SENTENCE READING MAGIC DELUXE for iOS - How to Build and Read a Sentence - Published on 08/12/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Preschool University today introduces SENTENCE READING MAGIC DELUXE 1.0 for iOS, its new app that provides the missing link between reading words and reading books - reading sentences. The app has two modes: Sentence Building, where children drag words into their correct positions in the sentence, and Sentence Reading, where kids read the words of the sentence aloud and then check their work by touching the hidden picture. The app features audible pronunciation of words and 324 sample sentences.

Minneapolis, Minnesota - Preschool University today is pleased to introduce SENTENCE READING MAGIC DELUXE 1.0 for iOS, its comprehensive new app that provides the missing link between reading words and reading books - reading sentences. The app has two modes: Sentence Building, where children drag the words into their correct positions, creating a sentence, and Reading Mode, where kids read the words of the sentence aloud and then check their work by touching the hidden picture. Featuring touch-to-hear, audible pronunciation of words, sentences, hints, and pictures that illustrate sentences, this full version of the app includes 324 sentences up to six words long, which are divided into four categories and 24 lessons. The app uses more than 40 of the most essential sight words, with special emphasis on 11 key words. SENTENCE READING MAGIC DELUXE has several sight word games for sight word practice and customizable settings for fonts, voices, and reward sounds.

Feature Highlights:
* Helps children become excellent, confident readers
* Familiarizes children with the most essential sight words
* Takes children from reading words to reading sentences
* Prepares children to read decodable sentences and books
* Gives children crucial practice decoding, blending, and comprehending complete sentences
* Offers children the opportunity to practice comprehension skills and increase fluency without becoming intimidated by a full page of print
* Provides children with the opportunity to become fluent readers
* Young children learn sentence building and sentence reading
* This intermediary skill, reading sentences, bridges the gap between reading words and reading books
* Adjustable levels of difficulty
* Words and sentences can be read aloud by the app
* Pictures and sound reinforce the connection between written words and that to which they refer
* Based on principles of the highly respected educator, Maria Montessori

Designed by Montessori preschool owner and lead teacher Richard Colombini, SENTENCE READING MAGIC DELUXE is designed as the third in a series of MAGIC apps, coming after ABC READING MAGIC 1-Short Vowel Words (learn to blend, segment and read 3-letter words), and ABC SPELLING MAGIC 1-Short Vowel Words (learn to build and encode 3-letter words). The goal is to enhance the learning process by setting up the right conditions for learners to be successful. The app gives emerging readers a step that will encourage skill building and confidence in reading.

SENTENCE READING MAGIC DELUXE operates in landscape orientation, and users can select either Sentence Building mode or Sentence Reading mode and sentences comprised of 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 words. For example, in 3-word Sentence Building mode, there is a large color photo inside a square at the center of the screen. The picture provides the concrete example on the basis of which the student can construct the phrase or sentence. Three words, each in a rectangle, appear randomly on the top half of the display. The words are all four letters or fewer. At the bottom of the screen are three empty rectangles side-by-side. The child must recognize the correct sentence, then drag the first word of the sentence to position one, the second word to rectangle two, and the last word to position three. Words dragged to the wrong position will not be accepted. Having successfully dragged all the words into place, the app plays music or an appropriate sound effect. At the same time, the three rectangles
become one long rectangle, joined into a new entity: a sentence. Touching the words or picture reads the sentence or phrase aloud, e.g. "Sam sat up."

It has been said that the best way to help children learn how to decode (read) words is by giving them lots of practice encoding words. (Encoding involves listening for the sounds and deciding which letters represent those phonemes.) The Sentence Building mode uses this principle and applies it to reading sentences. The Sentence Building mode gives children lots of practice "encoding"; sentences. This is to prepare them to be successful at reading sentences.

Neuropsychologist Dr. Jeannine Herron in her book, Making Speech Visible, uses research to show the value of encoding by stating, "Children first need to construct their own words before reading words someone else has constructed." The Sentence Building mode uses this principle and applies it to sentences. If children benefit from building words before reading words, then they will probably benefit from building sentences before reading them.

In 3-word Sentence Reading mode of the app, the large illustration square is blank. Three words are already occupying each of the three rectangles below. Here, students must read the 3-word sentence aloud. They may choose to check their answers as they progress by touching each word to hear it aloud. Having completed the exercise, the learner can touch the empty square to view the illustrative picture and hear the phrase or sentence aloud, e.g., "The pup runs."

An ideal interactive learning app for beginning readers, SENTENCE READING MAGIC DELUXE has all the qualities of an engaging, entertaining reading game for preschoolers. There is no scoring, competition, or running clock that would put it in the category of a Game, rather than Education App. But in practice, there is often no distinction between playing and learning. And SENTENCE READING MAGIC DELUXE 1.0 will provide hours of lively enjoyment and rigorous skill building combined in an expertly designed and executed iOS app.

