Fanurio 3.0 released - Time Tracking and Billing for Freelancers - Published on 12/03/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Fanurio Time Tracking SRL today announces Fanurio 3.0, a major update to its cross-platform desktop application. Fanurio is highly appreciated by freelancers who need to track time, manage projects, and invoice their clients, so that they can get paid for their work. Fanurio 3.0 enables self-employed people to manage most aspects of their businesses like planning tasks, tracking expenses and recording mileage whether it's for billing or for tax purposes.

Craiova, Romania - Fanurio Time Tracking SRL today is pleased to announce the release and immediate availability of Fanurio 3.0, a major update to its cross-platform desktop application. Fanurio is highly appreciated by freelancers who need to track time, manage projects, and invoice their clients, so that they can get paid for their work.

"Fanurio started as an app that made it easier for self employed people to track time and bill their projects. However, many users told us they want to use Fanurio for more than just billing," says Fanurio product manager Nicolae Cismaru. "They told us they want to be able to plan their tasks in detail and to record more information about their expenses while other users told us they need to track individual trips so they can bill their mileage. Version 3.0 is the result of years of feedback from freelancers who rely on Fanurio to manage their businesses."

Fanurio 3.0 has new projects that manage more details than just billing information. Instead of managing a single list of billing items, the new projects manage four lists of different objects, each with its own purpose.

* Tasks can be used to manage work and track time. Tasks have many fields that enable features like task planning, task organization and progress tracking. Users can customize the interface and hide optional fields that are not relevant to them. Because self-employed people don't generally work on complex projects, tasks don't have dependencies, hierarchies or Gantt charts.

* Expenses record money spent for a project. Billable expenses can be billed at their actual cost or marked up.

* Trips can be used to record the distance and time travelled with a vehicle whether it's for billing or for tax purposes. Distances can be tracked in miles, kilometers or both. Multiple rates can be defined for billable trips.

* Products can be used to bill goods and services that are neither tasks nor expenses.

Among other features, Fanurio 3.0 adds:
* Date range invoices
* Non-billable projects
* Non-project invoices
* New time, tasks and sales reports
* Taxes with three decimals

Fanurio uses a powerful template language that can be used to create great looking invoices. Using a customizable template, invoices can be exported to HTML, PDF, Microsoft Word 2007, OpenOffice OpenDocument and other formats so they can be printed or e-mailed.

People who work on more than one computer choose Fanurio over other solutions also because it runs on multiple platforms. Fanurio runs on Windows, OS X including Mavericks, Linux and other flavors of Unix at no extra cost.

Language Support:
* Czech, Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Romanian and Spanish

Device Requirements:
* Mac OS X 10.4 or later (including Mavericks)
* Windows 8 (including 2000, XP, Vista, and 7)
* Linux and Unix
* Java 1.5 or higher (Java 7 recommended)

Pricing and Availability:
Fanurio 3.0 is available from the Fanurio online store for $59 (USD). New users can download a free 15-day trial with all the functionality of the paid version.

New Color 1.0 - An innovative approach to colorization and editing - Published on 12/03/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

New York-based Huntington Phoenix today introduces New Color 1.0 for iOS, their new recoloring tool that adds a fresh look to photos. Designed to change photographs in sophisticated ways without the complexity found in many commercial products, users can colorize and edit images with just a few strokes of a finger. New Color has been optimized to make color selection as simple or complex as desired. Now, everyone can update their images for that perfect shot.

Huntington, New York - Huntington Phoenix today is pleased to announce the release and immediate availability of New Color 1.0, their new recoloring tool for iPad and iPhone devices. Designed to alter photographs in sophisticated ways, New Color has been optimized to make sophisticated looking color changes simple.

By utilizing an innovative scribble technique, users can colorize black and white images or recolor photo images. By simply selecting a color, choosing an object, and then loosely outlining the object with a finger, New Color provides the same results found in many high-end complex programs that most professional graphic artists use.

Feature Highlights:
* Capable of creating partial color photographs using masks
* Simplified drawing tools
* Option of preset colors or creating custom colors using color wheel or sliders
* Ability to change one color or many colors
* Set color saturation levels
* Ability to Zoom using common gestures like pinch and reverse
* Hides lines drawn on the image to provide a better view of work
* Ability to toggle between original and new images
* Save feature that won't overwrite original photo

New Color simplifies the process of updating images for that perfect shot by offering easy-to-use drawing tools. With the Draw icon, users can sketch inside the objects with a finger. Mistakes can be corrected with a simple tap of the Erase selection.

