Pixite Launches Matter 1.0 for iOS - Embed Unique 3D Objects into Photos - Published on 07/24/14

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

California based Pixite LLC today introduces Matter 1.0, an exciting new photo app for iOS. Matter allows users to add stunning 3D effects to photos with real-time shadows and reflections, as well as export their creations as photos or video loops. Included in Matter are four packs of models ranging from simple geometric shapes to complex, architectural structures. Users can enhance each object by choosing a color and style, as well as import their own textures from the device's Camera Roll.

San Diego, California - Pixite LLC, the team behind four Apple featured apps, released an exciting new photo app called Matter 1.0 today. Matter, the newest addition to the Pixite Creative Suite for mobile photo editing, allows users to add stunning 3D effects to photos with real-time shadows and reflections, as well as export their creations as photos or video loops.

Included in Matter are four packs of models ranging from simple geometric shapes to complex, architectural structures. Users can enhance each object by choosing a color and style ranging from reflective, refractive, opaque, or translucent, while advanced users can import their own textures from the device's Camera Roll.

One of the main features that differentiates Matter is its ability to add shadows to objects in real-time, making photo edits more realistic. Users can fine-tune the shadow's position, opacity, and strength, as well as use the built-in masking tools to erase portions of the model or shadow to seamlessly blend it into the photo's environment.

The unique video export feature allows users to create short animated loops of the object spinning, pulsing, and hovering in the photo. A different effect can be achieved every time by adjusting the rotation speed and direction of the object.

A major hurdle mobile artists face when creating artwork is finding appropriate images to use in edits. Pixite's solution is the new "Free For All" photo browser, which rolls out with Matter. Free For Alls are photos, contributed by artists in the Instagram community, that users can freely edit and share as long as they credit the contributing artist. The "Free For All" photo browser is available by tapping the "Community Photos" button at the bottom of the Matter photo picker.

Pixite will be featuring the top Matter photo edits on Instagram that use the #matterapp hashtag.

The main features in Matter are:
* Four free packs (Primitives, Structures, Poly On Fire, and Organic) of unique 3D objects
* Total of 64 objects that can be positioned, rotated, and scaled to match the background image
* 11 object styles ranging from reflection, refraction, opaque, and translucent
* 63 object color swatches and a custom color picker
* Real-time shadows with adjustable floor, blur, and opacity
* Easy-to-use masking tools for blending objects into the photo's environment
* Save and share as videos with objects animating in the photo
* Save and share high quality still images by email, SMS, Instagram, and other social networks
* Continue photo edits by sending the work to other integrated apps in the Pixite Creative Suite
* Free For All photo browser featuring images, contributed by artists, that can be freely used for photo edits

Device Requirements
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 7.0 or later
* Universal Application
* 26.8 MB

Pricing and Availability
Matter 1.0.1 is $1.99 (USD) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Photo and Video category.

Dance Party takes gaming on Apple TV to a whole new level - Published on 07/24/14

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Rolocule Games today announced that Dance Party for Apple TV 1.02 for iOS is now available for free. Featuring real-time feedback, Dance Party is a multiplayer rhythm game where users mimic the movement of onscreen dancers on TV while rolomotion precisely tracks their iOS devices' movements as they dance. The Edison Award winning motion-tracking technology allows users to play mobile games using natural motion gestures on bigger screens like HD TV, Mac or PC using AirPlay Mirroring.

Pune, India - Rolocule Games today announced that Dance Party is now available to download for free on iPhone and iPod touch from the Apple App Store worldwide. Dance Party is powered by rolomotion� � The Edison Award winning motion-tracking technology for smartphones that allows users to play mobile games using natural motion gestures on bigger screens like HD TV, Mac or PC using AirPlay Mirroring. Dance Party is a multiplayer rhythm game where users mimic the movement of onscreen dancers on TV while rolomotion� precisely tracks their iOS devices� movements as they dance, to provide real time feedback.

On gaming consoles like Wii or Playstation Move, the number of people who can simultaneously play a game physically is often limited - either by the number of motion controllers that the consoles supports or just the physical unavailability of enough motion controllers. In Dance Party, on the other hand, multiple users can connect iOS devices they already own, using Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, and dance together at the same time. Moreover, all personal statistics like calories burnt etc. of each user during multiplayer dance will stay on their iOS device, as opposed to traditional standalone motion controllers that are merely used for detecting gestures.

Dance Party streams to HD TV using AirPlay mirroring and has further reduced mirroring lag giving 2x better mirroring performance as compared to Motion Tennis - company�s first rolomotion� powered game released last year. Moreover, with recent announcement by Apple at WWDC to support Peer-to-Peer Airplay Mirroring with iOS 8, mirroring performance is expected to get even better.

�Mobile games are an isolated experience in our living rooms today. Dance Party provides an opportunity for everybody to have fun together as a group using their smartphones without the need to buy any additional gaming hardware or console,� said, Rohit Gupta, CEO of Rolocule Games. �Dance Party promises to bring the most accurate motion tracking as well as most immersive fun dance experience on iPhone�

In addition to real time multiplayer, Dance Party will also feature turn based multiplayer for local dance tournaments, blind mode for expert dancers, single player mode to just dance and online dance offs. Users can also incorporate the game into their daily workout routines as it tracks the calories burnt per session by day, week and month with impending integration of the newly announced HealthKit in iOS 8. Dance Party is perfect to party with friends, enjoy family game nights, keep a healthy lifestyle or to just dance.

Device Requirements:
� iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPhone 5C, iPhone 5S, iPod touch (5th generation)
� Requires iOS 6.0 or later.
� Requires Apple TV (2nd or 3rd generation). Apple TV requires an 802.11b/g/n wireless network or Ethernet network and a high definition TV capable of 720p
� The game can also be played using Mac or PC with third-party AirPlay softwares like Airserver, Reflector etc.