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

Life Inventory Helps You Learn More About Yourself Than Ever Imagined - Published on 08/12/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

James Hollender's Life Inventory apps apps help users learn what makes them tick.. These apps may be complex, but once understood are amazing and built-in instructions are a great help. They guide users in creating their own Moral Inventory, which can provide greater self understanding of personality, strengths and weaknesses leading to a better quality of life, allowing the user to learn more about themselves than they ever thought possible.

Revere, Massachusetts - James Hollender's Life Inventory apps apps help users learn what makes them tick. These apps may be complex, but once understood are amazing and built-in instructions are a great help. They guide users in creating their own Life Inventory, another term for Moral Inventory, which can provide greater self understanding of personality, strengths and weaknesses leading to a better quality of life. These apps allow any user, even someone not in a 12-Step program, to learn more about themselves than they ever thought possible and at only a small fraction the cost of a single visit to a therapist. The Canadian Reviewer has suggested Life Inventory may even become your always available digital therapist:

"If your smartphone has become your personal trainer, assistant, and even financial advisor, why not turn it into your therapist as well? Life Inventory app for iOS is here to help you understand what makes you tick. This app helps you create your own Life Inventory or Moral Inventory to provide you with better understanding of your personality, strengths, and weaknesses to help you live a better life."

The recent update to version 3.0 provides additional security to the Life Inventory for iPad app which doesn't allow any access to the app at startup until proper authentication has been supplied, but only if the user has password protection implemented. This was a feature requested by a user who sometimes wants to loan out his iOS device, but doesn't want the other user to see anything, even the instructions. A similar upgrade was also done for the iPhone and iPod touch version 2.7.

The Life Inventory for iPad app was rated as the 3rd Top iOS App for 2012:

"Life Inventory for iPad: This iPad top iOs apps 2012 has the potential to let users create their very own Life Stock, which may present higher self-understanding of their character, strengths, and weaknesses. Life Stock is geared towards folks working by manner of a 12 step AA program and has quite quite a bit of spiritual connotations as faith and fellowship is the cornerstone of these kinds of programs. It assists customers in probing into not solely what happened, but in addition why it happened. Life Stock is certainly equivalent to moral inventory. Because the idea behind the app is advanced, new users might wrestle a bit with it. Life Stock is suitable with iPad and requires iOS 5.0 or later. This app costs USD 9.99. There may be additionally an iPhone version available."

Both the iPad and iPhone/iPod touch versions accomplish exactly the same thing, only the interface is considerably different for each because of the significant differences in screen size.

The process of completing a Life Inventory does not directly address anyone's specific problems, habits or addictions, but rather helps the user examine in detail events that have transpired in their life. The Life Inventory apps 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 guides the user through six different steps, each with its own activity grouping, for making a Life Inventory:

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

Throughout the process, users are encouraged to enter data into 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 related each Entity.

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, habits 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 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 (Fiber)
* iKals (Calories)
* iPotassium (Potassium)
* iProteins (Proteins)
* iSatFat (Saturated Fat)
* iSodium (Sodium)
* iSugars (Sugars)
* Vitamin K (Vitamins K1, K1D & K2)
* iNutrients (encompasses all ten nutrients listed above)

Device Requirements:
* "Life Inventory" - iPhone and iPod touch
* "Life Inventory for iPad" - iPad only
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later

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

Art Authority Debuts Major New Way to Look at Art - Published on 08/12/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Size Matters. Art Authority, developers of the award-winning line of classic art apps, today announced "Art Real Size," a new way of looking at and understanding art. Available immediately as part of Art Authority for iPad, "Art Real Size" lets users instantly and intuitively see and comprehend the actual size of many of the 65,000 classic paintings and sculptures displayed by the app. The app is on sale for half price to celebrate.

Ashland, Oregon - Art Authority, developers of the award-winning line of classic art apps, today announced "Art Real Size," a new way of looking at and understanding art. Available immediately as part of Art Authority for iPad, "Art Real Size" lets users instantly and intuitively see and comprehend the actual size of many of the 65,000 classic paintings and sculptures displayed by the app. The app is on sale for half price to celebrate.

Until now, Art Authority and most other art sources would display each work of art at about the same size: completely filling the whole screen, or some large part of it, or in an array of small thumbnail images of related works. The site might also include the size of the work in an overall description (such as "25.2 x 37.8 in"), but this numeric data doesn't really mean anything to most users, who end up ignoring it. "Art Real Size" replaces numbers we can't understand with images and context we can.

Art Authority for iPad has always displayed its art in the context of a real-world museum, framed and hanging on the walls of professionally designed rooms. "Art Real Size" adds one simple, key element to that context, which immediately makes clear and comprehensible the size of those framed works: people. By including an appropriately-sized image of a couple looking at a work, Art Authority intuitively conveys the size of that work.

"Size really does matter when it comes to art," said Alan Oppenheimer, president of Art Authority. "You can't fully understand the Mona Lisa without understanding how small it is, nor Michelangelo's David or 'Last Judgment' without understanding how large. With Art Real Size users gain this understanding instantly."

"If you can get to the museum to see a work of art, you should. If not, Art Real Size is the next best way to fully understand and appreciate works of art."

