Brainwaves App From The Unexplainable Store Helps Create a Better Life - Published on 02/19/14

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The Unexplainable Store announces their most popular lifestyle app, Brainwaves - The Unexplainable Store for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. This app is developed to help people achieve a desired state by listening to brainwave entrainment audios within it. Currently, these audios fall into 7 categories: Spiritual and Metaphysical, Health & Hygiene, Brain Function, Therapy Recordings, Personal Development, Money and Prosperity and so on. Each recording is tuned for a specific purpose.

Chicago, Illinois - The Unexplainable Store(R) is happy to introduce their most popular lifestyle app Brainwaves - The Unexplainable store for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. This app is developed to help people achieved a desired state by listening to brainwave entrainment audios within it. These audios can stimulate brain with a certain frequency, making brain reproduce the same frequency with its internal rhythm, thus achieving a targeted state. Each recording is tuned for a specific purpose.

The brainwave entrainment audios currently fall into 7 categories: Spiritual & Metaphysical, Health & Hygiene, Brain Function, Therapy Recordings, Personal Development, Money & Prosperity and Adult Subjects.

A brief introduction of part of the audios:
Audios under Spiritual & Metaphysical category can make people experience spiritual and metaphysical things. For examples, Astral Projection audio gives people an out-of-body experience. Lucid Dreaming audio makes one take control of their dreams to change the world around him and enjoys living out a virtual sort of fantasy within his head. Telepathy audio makes people gain the skill to transmit and read others' thoughts.

Audios under Health & Hygiene category provide simple and effective ways for people to live a healthy life. For examples, Immune System audio, using an array of Delta Frequencies that are below 3 Hz, can help immune system become more powerful and allow people to fight off disease. Pain Relief audio eliminates pain by putting people into a blissful relaxed state with a Delta frequency. Headache Remedy audio is a good way to help people getting rid of chronic headache pain. Sleep audio, naturally guiding people from the alpha to theta and then delta brain waves, mimics the natural healthy sleeping patterns and gives people a good sleep.

Audios under Brain Function are good tools to help people explore the potentials of brain. Memory program helps people remove blockages in retrieving memories and strengthen attention span.IQ Increase audio starts off in the Beta range to focus brain's learning process and then stimulate connections between neurons to improve IQ permanently. Language learning audio, mixing Dual frequency Alpha and Delta, is designed for accelerated language retention to drastically improve people's life.

Audios under Therapy Recordings help people get rid of anxiety, depression, addiction and other annoying problem. For examples, Addiction Help audio stimulates the core of people's subconscious by altering the frequencies in people's mind and weeds out the negative footprint left from people's addiction. With a clear consciousness, one will be able to focus on exactly what he really wants without being dragged down. Attention Disorder audio uses a solid Alpha frequency which has been used for Treatment of Attention Deficit Disorder to make people concentrate well. Depression Help audio putting Delta Frequency and Mid Theta tone together, helps scatter depression and fill the body with a renewed sense of drive and renewed hope.

Audios under Personal Development category help people develop their ability effectively and simply. For examples, Leadership audio helps develop the potential of being a leader by using an Alpha Tone to improve alertness and a low Beta Tone to supercharge frontal lobe, which is the decision making portion of the brain. Public Speaking audio uses smooth medley of Delta tones to help brain release the anxiety it has over speaking to help one become a good speaker.

Reviews from users:
"Brainwaves are great and full of soothing music and beats. It features some good functionalities and interfaces you expect, very cool app."

"Useful application! only a few minutes it can relieve my tension, let me very relaxing and then lead me to a deep sleep. It's more useful than drugs. Really worth recommended."

"It stirs a breaking open of the mind; allows the mind to relax and disentangle itself from your pure consciousness and allows you to transcend the limitations of our physical existence. Thank you."

"So glad I found this app. It has worked wonders. Have tried many sound apps and none have worked as good as this one. I use it daily with my kids when they go to sleep and at nap time. They fall asleep quickly and sleep comfortably, waking up refreshed and happy. I also have used it many times when feeling very stressed and just a few minutes of listening change my entire feeling. I would definitely recommend this app to anyone!"

bluejava Announces Fraudulent App Protection for AppSearch.pw - Published on 02/19/14

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

bluejava today announced an enhancement to their popular web app and iTunes alternative, AppSearch.pw. The enhancement bans iPhone/iPad apps which are deemed to be scams from the AppSearch.pw interface, effectively blocking them from users browsing the App Store. AppSearch.pw has helped consumers to search for and discover the apps they want to use while bypassing the need to use the sprawling iTune's interface. Currently the AppSearch.pw "scam app" database lists over 1500 blocked apps.

