Award Winning Simplex Spelling Phonics Series Expands With New App - Published on 12/18/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Independent educational software developer, Pyxwise Software today introduces Simplex Spelling Phonics - Rhyming With CVC Words 2.0, their newest children's educational app for iOS devices. Providing 62 instructional lessons, Simplex Spelling improves English spelling and reading skills by using a powerful combination of phonics lessons, rhyming patterns, a unique "reverse phonics" approach and contextually relevant spelling rules. Simplex Spelling Phonics features over 300 CVC spelling words.

Edmonton, Canada - Pyxwise Software today is pleased to announce that Simplex Spelling Phonics - Rhyming With CVC Words has made its debut on the App Store. This new version of Simplex Spelling teaches a full year of kindergarten based spelling and phonics curriculum and features over 300 consonant-vowel-consonant (CVC) spelling words to help build literacy. It provides 62 instructional lessons in phonics and spelling rules. Simplex Spelling is strongly aligned with the US Common Core State Standards for building foundational skills in reading for kindergarten. It helps students piece their spelling words together in a fun and interactive way. Simplex Spelling uses Pyxwise's unique "reverse phonics" approach that acts like a personal spelling coach and guarantees success on every spelling word.

The powerful hint system phonetically sounds out each word while letting the student see all of the possible ways that a word can be spelled phonetically. Each word can be pieced together from its smallest or simplex sounds, and spelling hints and rules are provided to students in context and only as they are needed. Children can easily pick up and use Simplex Spelling as the introductory spelling list contains spoken instructions that gently guide the child through the app's feature set.

Many studies have shown that phonics is a more effective means of teaching spelling and reading than using flash cards and the whole word approach. Simplex Spelling takes phonics education to a new level by combining effective phonics lessons with Pyxwise's unique reverse phonics approach. This comprehensive phonics program is combined with contextually relevant spelling rules and reminders to teach students "How to Spell" English words. Studies have shown that not all good readers are good spellers, but good spellers invariably make good readers.

Pyxwise is devoted to making high quality educational applications. "At Pyxwise our mission is to improve the quality of life of children by empowering them with strong literacy skills," offered Dr. Lisa Welburn.

Simplex Spelling Phonics - Rhyming With CVC Words follows the same award winning Simplex Spelling approach of the other apps in the series that has been critically acclaimed by educators, homeschoolers, parents and the media.

The Simplex Spelling series has won numerous awards including three Academics' Choice Smart Media Awards. One Academics' Choice Award reviewer stated "This app is a teacher's dream. There is not an educational app on the market that is as comprehensive and effective as Simplex Spelling Phonics"

Educational institutions worldwide have been purchasing tens of thousands of copies of Simplex Spelling for use in the classroom, and the apps have been getting great results in helping kids with special needs. Simplex Spelling has also been a popular choice with students that are learning English as a second language (ESL). Simplex Spelling Phonics - Rhyming With CVC Words expands an already comprehensive phonics curriculum that now helps students from kindergarten to grade 5.

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

Splyce celebrates version 2.0 being named App Store Best of 2013 - Published on 12/18/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

After a thrilling first release on the App Store, InQBarna releases Splyce 2.0, a major update adding complex features to their fancy music player with magical DJ powers. Splyce can make you shine as a party host as it synchronizes music & lighting and mixes the songs on your playlist like a real DJ. Splyce 2.0 is a major update for the app and the new features it introduces two new lighting modes, as well as includes two new transitions in the Pro version and so much more.

Barcelona, Spain - After a thrilling first release on the App Store with over 700K downloads, InQBarna launches Splyce version 2.0, a major update adding complex features to this "fancy music player with magical DJ powers." After being for 4 months in the market, Splyce has become one of the greatest music apps on the App Store and Apple has just named it "Best of App Store 2013." Now, the developers want to improve the tool for both beginners and pro users with new sound effects, ability to save playlists, advanced lighting effects and smart seek and song transitions.

"We are delivering what users have been asking for during the last 3 months" says Nacho S�nchez, Inqbarna's CEO, app development company behind Splyce. "After collecting all that feedback we decided to put our efforts on developing the best app our users could dream of. We have implemented the most requested features, so we are proud to say that our users are leading Splyce to become the best music player out on the App Store." adds Nacho.