Like many commercial projects, New Color offers users a variety of ways to select color. In addition to preset colors, a color wheel and saturation present a limitless array of custom colors. Users can also utilize RGB (red, green, blue) sliders to fine-tune their color selection. The RGB sliders are predictive, illustrating in real-time what color will be created as the given slider is moved up or down.

"We are using our skills to reinvent software for household use," says Kevin Johnson, President and CEO of Huntington Phoenix. "This concept of reinventing software is so fundamental that even the corporate name incorporates these values by invoking imagery of the phoenix, a mythological creature that reaches a critical point in its life, then burns to ash, only to rise up anew, revitalized and ready for fresh experiences. New Color is our first product to fulfill this mission."

Device Requirements:
* iPhone 4, 4s, 5, 5s
* iPad 2, 3, 4
* Optimized for iOS7
* Runs on iOS6 and up
* 20.9 MB

Pricing and Availability:
New Color 1.0 is free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Photo & Video category. All images created in the free version will include a watermark that can be removed with a one-time in-app purchase for $0.99 (USD).

SavvyDox - Mobile Document Management and Collaboration in a simple app - Published on 12/03/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

SavvyDox today announces SavvyDox 1.3.1 for iPad, PC and Mac - an important update to their simplified Mobile Document Management solution. SavvyDox provides an intuitive user interface allowing team members to effectively manage document version control and easily track changes while creating a collaborative review process that is both parallel and synergistic. Version 1.3.1 features a new iOS7 look, simple account signup, and enhanced search.

Ottawa, Canada - SavvyDox, the popular mobile document distribution platform for businesses everywhere, has recently updated their iPad app to version 1.3.1. In addition to a new iOS7 look, SavvyDox 1.3.1 features simple account signup and and enhanced search that makes it easier for users to collaborate with team members.

SavvyDox allows users to share and review documents among iPad, Windows, and (soon) Mac. Once published, SavvyDox instantly distributes the updated documents for review or collaborative input. Likewise, owners of document libraries in an Enterprise Content Management System can easily share documents with a set of recipients for review or collaborative input.

SavvyDox not only supplies cloud-based version control across multiple devices, it creates page thumbnails identifying specifically which pages have changed, allowing the user to navigate directly to the change. Changes are highlighted on a clean page much more clearly than Microsoft Word's Change Tracking.

With SavvyDox, authors receive compliance-based analytics related to their documents. Not only does SavvyDox report which readers have opened the document, it identifies which pages were viewed by each recipient - a key metric in ensuring successful Quality Assurance, ISO, and Safety programs.

Jeff Burgh, Assistant Auditor-Controller of the County of Ventura concurs. "With SavvyDox, our project team members save meeting time and printing hassles because everyone has the same plan document and associated comments. This saves 10 to 15 minutes per meeting! And that in turn keeps us on budget."

Feature Highlights:
* Instantly displays the latest version of the document without having to search through a complicated folder structure
* Identifies changed pages with thumbnails allowing direct navigation to changes
* Notifies users when new documents are published or new versions are added
* Compares content changes between any two published versions of a document
* Shares reviewer's suggested changes with all other reviewers improving collaboration synergy
* Supports threaded comments in the review cycle
* Provides access to documents whether online or offline
* Facilitates personalization of document filing in collections that are meaningful to the owner
* Supports multiple platforms
* Provides safe, flexible hosting and integration in a public or private SavvyDox cloud

* Requires iOS 7.0 or later
* Compatible with iPad
* 31.0 MB

Pricing and Availability:

SmartDay Adaptive Organizer Now Available on App Store and Mac App Store - Published on 12/03/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Announcing SmartDay - an integrated calendar, journal, task manager, and project planner for iPhone, iPad, and Mac computers. SmartDay automatically schedules pending tasks into the free time in one's calendar and updates them adaptively as situations change. By combining tasks and events into a single time-line view, it's easy to see what can be accomplished by the end of the day, taking the stress out of 'getting things done.' SmartDay synchronizes via its free cloud hub, SmartDay Online.