To show what "Art Real Size" is all about, Art Authority has posted a video and series of images on its blog. Art Real Size is part of Art Authority for iPad 4.8, available immediately through the iTunes App Store. To highlight and celebrate the new feature, the app is currently available for half-price at $4.99. Upgrades from previous versions are free. Details of the entire line of Art Authority apps and services are available on the Art Authority Web site.

Art Authority for iPad is the only iPad Reference app to be named to both of Apple's Rewind "best of" lists. It brings 65,000 high-resolution classic works of art to users' fingertips. Hailed as "an experience unlike any other" and "visually dazzling," the app professionally displays paintings and sculptures by over 1000 major western artists from ancient times through current-day. Art Authority for Macintosh and iPhone bring similar functionality to these devices.

Art Authority is the product of an innovative collaboration between two separate software companies, Open Door Networks and Project A. Art Authority's mission is the design, development and deployment of the best ways for users to experience art on their modern-day devices.

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

Pricing and Availability:
Art Authority for iPad 4.8 is $4.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Reference category.

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Popular iOS app developer, Musopia today announces a collaboration with one of the world's leading online guitar instruction sites, Justin Guitar, to enhance support for beginning guitarists in the FourChords Guitar Karaoke app for iPhone and iPad. The iOS app is designed to make playing guitar as easy as possible. Justin Guitar's Chord Tutorials offer instruction to FourChords' users on how to play all 11 easy chords needed to perform the 250 popular songs in the FourChords songbook.

Helsinki, Finland - Popular iOS app developer, Musopia today is thrilled to announce a collaboration with one of the world's leading online guitar instruction sites, Justin Guitar, to enhance support for beginning guitarists in the FourChords Guitar Karaoke app for iPhone and iPad. Justin Guitar's Chord Tutorials offer instruction to FourChords' users on how to play all 11 easy chords needed to perform the 250 popular songs in the FourChords songbook.

Guitar players using FourChords can find the video tutorials within the app, so they can easily learn how to play each chord while practicing the song without leaving the app.

Justin Sandercoe's video tutorials are well-known among guitarists worldwide, with more than 130 million YouTube views to date.
"Justin is one of the best guitar coaches in the world, and we are pleased to be working with him," said Paula Lehto, marketing director for Musopia. "Many of us have learned to play by his instructions so we know that he is the man to teach FourChords app users too.

Aspiring guitarists can now find everything they need to learn a substantial repertoire of contemporary songs in the FourChords app. The iOS app is designed to make playing guitar as easy as possible, replacing notes and tabs with a simple karaoke-style interface in which each chord is represented by its own icon along with the song lyrics. Songs are rearranged in simplified versions to be played with only a few easy chords. An acoustic backing track helps guitarists keep the beat, and the pace can be adjusted as needed.

Musopia's mission is to make playing an instrument so easy that everybody can do it. The company is currently working on their next high-quality app, which will "change the way that chords can be learned, providing the first step in a guitarist's career," according to Lehto.

Guessing whether you are on pace or not? Not anymore; Fitnotix Run will track the users average pace and let them know during their run whether they are on, behind, or ahead of pace right through their headphones.

Play your Music! Fitnotix Run will allow users to play any music apps in the background. Fitnotix Run will temporarily reduce the volume of your music to give direction or pace updates.

These are the new features Fitnotix offers runners. The Fitnotix Running app will still do the things other apps do that runners love; track calories, share completed runs on social media and keep a running total of all stats.

New App: The Fat Penguin breaks the ice IRL - Published on 08/12/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

MAAL Games today is proud to announce The Fat Penguin 1.02 for iOS. The Fat Penguin is a crazy cool social trivia game, with a dash of controversy - an app that breaks the ice IRL with new & old friends. It was nominated for a Danish App Award 2012. For 2-8 players, that will challenge the limits of what you consider "TMI", and how much you are willing to share of your deepest secrets & freakiest experiences. Will surely shock some, and have others bursting into fits of uncontrollable laughter.

Copenhagen, Denmark - From Denmark (where it created a lot of stir), despite being the happiest place in the world (and the first nation to legalize pornography, although any connection between the two is unproven), comes an app that will surely shock some, and have others bursting into fits of uncontrollable laughter.

"The Fat Penguin" (because nothing breaks the ice better, except perhaps a fat polar bear) is a social trivia game, for 2-8 players (IRL), that will challenge the limits of what you consider "TMI", and how much you are willing to share of your deepest secrets, and freakiest experiences.

It was criticized in Denmark for being too sexual regarding its inquisitive content, but despite this, it has been used in special education purposes for the mentally challenged. "In order to give them a fun and innocent way to talk about sex, which is especially hard for my students", says Julie Rasmussen of Langagerskolen (School for the Mentally Challenged).

By "Sex & Samfund" ("Sex & Society", a Danish non-profit lobby organization)

MAAL Games Inc., the Copenhagen-based publishers, succeeded to get an honorable nomination for "App of the Year", in the competitive category "Games & Entertainment", at the Danish App Awards in November 2012.

"The Fat Penguin" is free to begin with - check it out!

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

Pricing and Availability:
The Fat Penguin 1.02 is Free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category.