Splyce is a well designed music player for iPhone that can make you shine as a party host as it synchronizes music & lighting and mixes the songs on your playlist like a real DJ. But you can also use Splyce for your daily commute and it is also a great tool for workouts as you can set the rhythm and make your music follow the rhythm you want. Ideal for runners, spinning sessions and all kind of fitness activities, it will help you train your body&soul in a whole new music experience.

Splyce 2.0 is a major update for the app and the new features it includes will bring thousands of hours of joy to its users. The most requested feature until the moment was the ability to save different playlists, so developers came up with Splycelists. Now users can set a new playlist every time they want and they can save, load and edit those Splycelists that include not only the songs, but its settings too: mix mode, song length, mixing time, etc. With the Splycelists anyone can have several playlists for partying, working out, commute, working... and start acting like a real DJ with Splyce.

Users will also have the ability to use the brand new smart length & duration engine. "We have received a lot of feedback from users asking for some extra magic within the app to skip directly the boring parts of the songs and listen only to the hot parts of each track. And that's why we have developed this feature that anyone can enjoy". You just select the songs and Splyce will do the magic for you. There is also a smart seek feature that will allow you to seek through the app in a smart way, that means that you choose the point of the song where you want to seek and Splyce will automatically identify the beat that best suits the transition. "People will start going back and forward on the same song because it's magical. You can really feel the power of a DJ with just one finger. Easy, powerful and cool, that's the app we want to offer to our users" Nacho claims.

But Splyce 2.0 has a lot more to offer: users can now get new Philips hue effects when synchronising the app with their Philips' Hue led bulbs, and that is an amazing work. Feeling how the music and light effects work at the exact same beat is a real revolution for simplifying things when it comes to organising parties.

In order to make life easier to their users, developers have grouped all features in 3 categories: Fancier, Pro and Premium. "We believe that the Freemium model is the one that best suits Splyce, but we will continue adding new features and we want to keep it simple for our users, so we have grouped all features in 3 upgrades, you buy it once and you get all new features for free" says Inqbarna CEO. At this point, you can find:

Fancier In-App Upgrade:
* Song artwork in lock screen
* 3 new color themes
* Philips(R) Hue lights support (bulbs sold separately)

Pro In-App Upgrade:
* Audio FX (echo, flanger, phaser and filter)
* 4 new transitions between songs
* BPM ordering of your music library

Premium In-App Upgrade:
* Splycelists
* Smart length engine

Full Experience Upgrade:
* Live the Splyce experience to the max and save some money with the full pack

With all this add-ons, Splyce is the perfect tool when it comes to listening to music. With a powerful music engine that developers keep evolving, you can get a new experience every time you open Splyce. But Splyce's roadmap does not end here, for 2014 Inqbarna wants to focus on the social skills of the app, empowering Splyce as a music discovery platform.

Splyce will change your music experience:
* As your everyday music player: enjoy your favorite music in a better way

Kingdom of Pirates 1.4: Endless Fun with the New Features and Activities - Published on 12/18/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Toivon Software Studio today announces Kingdom of Pirates 1.4, an update to their popular popular MMORPG for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. The bravest pirates set off on search of a lost treasure, laying waste to all who cross their path. The pirate officers can seize riches, join forces with others, and dominate the high seas. This is another big update to the multiplayer strategy game by Toivon Studio. With new features and activities, the new version is much more challenging and fascinating!

Shanghai, China - Kingdom of Pirates 1.4 is available now with new features and activities! The new version is much more challenging and fascinating! This is another big update to the multiplayer strategy game by Toivon Studio. The bravest pirates set off on search of a lost treasure, laying waste to all who cross their path. The pirate officers can seize riches, join forces with others, and dominate the high seas.

A completely new feature, called Guild Tourney, will kick off in Kingdom of Pirates 1.4. It gives the chance for the guilds to climb up the leaderboards! A guild leader, officer or veteran can enroll their guild for the Guild Tourney. The system will pick out qualified guilds to enter: those are only the top 24 honor ranking guilds which were registered during the enrollment period. After enrollment, each guild can assign up to 9 members to challenge counterparts of the competing guild. Each round consists of 9 battles. In the first 8 battles, each guild will attack first in four random battles respectively. For the 9th battle, the system will randomly decide which guild can attack first. The combined results of all battles will determine the winner of the round. The guild with higher total rises up the leaderboard.