Seattle, Washington - Announcing SmartDay - an integrated calendar, journal, task manager, and project planner for iPhone, iPad, and Mac computers. SmartDay automatically schedules pending tasks into the free time in one's calendar and updates them adaptively as situations change. By combining tasks and events into a single time-line view, it's easy to see what can be accomplished by the end of the day, taking the stress out of 'getting things done.' SmartDay synchronizes across all Apple devices via its free cloud hub, SmartDay Online.

A Truly Integrated Calendar:
The key to SmartDay is an integrated calendar that displays a proposed agenda for the entire day - fixed appointments and schedules, plus prioritized tasks, even important notes. The calendar adapts effortlessly to shifting priorities, to faster or slower completion of tasks, and even to changes in one's working day ("My afternoon meeting was cancelled - what else can I get done?").

Notes And Journaling:
Notes can be associated with any date by dragging them into the calendar. They can also be linked to other tasks and events - for example, notes from a meeting can be linked to action items from that meeting, and to an upcoming follow-up meeting, for easy reference.

Task Management:
SmartDay's task list features pre-set filters such as GTDo for focusing on the top task from each project. Tasks can be prioritized with quick actions such as 'do today' or 'defer until next week.' Current tasks are then automatically scheduled into the integrated calendar.

Project Planning:
SmartDay offers drag-and-drop project planning in a variety of calendar views - day, week and month. You can drag tasks from the list or from a projects view, directly onto the calendar to create deadlines. Project summaries show progress at a glance.

Same Features, Different Devices:
SmartDay offers the same experience on iPod touch, iPhone, iPad, and all Mac computers, while taking advantage of technologies offered by each. The iOS version allows tasks and alerts to be triggered by location, and offers task sharing via AirDrop. It also integrates with the Maps app for easy driving directions and can even set meeting alerts based on driving time. The Mac version resides on the menu bar and can be docked to the left or right side of the desktop for easy reference while working on other applications. A single click pops open a full-screen week, month, and multi-month planner view. Because it also connects to the OS X Calendar, external calendars such as Google and Outlook can be integrated into the system.

"This release offers SmartDay for the first time ever on iPad," says Managing Partner Michael Jardine. "Because it's a Universal version, that means you can use the same app on your iPhone for the same price. The Mac version is equally ambitious and was over a year in development.

Anytune to Perfect Mac Music Practice with December 8th Launch on Mac - Published on 12/03/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Anytune, the top rated music practice app in the App Store that enables musicians to slow down music without changing the pitch, today announced the upcoming launch of Anytune 1.0 for Mac. Musicians use Anytune to learn to play or transcribe songs by slowing down the tempo, adjusting the pitch, repeating loops, and setting and sharing marks. Soon musicians will be able to use Anytune on their Macs and enjoy the same musician driven feature set that has made Anytune so popular on iPad and iPhone.

Ottawa, Canada - Anytune, the top rated music practice app in the App Store that enables musicians to slow down music without changing the pitch, today announced the upcoming launch of Anytune 1.0 for Mac. Musicians use Anytune to learn to play or transcribe songs by slowing down the tempo, adjusting the pitch, repeating loops, and setting and sharing marks. Soon musicians will be able to use Anytune on their Macs and enjoy the same musician driven feature set that has made Anytune so popular on iPad and iPhone.

"Customers asked us to build a version of Anytune for the Mac." said CEO Tony Wacheski, "Today, we're announcing the upcoming launch of Anytune for Mac on December 8th. It will use iCloud to integrate nicely with our recently updated Anytune 3.9 app for iOS and has the same comprehensive set of music practice and transcription features."

Musicians around the world are currently using Anytune to learn to play, transcribe and practice songs on their iPhones and iPads by slowing down the tempo, adjusting the pitch, repeating loops, setting navigation marks and sharing timed comments.

Anytune for Mac will be immediately familiar to musicians who use Anytune Pro on their iPads. Musical artists now have the same music practice tool set on their big screen devices that they have grown to depend on while using Anytune on their mobile devices. They can search, filter and import their iTunes music or use Anytune for Mac's folders and playlists to organize their music outside of iTunes.

"I hope you will have much success when Anytune Mac launches. It really has the potential to become the standard software musicians use to learn." said Anytune Mac Beta tester and Jazz Musician Sixten Bergman, "Most of the work I do nowadays I do with the help of Anytune. It is an essential part of my way of learning."