Yokohama, Japan - bluejava today announced an enhancement to their popular web app and iTunes alternative, AppSearch.pw. Released in October 2013, the app has helped consumers to search for and discover the apps they want to use while bypassing the need to use the sprawling iTune's interface, often criticized for its unintuitive interface, which makes it hard to share links, bookmark pages or even open multiple windows.

The enhancement bans iPhone/iPad apps which are deemed to be scams from the AppSearch.pw interface, effectively blocking them from users browsing the app store -- in contrast with iTunes, where many of these fraudulent apps are still online and taking money from them. Two of the most popular scam methods are:

* Apps with lots of ads and/or in-app purchases, costing as much as $50 or $100 each.
* Charging for an app that simply does not work upon delivery (nor was it ever intended to)

Currently the AppSearch.pw "scam app" database lists over 1500 apps which are now blocked. This list is set to grow, and users of AppSearch.pw can report and recommend apps to be added to the list.

bluejava has compiled a list of ways that iTunes users can protect themselves from unscrupulous scam artists and keep their devices - and money - safe. However, as company director Glenn Crownover states, "the easiest way to avoid being scammed on iTunes is to bypass it completely by using AppSearch.pw". Browse iTunes efficiently, browse iTunes safely.

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Galta Apps today is proud to release Ensemble, an iOS app suite for groups of friends vacationing together. Checked!, Spent! and Scored! make task planning, expense tracking and game scoring a breeze so that friends can focus on what matters most: a great vacation! Checked! takes care of planning and task distribution. Spent! tracks shared expenses and optimises reimbursements. Scored! replaces the paper and pen that always seem to get lost during vacation when you need them to score a game.

Paris, France - Galta Apps releases Ensemble, an iPhone and iPad app suite for groups of friends vacationing together. Checked, Spent and Scored make task planning, expense tracking and game scoring a breeze so that friends can focus on what matters most: a great vacation!

* Checked! takes care of planning and task distribution. As an assignment driven to-do list, Checked focuses on making sure all tasks are assigned and none are left behind. Thanks to Ensemble's automatic sync engine, all friends can participate and add to-dos from their own devices, and get notified whenever one is assigned to them. Seeing who's in charge of what, assigning tasks and tracking their progress have never been easier.

* Spent! tracks shared expenses and optimises reimbursements. Spent's interface focuses on real time input so that people add expenses on the go before details and distribution are forgotten. Thanks to Ensemble's sync engine, all friends add their expenses on their devices, and see others' in real time as they are added. At the end of the vacation, Spent provides an optimised balance report to reduce money exchange and get people reimbursed faster.

* Scored! replaces the paper and pen that always seem to get lost during vacation when you need them to score a game. Scored supports three different calculation modes, and provides an embedded timer, progress charts and multiple leaderboards. By removing the burden of scoring, Scored enables friends to focus on their game and enjoy their time together.

Checked, Spent and Scored are available for free on Apple's App Store. All apps are optimised for iPhone, iPads and iOS 7, localised in English and French, and run on iOS 5 and later. The free versions are full featured but limit the number of participants in each event (2 for Checked, 3 for Spent and Scored). A one-time $1.99 in-app purchase (or equivalent amount in other currencies) removes this limit when needed.

In Melody Panels, the user must listen and watch as patterns are shown and sounds are heard from the colorful grid - the user must then tap that squares corresponding to that pattern - hence repeating the sounds they have just heard, by doing so, the user will progress through a variety of levels - each more difficult than the last.

As of its current release, Melody Panels features 30 different patterns, played upon a 6x4 grid. Despite this, users can also play Free Mode, in-which Melody Panels acts similar to a music toy, allowing users to mimic tunes and create their own patterns.

Melody Panels is score-based and aimed to become a game that is played frequently in short bursts. This is evident due to Melody Panels' focus on scoring, where the user shall earn points when they correctly repeat a pattern.

Users can 'train their musical ear' and increase their tone recognition whilst still being entertained.

'This game was inspired by the movie "Despicable Me 2" and developed with fun in order to give fun with making music, brain training, 26 Panels with different Colors and Tones, 30 Levels and 3 supported languages: English, German and Albanian.' - said Muqa.

* Work your way through a variety of levels, increasing in difficulty
* Repeat patterns on the 6x4 grid
* Universal support on iPhone, iPod touch and iPad
* 30 levels to complete with a built-in Free Play mode

Device Requirements:
* iPhone 4/4S/5/5S/5C, iPod touch (5th generation), and iPad (2, iPad with Retina Display, iPad Air).
* Requires iOS 7.0 or later.
* iPhone 5 compatible.
* 4.2 MB (with the possibility of being altered in future updates)
