immages 1.5 for iOS: View the Best of Image Hosting Sites With No Delays - Published on 09/27/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Indie developer Matthias Schonder today announces immages 1.5 for iOS, an update to his innovative photo app that provides a nearly endless stream of content from the user's favorite photography and design websites. With advanced pre-fetch and caching, users can scroll through individually displayed photos as fast as they like, with no waiting. The app features photo downloading/sharing, favorites, and native website view, and it streams the best of FFFFound, Flickr, Tumblr, 500px, and Dribbble.

Warzburg, Germany - Indie developer Matthias Schonder today is pleased to announce immages 1.5 for iOS, an update to his innovative photo app that provides a nearly endless stream of content from the user's favorite photography and design websites. With advanced pre-fetch and caching, users can scroll through individually displayed photos as fast as they like, with no waiting. The app features photo downloading/sharing, favorites, and native website view, and it streams the best of FFFFound, Flickr, Tumblr, 500px, and Dribbble. The current update includes even faster Image Loading, a new Sharing View, and Copy to the Pasteboard.

Feature Highlights:
* View the best work posted on the major photo and design websites
* Advanced pre-fetch and caching eliminates lag time between photos
* Easily share or download photos and designs
* View photos on their native websites for full details
* Turn Active Sources of photos On/Off to conserve memory and caching

With more than 100 billion photos posted on image hosting and microblogging sites worldwide, sampling only the best can be a challenge. Many sites have special sections, where the most popular or highly rated photos can be viewed. For example, Flickr has created a proprietary algorithm for selecting photos for its Flickr Interestingness collection of photos. According to Flickr, "There are lots of things that make a photo 'interesting' (or not) in the Flickr. Where the clickthroughs are coming from; who comments on it and when; who marks it as a favorite; its tags and many more things which are constantly changing. Interestingness changes over time, as more and more fantastic photos and stories are added to Flickr." Similarly, other sites have put selected photos in their special collections.

Special Collections Photos and Design on immages:
* Flickr Interestingness
* Tumblr Radar Archive
* FFFFound
* Dribbble
* 500px Popular Photos
* 500px Upcoming Photos
* 500px Editors' Choice
* 500px Fresh Today
* 500px Fresh Yesterday
* 500px Fresh This Week

immages operates in portrait orientation and displays photos individually on a dark gray background, free of any text. Users can scroll horizontally, forward and backward, with no delay caused by the downloading process. For full details about any photo, they can touch a button, opening the app's built-in browser, which displays the photo on its native website page. Users can continue viewing more work of that photographer or return to browsing, without ever leaving the app. Another button opens a Sharing Window, with integrated Twitter, Facebook, and email connectivity. A Download button automatically saves the photo to the Photoalbum.

"You have never experienced a smoother, more elegant, photo-browsing app than immages," commented developer Matthias Schonder. "It has been especially designed for beauty, accuracy, speed, and ease of use - bringing the best photos posted online to your iDevice."

Language Support:
* English and German

Device Requirements:
* iPhone 3GS, 4, 4S and iPhone 5, iPod touch (3rd, 4th and 5th gen) and iPad
* Requires iOS 6.0 or later
* 0.8 MB

Pricing and Availability:
immages 1.5 is $1.99 (USD) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Photo & Video category. Review copies are available on request.

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Maximum Felix Media is releasing Something Blue, the first in a series of digital iPad Flick Books. Something Blue features a squishy blue monster that gets bigger and bigger as you flick rapidly through the iPad pages.

Melbourne, Australia - Independent iBooks Publisher, Maximum Felix Media is releasing the first in a series of digital 'Flick Books'. Something Blue, a Flick The Pages Quick! Book, by C S Hughes, will be available in the iBooks Store from October 1st. Flick The Pages Quick! books attempt to reproduce in digital form the animated effect of a traditional, printed flick book. Flick or flip books use a series of gradually varying pictures, so when the pages are flicked rapidly, the pictures appear to animate.

The first in the series, Something Blue, features a squishy blue monster that gets bigger and bigger, as you flick rapidly through the iPad pages. The images are accompanied by a rhyme, which, according to the author, is what might have happened if Edgar Allan Poe and Doctor Seuss got together and wrote a rhyme about a horrible blue monster. The book also takes advantage of the iBook's media rich platform, and features animation, as well as various hidden 'Easter Egg' sounds, if pages are pressed in the right place. Although meant for 4 to 8 year olds, several parents have also been observed laughing their heads off at Blue's antics.

