Life Career Package; A Mobile App Built to Help Britain's Unemployed - Published on 10/14/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

It's My LIFE ltd today announced that LIFE CAREER PACKAGE 1.0 is now globally available for download on the App Store, Google Play and BlackBerry. The Life Career Package is a specialised, professional application designed as a guide to planning and realising career, educational goal or business plan in modern Britain. The app provides a simple and yet comprehensive guide to employment and new career goals, suitable for use by the whole family, whatever their career position or objectives.

London, United Kingdom - It's My LIFE ltd, a digital career service, today is proud to announce that LIFE CAREER PACKAGE 1.0 is now globally available for download on the App Store, Google Play and BlackBerry. The Life Career Package is a specialised, professional application designed as a guide to planning and realising career, educational goals or business plans in modern Europe.

A major study by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) shows how England's 16 to 24-year-olds are falling behind their Asian and European counterparts. England is 22nd for literacy and 21st for numeracy out of 24 countries. The careers services in schools in England are not working effectively, according to a hard-hitting report from the education watchdog, Ofsted.

The Life Career Package is designed to simplify, explain and guide the user through the complex maze of qualifications, accreditations and legislation that surround pursuing a new career path in Britain. The app provides a simple and yet comprehensive guide to employment and new career goals, suitable for use by the whole family, whatever their career position or objectives.

The app contains simple, easy-to-use colour-coded guides to industry sectors. This enables the user to research and learn more about their specific areas of interest. They may then plan a route to the position they want to reach in three clicks. The Life Career Package explains the certified systems of accreditation which govern access to certain areas of employment and the qualifications and skills needed for professional growth and achievement. It can even help you book your driving theory test or CSCS test within the Life Career Package.

The app also features an efficient, easy-to-use system which guides the user through the notoriously tricky process of becoming self-employed or setting up a business. The app features a guide on how to save money and take advantage of the support and financial assistance available to small businesses. UK entrepreneurs are set to benefit from a further GBP69 million of governmental funding over the coming year; this app ensures that those setting up an enterprise do not miss out on any of the funding to which they are entitled.

The impact of the worldwide recession on the UK jobs market means that it has never been harder to figure out how to start out in a career, to progress in education or business or just to decide how you want your own working life to develop. The Life Career Package helps to solve the problem of setting out in to the working world encountered by those in the 16-24 groups, with a free limited version available to download to give the user the chance to see what an invaluable tool the life Career Package can be!

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later
* 3.2 MB

Pricing and Availability:
LIFE CAREER PACKAGE 1.0 is $1.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Education category.

Puma Launches Innovative New Running App - Published on 10/14/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PUMA International has launched PUMATRAC 1.0.1, a unique running application for the iPhone. Incorporating a user-friendly design with pre-loaded Tictrac technology, PUMATRAC analyses how external conditions affect your running performance. PUMATRAC uniquely uses data available based on specific environmental factors, such as moon phase, weather, location, altitude, music playlist, time of the day, day of week, season and social media activity.

Cupertino, California - PUMA has launched PUMATRAC, a unique running application for the iPhone. Incorporating a user-friendly design with pre-loaded Tictrac technology, PUMATRAC analyses how external conditions affect your running performance. By providing these unique insights into running behaviour, the app is designed to motivate athletes to get out the door and discover ways to get the most out of a workout while having fun along the way.

PUMATRAC requires little to no input of data in order to receive these insights, a differentiation factor from other apps in the market. Instead, PUMATRAC predominantly uses data available based on specific environmental factors such as: moon phase, weather, location, altitude, music playlist, time of the day, day of week, season and social media activity.

It's never ideal to run in poor weather conditions, but what if you knew you run faster when you do? If you run faster in the rain, or for a longer time while listening to Hip-Hop music, PUMATRAC will let you know so you can take advantage of the conditions that work best for you. "Lay off the snooze button, your average speed is faster in the mornings" is just one example of an insight notification a runner may receive. When your run is complete PUMATRAC will show you your score, compiled of your distance, personal insights and weather/time condition bonuses. These insights can be shared with friends and other runners in the region.

Aside from sharing scores, PUMATRAC allows users to share running routes to keep their routines new and fresh. When travelling, the GPS locator within the app shares with you some of the best running routes in your current location.

Runners will also gain insights on their personal running style and can share with friends through social media in real time. PUMATRAC is always thinking about your next step, challenging you to use the insights as incentive to improve your running routines. PUMATRAC also includes the more traditional functions that runners depend on within their running apps: distance, GPS, calories burned, integration with their playlist and tracking performance over time.

"PUMATRAC seamlessly integrates data to deliver personalised, actionable insights, says Karin Baust, Business Unit Manager-Running, Training, Fitness. "We work hard to inspire runners and PUMATRAC is very much a part of that strategy; it's clean, user- friendly and the first of its kind to provide such usable information and all in a unique PUMA way."

E-store integration also enables PUMATRAC users to see some of the latest running products PUMA has to offer, allowing users to click and locate a store near them. With fresh gear, new running routes and inspiration at the palm of your hand, what's stopping you? Get out there and run.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 6.0 or later. Compatible with

Focus on Today with AM-PM Agenda Organizer - Published on 10/14/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Announcing the release of AM-PM, a companion app for SmartDay that displays today's agenda at a glance: appointments, scheduled tasks, even related notes. SmartDay is a free online service that organizes tasks into the free time in one's calendar, showing exactly what can be achieved during the day. AM-PM then acts as a personal assistant, displaying today's items in a format that is intuitive for busy people: AM, and PM.

Seattle, Washington - Announcing the release of AM-PM, a companion app for SmartDay that displays today's agenda at a glance: appointments, scheduled tasks, even related notes. SmartDay is a free online service that organizes tasks into the free time in one's calendar, showing exactly what can be achieved during the day. AM-PM then acts as a personal assistant, displaying today's items in a format that is intuitive for busy people: AM, and PM.

How It Works:

Set up a free account with SmartDay, either online or directly from the AM-PM app.

Use SmartDay to organize tasks from multiple projects into the combined 'smart' list. Apply different filter and sort pre-sets, to instantly prioritize. SmartDay then automatically schedules those tasks directly into an integrated calendar, placing them in the free time between your appointments. Scheduled tasks move adaptively so if you get side-tracked with something else, SmartDay automatically reschedules them for you but in the same order, always showing how much can be accomplished by the end of the day.

On AM-PM, today's agenda items are displayed, in order, in a color-coded list view. Tasks can be marked 'done' on the AM-PM app, and new tasks, notes and agenda items can be added on the fly and sync'd up to SmartDay for auto scheduling, either today or in the future.

"This is exactly what our SmartDay customers have been asking for," says Managing Partner Michael Jardine, "a simple companion that delivers today's meetings, todo's, and notes in a focused format, all at a glance."

"It's also a great introduction to the free SmartDay system," adds CTO James Reynolds, "You can log on to SmartDay from any computer browser, and it's totally free."

The SmartDay system also includes extended-feature SmartDay apps for iPhone, iPad and Mac OS X.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch and iPad
* Requires iOS 6.0 or later
* This app is optimized for iPhone 5
* 5.0 MB

Pricing and Availability:
