and we're passionate about making Comic ConQuest a fun, die-hard nerd experience."

This is an epic adventure in a world where the suit really does make the hero. Players battle their way through the con, fighting for survival, hunting for swag, forming guilds, and striving for supremacy in the war-torn wasteland of the once (mostly) peaceful show floor.

Comic ConQuest is slated to launch across web, mobile, and tablet platforms in Q4 2013. Players who register by August 31, 2013 will receive free exclusive early access (to the web version) along with a set of virtual steak knives (in-game). Sign up and learn more at comicconquest.net.

To meet with Jeff Matsuda and the development team at Comic-Con San Diego, please contact Kate Lollar.