Pricing and Availability:
Something Blue will be available for $2.99 from October 1st, 2013, exclusively for iPad in the iBooks store. Other books in the same format are already in production by publisher Maximum Felix Media. Review copies are available on request.

New version of LensTutorial for iOS - Published on 09/27/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Sydney based SmartLearnApps today announces the new version of LensTutorial for iPhone & iPad. LensTutorial 1.4 is a free app that allows to manipulate a photographic lens in a virtual environment. Play with new zoom values to investigate photographic opportunities. You can interactively slide focal length (zoom the lens), lens aperture and focusing distance. The app will show you how depth of field, angle of view and size of the model being photographed is changing according to your selection.

Sydney, Australia - SmartLearnApps today is pleased to announce the new version of LensTutorial for iPhone and iPad. LensTutorial is a free app that allows to manipulate a photographic lens in a virtual environment. You can interactively slide focal length (zoom the lens), lens aperture and focusing distance. The app will show you how depth of field, angle of view and size of the model being photographed is changing according to your selection.

Lens Tutorial is providing ways to play with new zoom values to investigate photographic opportunities and see how lenses in different focal ranges behave in reality. Visual and interactive style simplifies learning for beginner photographers. Experienced photographers will find use for hard numbers that LensTutorial provides in a classic dof calculator fashion. Large font/hi-contrast mode will work well in studio or outdoor environments.

Lens Tutorial can calculate and visualize the following parameters:
* DOF (depth of field)
* Near and far DOF range
* Horizontal angle of view
* Photo model size in units of your choice (metric/imperial)
* 35mm equivalent focal length (compensates for selected digital camera sensor size)

Highlights:
* Standard range of 18-135 mm f/2.8-f/16 for any camera/lens setup
* 3400 cameras in database storing Crop Factor and lens mount information
* 2400 built-in lens specifications for point'n shoot, DSLR-like and other models with no interchangeable lenses
* Upgrade of Aperture from f/0.75 superfast lens to f/64 present in telephoto and macro lenses
* Upgrade of Zoom from ultrawide 14mm to super telephoto 1000 mm range
* Upgrade of Distance from macro-like 2 ft (50 cm) to extreme distant 115 ft (35m)
* Large font scheme with hi-contrast for outdoor use
* Ability to share photographic setups on Twitter, Facebook, email and more

Why LensTutorial is different from all those DOF calcs out there?

There are several important distinctions that make LensTutorial stand out in the crowd:
* Interactive style of handling lens parameters: you slide lens controls and they respond in realtime
* Visual representation: Depth of field / angle of view are both drawn on the screen at the same time and compliment hard numbers
* Look and feel: LensTutorial uses real lens engravings, textures and operation style

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch and iPad
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later
* This app is optimized for iPhone 5
* 7.3 MB

Pricing and Availability:
LensTutorial 1.4 is Free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Photo & Video category.

�We�ve seen an incredible reception of layrs from mobile photographers,� said Janice Ozguc, founder. �In a short 10 days over half a million users downloaded the app. The best part? We don�t just have a fan base of talented mobile photographers, but a group who stays connected to layrs by sharing their photos and competing to be chosen as layrs Photo of the Day on social media.

Math Dory 1.0 for iOS: Interactive Math + Logic Practice for Kids 4 to 8 - Published on 09/27/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

VCare Creation today introduces Math Dory 1.0 for iOS, its interactive, edutainment app for kids 4 to 8, which provides stimulating practice in basic arithmetic and logic. Math Dory includes features rarely seen in most similar apps, including: 7 categories of problems, 3 modes of operation, 3 - 8 difficulty settings for each category, personalized settings for 5 different kids, progress report sent to parent's email, multiple activities within each category, and randomly generated problems.