The double waveform displays in Anytune allow musicians to visualize and quickly navigate to sections of interest in their songs. High quality tempo and pitch changing let artists practice at their own pace and pitch without unwanted audible artifacts. Loop marks and audio marks used for practicing or transcription can be created and shared via email to collaborate with others, or via iCloud to iPhones, iPads or other Macs.

The innovative FineTouch EQ and built-in presets help to pinpoint instruments for practicing. A LiveMix feature makes musicians feel like they're playing in the band; plug in an instrument or microphone and perform along in a mix with a favourite track. The Step It Up Interval Trainer allows learners to start off slowly and gradually increase the speed over a looped section of a song. For musicians who need to transcribe music, Anytune simplifies transcription work flow by changing play-pause to pause-repeat, allowing a track to be traversed and repeated phrase by phrase more easily and in a more natural way for transcribers.

Anytune for Mac takes full advantage of the desktop bringing a new set of tools proven by over 300,000 downloads of Anytune iOS to musical artists around the world.

Anytune 1.0 for Mac will be available for download in the Mac App Store on December 8th, 2013. A free demo version will also be available.

Language Support:
English, French, German, Spanish, Japanese

Device Requirements:
* Requires a Mac running OS-X 10.8 or later

Pricing and Availability:
Anytune 1.0 for Mac will be priced at $29.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies), and will be available worldwide through the Mac App Store on December 8th, 2013 in the Music category. A free demo version will also be available.

Brush Brush Cocomong: Tooth Care Tutorial for Kids Launch and Discount - Published on 12/03/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

App development team Dudu CS has released Brush Brush Cocomong 1.0.1 for iOS, an interactive app intended to educate children on the virtues of oral hygiene through enchanting, animated entertainment. Once Cocomong is finished eating, children can load up his tooth brush with tooth paste and brush away the germs. On sale now, Brush Brush Cocomong is educational, entertaining, and promotes friendship, cooperation, healthy snacking, and good oral hygiene in a format that children will love.

Seoul, Korea - Brush Brush Cocomong is an interactive app intended to educate children on the virtues of oral hygiene through enchanting, animated entertainment. The app, from the app development team Dudu CS, features the beloved animated character Cocomong.

Cocomong and his friends inhabit a fantasy world inside of a refrigerator. Each of the 11 characters is a fanciful fusion of a cute animal and a food. Cocomong is a monkey/sausage creation, Ahrome is a boiled egg/rabbit mix, and Ohmong is Cocomong's fried shrimp/dog pet. They're joined by Ahgul (cucumber and alligator), Kairo (a hygiene loving horse and carrot combo), and many others!

The friendly little monkey leads children through a step by step tutorial on keeping their teeth clean. The app also features a brushing game: children touch different snacks and move them toward Cocomong's mouth - making him happy, but causing cavity germs to form. Once Cocomong is finished eating, children can load up his tooth brush with tooth paste and brush away the germs. There's an interactive storybook as well, which features optional narration. Flash cards show different hygiene items and invite children to learn the associated words. If they have trouble reading the word aloud, a tap on the speaker icon lets them hear Cocomong pronounce it for them.

Children will most love the full-length animated Cocomong adventure. This 3D animated 12 minute movie shows Cocomong and his friends enjoying sugary snacks together and bemoaning the process of brushing their teeth. Their nemesis, a mold-obsessed mad scientist mouse hatches a plan to get them to give up tooth brushing by chewing gum instead. Cocomong saves the day by activating his robot friend Robocong to brush away the badness.

Brush Brush Cocomong is educational, entertaining, and promotes friendship, cooperation, healthy snacking, and good oral hygiene in a format that children will love. The app's interface is simple enough for very small children to use, and it invites parents to spend quality time teaching their children the value of brushing their teeth after each and every snack.

Brush Brush Cocomong is available now on sale in the iTunes App Store for $1.99 (Reg. $3.99), a great price for an app that will entertain children for many hours with games and animations while teaching them at the same time.

Features:

* Lovable animated characters are modeled after brightly colored animals and plants, and capture your child's imagination.

* Brush Brush Cocomong portrays good oral hygiene as an exciting, fun activity, and one that should never be skipped.

* Interactive flash cards help with reading comprehension, as each card shows the word and can be tapped to hear Cocomong say it aloud.

* Each step of brushing one's teeth is shown in detail by Cocomong; children will look forward to brushing along with their animated friend.