In addition to the exciting battles, a new Guild Market will also open in the new version. A variety of rare items can be acquired there. For each donation to the guild, the players will get many Guild chips. Those can be exchanged for needed items in the Guild Market. Most importantly, Amethyst from the remote island of Nonnia can be bought at the Guild Market. If the players can gather 200 such stones, a new extremely powerful pirate officer will join their team. This is the Eccentric Captain Neo. He was born on the island of Nonnia, and left his home in search for power and glory. This new officer is also one of the new features of the new version 1.4. However, only 9 Nonnian Amethysts per day can be purchased. There are quotas for all the types of items. And it is only the daily quotas that stops the players from taking all they need to become the most powerful pirates in the seas!

In Kingdom of Pirates version 1.4 there is a new way to make your officers much stronger than before. Except for upgrading their equipment or forging a better one, players can also imbed magic stones to their officer's magic matrix. Only one magic stone of each type can be imbedded. There are magic stones of four levels - green, blue, purple and orange. Those can also be upgraded up to level 12, but they can never turn into more powerful stones of another color.

The Magic Stones can be acquired from the Magic Island - another innovation in the game. Only there, a magic circle can be found. When they activate the circle, players can receive magic stones in return for gold money or rubies. There are five pillars of the magic circle, and each pillar offers better rewards than the previous one. A special magic bag holds the magic stones. When it is too full, the player can choose to enhance a stone, for which other unused magic stones should be consumed. Special enhance stones can significantly raise the stone's level.

Kingdom of Pirates 1.4 will feature a new daily activity - Flash Mode. A special type of items can drop from the Flash Mode. These are the magic stone fragments, which can be exchanged for magic stones. In the Flash Mode, there are three difficulty grades. Players need to complete all the challenges in a certain grade, so that in the end they can collect all the rewards. If the day finished before all challenges are completed, players can't collect any rewards from the challenges which were already passed - everything, or nothing.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad
* Internet connectivity required
* Requires iOS 4.3 or later
* 53.9 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Just in time for Christmas, Kingdom of Pirates 1.4 is Free. This entertaining multiplayer strategy game is available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category. It is advertisement-free and offers in-app purchases.

Lick adds voice to your camera - Published on 12/18/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Scrambled Eggs Pte Ltd today introduces Lick 1.1.1, their new productivity app developed for iOS devices. Lick adds an extra dimension to photos you take, voice. Users can easily annotate photos with important information like price or name of the object they're capturing. With one magical gesture, users hold the mic to record their voice note, and release it to take their picture. Voice note and picture are instantly combined into a Lick, to be saved for future reference or sent to a friend.

Manila, Philippines - Scrambled Eggs Pte Ltd, a consumer app startup, today is proud to announce the release of Lick 1.1.1 for iOS, an app that adds an extra dimension to photos you take, voice. Its strongest use case remains to be seen but the ability for users to annotate photos with important information like price or name of the object they're capturing, makes a lot of sense. And an interesting gesture on Lick, 'hold to record voice and release to take picture' lets users record a vote note and take a picture almost simultaneously. Useful for anyone on-the-go wanting to make a quick record of something they're looking to buy or stumbling across something that's noteworthy to them.

Why not just use video? The founder of Lick argues that he's never seen anyone record a video of a stationary object to make a note of it. That would be weird and that's why Lick combines voice note with static image. He adds that a Lick is also 10% the size of a standard video file so sending and receiving Licks is far quicker than transfer of video, it's almost instant.

Why not use text as opposed to voice? 'Text is slow and people stumble with it' says the founder. Voice is fast and natural. It also adds room for authenticity if users intend to send a lick to their friend.

Lick could've been another messaging app but it chose not to be. Early beta testers were noted for using the front camera on Lick to combine selfies of themselves with voice messages for their friends. Users would then send these licks via Whatsapp, Wechat and Instagram (all integrated into the app) to their friends. This could prove to be a missed opportunity but for now the founder thinks that people are tired of creating new accounts and rebuilding their networks on every new app they install so why not just integrate with existing apps to export licks to? It will be exciting to see what direction and trajectory that Lick takes.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 6.0 or later
* 7.3 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Lick 1.1.1 is Free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Productivity category.