Hong Kong, Hong Kong - VCare Creation today is pleased to introduce Math Dory 1.0 for iOS, another in its series of interactive, edutainment apps for kids 4 to 8, which provides stimulating practice in basic arithmetic and logic. Math Dory includes features rarely seen in most similar apps, including: 7 categories of problems, 3 modes of operation, 3 - 8 difficulty settings for each category, personalized settings for 5 different kids, progress report sent to parent's email, multiple activities within each category, and randomly generated problems.

Feature Highlights:
* Wide range of numbers covered (0 - 100) and range is customizable
* Covers 7 important math topics
* Up to 5 customizable profiles for parents with lots of kids
* Different activities in the same math topics, ensuring children will not get bored
* Learning mode for kids to learn a particular math topic
* Challenge mode sharpens your kids' skills by practicing selected topics within a time period
* Have Fun mode with more than 60 stickers for children to collect and play with
* Built-in reports for parents to review their children's performance
* All music in this app is originally composed with the aim to help children learn

Featuring Dory, the young, female dolphin, she reads each problem aloud and encourages kids to try again if they answer incorrectly. Dory is marine mammal, and all the math and logic problems in the app relate to the ocean in some way. So, when counting, adding, subtracting, and ordering kids drag fishes, shells, pearls, and beach blankets. There are always concrete examples used in problems, and kids never need to contend with math flash cards, containing only numbers. Dory acts as a companion and guide through all seven categories of problems in the app.

Seven Categories of Problems:
* Matching - drag to match items by color, shape, pattern, number, etc.
* Addition - solve simple equations involving two numbers by dragging addends or sums
* Counting - tap an object the correct number of times or drag the correct number of shapes
* Subtraction - solve simple equations involving two numbers by dragging subtrahends, minuends, or differences
* Pattern & Position - drag items into the correct empty position in a sequence, based on number, color, pattern, etc.
* Less & More - pick the longest and shortest objects; find the largest and smallest items; determine the item with the most or fewest of a characteristic, e.g., which sand castle has the most and fewest windows
* Sequence - drag to sort and order sea creatures, objects, and numbers

"Math Dory is nothing like typical math apps for kids," commented Vincent Choy of VCare Creation. "It goes beyond simple addition and subtraction, and helps teach kids how to think - how to analyze a problem."

Language Support:
* English, Japanese Simplified Chinese, Spanish, and Traditional Chinese

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
* Requires iOS 4.3 or later
* Universal app optimized for display on all iOS devices
* 46.3 MB

Free App Weaves New Challenges - Published on 09/27/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

OatyCakes Development announces Woven Free 1.0.1, their new game title for iOS. Woven Free is a stunning new concept in puzzle games. Enjoy a brand new stylish puzzle in which you weave together beautiful tapestries to complete the game. The goal is to drag ribbons to match the color on a peg. Intuitive play requires you to think ahead. Even the easiest levels require planning up to ten steps ahead. The puzzle is complete when the ribbon on top matches the colored dot.

Albuquerque, New Mexico - OatyCakes Development is proud to announce the release of Woven Free 1.0.1, their new game title for iOS. Tired of birds and zombies? Woven Free helps train your brain while you play. Enjoy a brand new stylish puzzle in which you weave together beautiful tapestries to complete the game. Intuitive play requires you to think ahead. The puzzle is complete when the ribbon on top matches the colored dot.

As chief developer Lane Thompson puts it, "We were setting out to make a fun game, and we succeeded. But in testing, we learned that the skills Woven fostered helped in mathematical problem solving and spatial visualization." Even the easiest levels require planning up to ten steps ahead. And pivotally, it's a game people want to play.

When you hear math, your mind immediately jumps to addition, subtraction, and painful school memories. But that is only a small part of mathematics, and has little bearing on mathematical ability.

Some of the key factors for mathematical success are spatial and visual awareness, the ability to plan ahead, and pattern recognition. But none of these are tested in standard situations. That is where the new iOS app Woven comes in.

Woven is the sophomore effort of OatyCakes Development. After developing the top word game WordSlots, they knew that there would be high expectations for the next game. The goal is to drag ribbons to match the color on a peg. Sound easy? If you can plan ahead and envision what's going to happen several moves ahead, you'll move quickly to the more challenging levels. If it doesn't come easy, don't worry, you'll get better at it quickly. The best part? It's a free download at the App Store.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 5.1 or later
* 3.8 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Woven Free 1.0.1 is available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category.