* The story book can be read aloud by parents or children, or read by the narrator

* The brushing game shows children it takes some time to brush germs away to get clean teeth. Practicing on Cocomong's teeth is great practice for brushing their own!

* The video offers a 12 minute episode of Cocomong and his friends!

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch and iPad
* Requires iOS 4.0 or later
* 144 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Brush Brush Cocomong 1.0.1 is $1.99 (USD) for limited time and available worldwide through the iTunes App Store in the Education category.

eXpress2U - Transfer your videos instantly and safely - Published on 12/03/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Wenjoy Technologies today announces eXpress2U 1.3.0, its popular video transfer app for iOS devices. Send videos or any files to friends who has this app installed, as long as you know his cell phone number. No matter how much video you take, you can transfer them out on your own. With its powerful security mechanisms for protection, you can control the videos you transferred. With eXpress2U, the phone number of the other party is all you need to send a file instantly.

Hsinchu, Taiwan - The camera on smart phones, getting more and more advanced by the day, has replaced other regular digital cameras to be the portable camera and video recorder of modern users. When you want to share what you take with your friends, you can use WhatsApp or Line to send photos, although the photo resolution is usually reduced. However, when it comes to sending videos, it's not that easy. Recording with a common 8 mega-pixel camera produces about 70-80 MB in file size per minute. A clip of 5 minutes would need 300 to 400 MB - usually too big to send out using email. YouTube or Dropbox might be a solution, but it's too cumbersome to use for most users. Now, eXpress2U can solve this problem for you. No matter how much video you take, you can transfer them out on your own.

Wenjoy Technologies, an Taiwan-based App software development company which previously released well-known apps that have been download for a combined total of million times - like "OrganiDoc" and "Organic Doc HD" for integrating cloud storage; "xDownload" for downloading videos anytime and anywhere; "shake2u" for Bluetooth/WiFi file sharing upon shaking mobile phones, has again launched a real-time file sharing app on the mobile platform - eXpress2U (X2U).

The major difference between eXpress2U and other general messaging apps (like WhatsApp, Line, WeChat) is that most messaging apps are chiefly for sending text and there are usually various restrictions on sending video. For example, Line only allows up to 1.5 minutes in video length, and the video is compressed. WhatsApp or WeChat has no limit on video length, but the video is highly compressed 70:1 or 80:1. Watching it on the small screen of the phone might be alright, but the resolution is less than acceptable if viewed on retina display or a PC/TV. Of course you might want to upload the video to YouTube, but your friends would only be able to view it on line and cannot save it to his own computer or mobile phone. For some people, Dropbox or Google Drive's file sharing capabilities comes to mind. However, it's usually too complicated for most users to use either file sharing or to send the link for the file. With eXpress2U, the phone number of the other party is all you need to
send a file instantly. You can also see if the other party has started to download the file or if the download has finished.

Another powerful feature of X2U are brand new security mechanisms for protection. Generally, after a user sends out a file via email or other means, there is no way to control the spreading. X2U particularly adds in file protection mechanisms - be it either a file or a photo, you can choose "no protection," "read-only protection," "limited time reading" or "delete after reading." "Read-only protection" means the receiver can only read the file within X2U, and cannot transfer the file to another app to edit, send via email, upload to a computer, or save the picture to Photo Album. "Limited time reading" sets a period of time after which the photo or file will be automatically destroyed, so that you can be worry-free about the information being further disclosed when you transfer confidential files. Importantly, unlike Dropbox or email, X2U never leaves any backup on the server and the files are encrypted in the whole process of transfer, allowing more security.

With X2U, the same mobile phone number can be used to register multiple iPhone or iPad devices. You can conveniently choose to use any of the registered devices to accept or transfer a file. As more and more users have multiple iPhone's and iPad's, there can be inconvenience when you need to transfer files among your own devices. X2U offers a considerate solution - simply install X2U on all devices and use the same phone number to register, you can transfer among the devices easily and the data flow is free of charge. Wenjoy Technologies has always been providing a variety of solutions for documents and files on the mobile platform. This time, with the new eXpress2U services, there is a complimentary capacity of 30 MB for trial usage. Receiving files is totally free. From now on, there are no worries about sending video files to friends. You can record as much as you want.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 4.3 or later
* 11.7 MB

Pricing and Availability:
eXpress2U 1.3.0 is Free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Utilities category.