Pricing and Availability
� Dance Party for Apple TV is Free to download and available worldwide exclusively through the Apple App Store in the Games Category starting 24th July 2014.
� It is localized in English, Chinese (Simplified), Japanese, French, Spanish, Italian, Russian, Portuguese (Brazilian) & German

Clickky invents a new model of mobile ad campaign pricing - Published on 07/24/14

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Clickky brings performance marketing into the mobile ad space, with its brand new CPE campaigns. CPE or cost-per-engagement model means that advertisers define metrics to differentiate the engaged users. It could be anything from completing an in-game tutorial to sending an email. The campaign cost is determined based on the quantity of engaged users rather than clicks or installs. This model helps advertisers acquire new active users rather than increase app install base.

London, United Kingdom - Clickky's CPE campaigns roll out of in-house testing phase, as it announces the model's availability for all advertisers, effective today. Clickky is proud to be the first company to offer non-incentivized app installs priced on CPE basis.

CPE stands for cost-per-engagement and it means that the campaign cost is determined based on the quantity of users who genuinely like an app. An advertiser himself chooses any engagement metric, so the model works for any type of app and game.

Examples of Engagement Metrics include:
* Making an in-app purchase
* Completing an in-game tutorial
* Reaching a certain level
* Sending a message or an email
* Making a photo or video with an app
* Filling in the profile info
* Reserving a hotel room or tickets

The cost per engagement is determined individually for every advertiser with the help of test campaigns. It means that a developer runs a classic CPI campaign to find out the conversion from installs to engaged users and the price of acquiring engaged users. Clickky then acquires new users based on this price.

Thus, advertisers who use the CPE model do not pay for the users who have viewed and clicked a banner or for the users who have installed an app and deleted it right away. They only pay to acquire users who are actually interested in the app. In other words, advertisers do not pay for app installs, they pay for the new active users.

"Our clients are thrilled with the new model," says Clickky CEO and founder Vadim Rogovskiy. "The opportunity to control what kind of users to acquire, helps the advertisers predict the campaign ROI accurately. CPI and other models do not have this benefit. We are proud that we are the first company to offer CPE campaigns to our advertisers. We've got our high quality of our traffic to thank for this, we're confident in our publishers, and know that we're absolutely capable of delivering the results our advertisers are looking for."

The average return of investment in mobile app ad campaigns is increased significantly with the new model introduced by Clickky. CPE campaigns help advertisers acquire users with the highest lifetime value possible. The advertisers' risk is reduced compared to CPI, CPC and CPM models, thus the CPE model introduced by Clickky will become the next standard of mobile app advertising.

MommyMeds App: The Latest Diaper Bag Essential - Published on 07/24/14

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

TTUHSC launches MommyMeds 1.1.2, an affordable perinatal pharmacology solution for iOS and Android. This mobile app gives pregnant and breastfeeding mothers fast, convenient access to up-to-date and evidence-based information about prescription and over the counter medications and their safety during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Mom's can scan the barcodes of thousands of over the counter medications and receive immediate, clear, and easy to understand information on the drugs safety, and more.

Phoenix, Arizona - Breastfeeding and expectant women have a new, cost-effective resource to research use of over-the-counter and prescription medications thanks to MommyMeds(TM). The smartphone app was unveiled today at the 2014 International Lactation Consultant Association Conference.

The app, which is a product of Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center's (TTUHSC) InfantRisk Center, brings mothers access to up-to-date information on medications and their safety during pregnancy and breastfeeding for $1.99.

"This is a landmark day for the health and safety of women with infants, of all economic standing," said InfantRisk Center Executive Director Thomas Hale, Ph.D., R.Ph., one of the world's leading experts in perinatal pharmacology and the use of medications. "The new app makes it possible for moms to have immediate access to the most up-to-date information on medications anytime, and help them make the best possible decisions when it comes to the health of their babies."

Hale, who serves as professor of pediatrics and associate dean of research at the TTUHSC School of Medicine, has spent the past 25 years developing a database of evidence-based information on the use of thousands of medications in pregnant and breastfeeding mothers. Hale's Medications and Mothers' Milk is considered to be the best source of medication information for health care providers internationally. MommyMeds(TM) now makes this essential information available to a global audience.

Resources in the app include:
* Reliable safety ratings and other information on more than 20,000 drugs, syndromes and other products
* Enter a product name, sort by category or scan a barcode to obtain product safety information and determine if it is safe for use
* Major lists of appropriate drugs for various conditions during pregnancy or breastfeeding (headache, nausea, allergies, etc.)
* Recalled product information with push notification ability
* Exclusive promotional specials and coupons for products

"MommyMeds(TM) is vital for pregnant and breastfeeding mothers," said TTUHSC President Tedd L. Mitchell, M.D. "The app could become as synonymous with prenatal care as folic acid and ultrasounds. We commend Dr. Hale and the InfantRisk Center for their significant contribution to the health and safety of women and infants."

More than 4 million women give birth in the U.S. each year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Virtually all of these women will use at least one medication during pregnancy or when breastfeeding. Of these women, 77 percent will initiate breastfeeding and most will use at least one prescription or over-the-counter medication during lactation.

About MommyMeds(TM):
MommyMeds(TM) is recognized as a finalist for the 2013 Fierce Innovation Awards: Healthcare Edition in the category of Health Information Exchange as an innovative, industry-leading product by a distinguished panel of CIOs and other executives from renowned U.S. hospitals and health care systems, including the Mayo Clinic, Boston Children's Hospital and Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center.

It gives iPad and now iPhone users complete access to advanced Google Maps features and functions, as well as several unique customization options. And now with our latest update, we've raised the bar even higher with over 60 improvements and enhancements."