With its recent update adding more toys and a parental gate, Build and Play 3D - Planes, Trains, Robots and More offers an even better experience for active youngsters ready to build. The deceptively simple app introduces concepts like left/right, front/back and top/bottom and reinforces visual spatial skills.

Bucharest, Romania - Successful iOS developer Croco Studio is pleased to share that its flagship app Build and Play 3D - Planes, Trains, Robots and More was highlighted by Apple in three different categories when the long awaited Kids App Store debuted with the release of iOS 7. Editors deemed it worthy of inclusion in the Best for Ages 5 and Under, Shapes & Colors and Create and Play categories. To celebrate, Croco Studio has made four of its kids' apps free.

With its recent update adding more toys and a parental gate, Build and Play 3D - Planes, Trains, Robots and More offers an even better experience for active youngsters ready to build. The deceptively simple app introduces concepts like left/right, front/back and top/bottom and reinforces visual spatial skills. It received an Editor's Choice Award from Children's Technology Review and was selected by educational experts at appoLearning as one of the top 5 apps to support Reasoning in Early Childhood.

Kids enamored with the shiny toys that come to life when put together have reason to celebrate because a follow up called Build and Play 3D - Rockets, Helicopters, Submarines and More was released September 13, 2013. Also joining the family shortly will be Build and Play - Planes Special Edition. This eagerly awaited new app follows the model of Croco Studio's other hit apps but adds considerable improvements to animation. The child-appealing colorful and beautiful design and the flying aces will offer even greater opportunities for creative play.

"As parents we wanted to avoid having our children passively staring at the screen. We recreated favorite toys from our own childhood and gave them a modern spin that invites active participation and use of logic in a fun stress free setting," explained Marketing Manager George Ene about the company's philosophy. Croco Studio's mantra is to provide opportunities for kids to learn through constructive play.

In addition to the trio of Build and Play 3D apps, Croco Studio has these dynamic early learning apps which support basic preschool concepts and inspire creative exploration:

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Israeli based startup, Lightricks Ltd. today introduces Facetune 2.0, its innovative new image editing application for Apple's revolutionary iPad device. Featuring intuitive and powerful tools previously reserved for the pros, Facetune gives anyone the ability to create high-end portraits from everyday photos. Facetune for iPad offers all the advantages of Facetune for iPhone, but with unprecedented user control, strikingly natural results, and an ease of use never seen before.

Jerusalem, Israel - Lightricks Ltd. today is thrilled to announce the release of Facetune for iPad, an app that gives every user the ability to create high-end portraits from everyday photos, with intuitive and powerful tools previously reserved for the pros. Facetune for iPad offers all the advantages of Facetune for iPhone, but with unprecedented user control, strikingly natural results, and an ease of use never seen before.

"Facetune for iPad is a game changer," says Zeev Farbman, Lightricks' CEO. "Facetune's revolution was offering every user the ability to achieve magazine-level portraits on the go. Facetune for iPad provides a whole new experience, by stretching the limits of technology with a product that's both powerful and approachable."

"The iPad is the ultimate device for photo-editing. It doesn't matter if you shoot with your iPad, or import photos from your phone or professional camera, Facetune for iPad lets you achieve results comparable only to what professionals can do with Photoshop. And it's way more fun."

Facetune is a novel image editing application that uses Lightricks' proprietary LTEngine(TM) and SafeBrush(TM) technologies, which are the basis of a line of exciting and powerful photo editing products for mobile devices. Facetune for iPad was featured as the #1 Best New App on the US iTunes Store, whereas Facetune for iPhone was featured as #1 New & Noteworthy Photo & Video app, was ranked #1 in photo & video in 107 countries, and #1 paid app in 41 countries.

Lightricks simultaneously released a new iPhone version, in which most of the features were upgraded, and several new ones added. There have been major enhancements in every tool, which allow for more powerful and accurate results. The menus now have a totally different look, with safer and quicker import and export. The help system offers beautiful graphics and short video demonstrations of each tool. Users can now apply unique photo textures and localized filters, meaning that each filter effect (lighting, paper and textures) can now be applied in full, or only to specific areas of the photo. In addition to red-eye correction, Facetune can now deal with white-eye flash effects as well.