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Paris based app studio, Appakabar today announces the second anniversary of Makanim - Multi-touch Generative Art, its popular entertainment app for iOS. Makanim is a particle generator with live editable parameters that enables anyone to create endless combinations of visual effects. Downloaded 260,000 times, this app appeals to artists, designers, musicians, speech therapists alike. Makanim was recently updated to take advantage of the HD Retina Display and vivid colors.

Paris, France - Appakabar today is pleased to confirm the success of Makanim, their multi-touch app for making animations of colored shapes, developed for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch devices. For two years, Makanim is a great success - the app has been downloaded 260,000 times, with a global rating of 5/5 in the US, and has more than 200 enthusiastic reviews.

The app comes with plenty of basic templates and options to play with. There are thousands of potential combinations, and all of them are impacted differently by the interaction of the user.

On the first screen 48 presets can be previewed with an iphone-like pagination. The presets are animated and easy to visualize. When one is selected, a new screen appears where the animation is auto played.

In the main screen, the animation itself takes place. The menu bar at the bottom of the screen enables real-time edition of seven parameters. There are two popups and controls on iPad, and one on iPhone/iPod touch. When the user open a popup, he chooses between seven parameters to change the associated control: animation mode, start color, end color, shape, size, speed and chaos.

Four parameters control the visual appearance of the animation. The shape option defines the form of each of the particles emitted. There are many shapes provided, from snow flakes, hearts, arrows, and many others. Next, starting color and ending color can be adjusted. Some of them aren't just a single plain color, but rather a set of colors. The starting color option is used when a particle has just been created, while the ending one will be used the moment before it disappears. The size option adjust the dimension of each shape.

Three parameters adjust the motion of the animation: the animation mode option permits to choose between the calculation method, while speed and chaosadd dispersion to the animation.

In the options, Menu opacity enable to adjust the transparency of the menu bar in the animation page and the Expert mode allows to hide the menu bar and play with full screen by using shortcuts.

Makanim permits to make screenshots, stored in the photo library, or to project animations on an external display using a HDMI or VGA adapter (VGA/HDMI output is only available from iPad 2 and iPhone 4S). The app also works with AirPlay Mirroring for the particles to move around on a big screen.

Relaying on its graphic and development experience, Appakabar Studio wanted to do something simple and easy to use, with numerous graphic possibilities. The controls are editable in real-time. The handling of the colors is not as usual the three sliders Red, Green, Blue, but a simple select list of pictograms that represent tints or mix of tints. The same type of control is used for the shape and the mode. It's an app that truly takes advantage of the touch screen. For exemple, the more fingers you place, the more particles are generated and effected.

Version 1.9.7 updates IP to county and MAC to vendor databases, adds various speed and stability improvements and brings the new icon and slightly updated user interface. All the companion apps from the Happymagenta set of networking tools are also updated with this update.

Whether there is a need to scan a local or a wide area network, to find all connected computers and devices on LAN or Wi-Fi, to dig all the available info about anything on the Internet, to test a firewall, web site, to trace a network path or to ping, to remotely wake a Mac or a PC, or just to quickly fetch and share network info, Scany comes in handy - it provides a wide range of possibilities, especially for power users, professional network engineers, system administrators, software developers, web masters and casual users alike to survey, investigate, maintain, test, protect and secure their home and office networks, servers, computers, firewalls, and to resolve network issues.

"The Scany was developed from the ground up using our own algorithms, a result of our over 25 years of experience in networking and software. Originally created for our set of high-load, heavy-duty server software, they gave us much flexibility on a mobile platform. One of the first networking apps specially crafted for iOS, it was developed and polished for years, and the result speaks for itself." - says Pavel Ahafonau, the developer and founder of Happymagenta.

Every single tool, included in Scany, is a way better that any standard or ordinary tool available. Scany always finds and digs more data and info, does it in a more intelligent way, and is easier to use. There is no need to mess with complex tools options and setup, or command line shell interface - it just works, out of the box.

The network and port scanner digs more and faster, understands all of popular network naming protocols for Mac, PC and devices. WHOIS knows all Internet address spaces and all domain zones known to date, including internationalized domain names. Wake on LAN feature is equally effective on both LAN and the Internet. Traceroute traverses to the destination faster, monitors the whole path. All of that and even more is bound with a sleek and simple, uncluttered interface.

* Network scanner, scans LAN and the Internet
