Sunnyvale, California - Many people enjoyed the low rates of calling cards to dial international calls. Today it becomes increasingly common to use them on a mobile phone as well. However, the calling card dialing is a hassle. People will need to remember and dial an access number.

* You do a one-time configuration, including your local access number and any pin number if needed

* No Access Number Nor Pin Number Needed
* Calling Card Pal will automatically detect the foreign numbers and translate into proper dialing sequence to dial the local access number, plus any pin number (if so configured) and destination number
* You can also dial international numbers directly from your phone book

For example, a US user would simply dial 011 <country> <number>. Calling Card Pal will automatically detect the international number and translate the dialing into an local access number you configured, plus any pin number (if so configured) and destination number.

Calling Card Pal also supports pinless dialing or any advanced dialing patterns (e.g., language selections etc).

Here are some additional features:
* Seamless dialing from native dialer (Android)

HedgeHog releases CircleTime Lite 1.0 for iOS - A new calendar - Published on 08/22/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

HedgeHog today is proud to announce CircleTime Lite 1.0 for iOS. CircleTime is a calendar unlike any before. In the desire to present its advantages to the entire world, its authors have now also released a free edition which offers insight into the concept of the new calendar. CircleTime is undoubtedly a calendar of the future, which transcends the presentation of the already established calendar. The new calendar takes us to a whole new understanding of time.

Ljubljana, Slovenia - CircleTime is a calendar unlike any before. In the desire to present its advantages to the entire world, its authors have now also released a free edition 'CircleTime Lite', which offers insight into the concept of the new calendar. CircleTime is undoubtedly a calendar of the future, which transcends the presentation of the already established calendar - a calendar made centuries ago with its presentation dictated by a limited technology of that era, of writing and rewriting on the then-known medium.

Today, in a world of extraordinary technological advancement, we can finally allow ourselves to overcome these limitations. And that is exactly what needed to be done in regard to a calendar whose presentation in all this time hasn't received a single update.

The new calendar takes us to a whole new understanding of time. Understanding which was up until now hidden, and used to be known to but a few individuals who created the calendaric presentation that obfuscated not only knowledge of time, but also that of our solar system.

Now that we are already familiar with these once secrets, came the time to return the calendar, with the use of a modern technology, back to its natural form - a circle, which represents cycles in nature, seasons and their continual repeating.

Implementation of the new calendar was only made possible by the modern electronic gadgets, and it is currently available for the Apple iOS devices. By providing the wonderful technology, these devices allow presentation and handling in a user-friendly manner. This way the calendar uses every benefit of the iOS environment, but offering a long forgotten yet fresh-new time presentation.

CircleTime is compatible with iCloud and other accounts which makes it extremely useful. "We wanted to have a calendar that actually tells us something about time, and we haven't found a single reason to be content with the established presentation made from rows and columns, which barely tells us anything." said Dejan Durini, one of the inventors of the new calendar.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone 3GS, 4, 4S, iPhone 5, iPod touch and iPad
* Requires iOS 6.0 or later
* 31.7 MB

Pricing and Availability:
CircleTime Lite 1.0 is Free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Productivity category.

The iconic 5 Little Monkeys nursery rhyme has come to iOS - Published on 08/22/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Classic nursery rhyme app teaches language, counting, cognitive skills. Kid's Academy Company today is proud to introduce Kids Academy - 5 Little Monkeys - Interactive Nursery Rhyme 1.0 for iOS. Now parents and children can sing along while interacting with the rambunctious primates on their device. Through beautiful graphics, 5 Little Monkeys turns counting and language development into a fun-filled sing-a-long. The repetitious quality helps kids develop vital cognitive skills.

Based in New York - After decades of parents and children singing the classic nursery rhyme, those 5 Little Monkeys are still jumping on the bed! Kid's Academy Company is bringing the story to life with the immediate launch of 5 Little Monkeys on iOS. Now parents and children can sing along while interacting with the rambunctious primates on their iPhones, iPads and iPods. The app aims to help parents teach counting and language skills to kids while sharing the beloved nursery rhyme.

Through beautiful graphics featuring adorable animals, 5 Little Monkeys turns counting and language development into a fun-filled sing-a-long for young children. The repetitious quality of the nursery rhyme helps kids develop vital cognitive skills including: memorization, reasoning and comprehension. Research has shown that children who learn nursery rhymes in their developmental years are likely to be better readers as they mature.

The repetition of 5 Little Monkeys helps teach kids important reading comprehension skills such as pace and voice inflection. When a child understands the context of how words are used, they are likely to make those words a part of their everyday vocabulary. Even the simple action of singing along can aid the physical development of a child, as well. Using mouth and tongue muscles regularly to form rhymes helps with pronunciation, and other movement involved in the rhyme helps children develop coordination. Children who sing and dance along with the 5 Little Monkeys will not only be using their brain, they'll be getting some fun exercise, too.

"When children act out nursery rhyme stories like 5 Little Monkeys, they learn to imagine, create and express in a fun and imaginative way," says Alexander Shingel, CTO of Kid's Academy Company. "Nursery rhymes form the foundation for children to understand basic emotions and feelings of themselves and others. The 5 Little Monkeys app emphasizes humor while teaching valuable lessons about following rules."
