Bad Driver Database Allows Good Drivers to Voice their Frustration - Published on 08/30/14

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Bad Driver Database 1.4 by Facile Group is a new iOS and Android app that lets users instantly input and see how many times a careless, reckless or just plain stupid driver has been added to the database. Plus users can search their own license plate to see if they need to brush up on their driving skills. Users see how many times that particular bad driver has been flagged by other users; which is a good way to see if the mistake is just a one-off, or the act of a habitually terrible driver.

Cupertino, California - Guys who park their souped-up monster truck in two - sometimes three - parking spaces. Ladies who believe that their rear-view mirror is more useful for applying mascara than seeing what or who's behind them. Oblivious drivers that go 10 miles under the speed limit with cars stacking up behind them. And lest we forget: folks who might as well uninstall turn signals because they don't know how to use them. These are just a few examples of the many, many drivers out there whose days of carelessness, recklessness and sheer stupidity behind the wheel are numbered, thanks to the ingenious new iPhone an Android app Bad Driver Database by Facile Group.

Here's how Bad Driver Database works: rather than getting enraged or possibly putting themselves in harm's way, users who spot a bad driver simply input that bad driver's state and license plate number into the app. Absolutely no personal information is captured or transmitted (either the user's or the bad driver's), ensuring bad driver's can be reported without sharing sensitive data. Driver's should ensure they access Bad Driver Database safely when their vehicle is parked, or alternatively a passenger can enter details on-the-move.

Instantly, users see how many times that particular bad driver has been flagged by other users - which is a good way to see if the mistake is just a one-off, or the act of a habitually terrible driver. And even more importantly, users help the community of safe, sane and considerate drivers hold bad driver's accountable for their inconsiderate, or at worst dangerous, decision-making behind the wheel.

Plus, users can search their own license plate to see if they've been added to the database, which can help them see if it's time for a little - or perhaps a lot - of road re-education.

"We created the Bad Driver Database to give all of the good drivers out there a powerful way to voice their frustration with bad drivers, but in a way that avoids road rage incidents," commented Mitch Jansen. "Even good drivers can sometimes make mistakes, the app also helps them see how many times they were caught making bad driving decisions."

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

Pricing and Availability:
Bad Driver Database 1.4, the ingenious new app from Facile Group, is Free and available worldwide through the App Store in the Reference category. There is also a version for Android-enabled smartphones on Google Play.

Innovative App Funky Bots Lets Kids Create Their Own Space Robot Dance - Published on 08/29/14

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

FB LLC proudly announces the release of its innovative new kids app that allows players to create their own space robot dances and set them to swipes and taps. Funky Bots creator Rosa Mei developed the app around the concept of open-ended play for kids. The robots are part of an interactive animated music video featuring eight original tracks by Ethan Beatz and French beatboxer Teddy Guilbaud. Perfect for all ages, the app lets kids play with dancing bots and create their own funky robot dances.

Raleigh, North Carolina - Funky Bots LLC today proudly announces the release of its innovative new kids app that allows players to create their own space robot dances and set them to swipes and taps. Funky Bots creator Rosa Mei developed the app around the concept of open-ended play for kids. The robots are part of an interactive animated music video featuring eight original tracks by Ethan Beatz and French beatboxer Teddy Guilbaud. Perfect for all ages, the app lets kids play with dancing bots and create their own funky robot dances.

With this innovative new app, kids can explore the cool Funky Bots universe and play with dancing robots who know how to groove. They create their own dance moves for Kamky, Tekzilla, Uncle G and other members of the Funky Bots crew and set them to swipes and taps. They choose the perfect soundtrack to match their dances, all the while keeping it fresh and funky.

This new app by Funky Bots LLC is also called "Funky Bots." Choreographer Rosa Mei created the app and based all the eight members of the Funky Bots crew (cartoon space robots) on her real life dance company and family. "All the FB characters really are family to me. The guys in my dance company - poppers, bboys, beatboxers and rappers - have performed with me all over the world for 10 years now. Those are the characters Uncle G, Kamky, Champion and Boom Chak. They are my crazy bros. Tycho and Tekzilla are my twins who are now almost 2. My husband was a competitive skateboarder as a kid so I named his bot Thrasher in honor of the epic skate magazine. And I am Mz. Erratik because I am nothing but..."

Mei wanted to create an app with open-ended play. "I really hope the kids who play with Funky Bots will make up wild, crazy dances for every swipe and tap. They can make robot heads orbit around the body. The bots can move tai chi slow or spaz out and freak the beat. There are endless possibilities for play, and the kids can get so much effect by just rotating an arm angle, changing the movement of the hips or varying the tempo of the movements. They can also play with the monitors on the spaceships and make rockets fly. I hope kids have a lot of fun with this app."

Funky Bots features eight original sound tracks by French beatboxer Teddy Guildbaud and Congolese sound producer Ethan Beatz. The music is not the typical stuff you find in kids apps. The first track "Galactic Funk" for example, is a funkstyle remix of the kids classic "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star." Says Mei, "Kids like being cool and hip. Hip and funny is key."

As the Funky Bots hop from planet to planet, players can watch Uncle G practice his moves on his spaceship then zoom in the monitor to see Mz. Erratik dancing at the shopping mall in outer space. Tapping and swiping the screen triggers new robots dances in a cool, intergalactic playground.

Features:
* Cool, funky robots dancing in outer space
* A dance editor that lets you create your own dances for all the Funky Bots and set them to swipes and taps
* 8 original soundtracks featuring cool funk style music, beatbox, flute and sax
* Perfect for kids of all ages: toddlers can play with dancing robots and older kids can create new dances, endless possibilities
* No third party ads or in-app purchases

Funky Bots is the second app by Rosa Mei, whose goal is to create a suite of apps that show kids how to "feel the beat and dance forever." Their first app BoomKLAKers, made for toddlers, was featured in the App Store as Best New App in 108 countries and also went to #1 in 23 countries.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 6.0 or later
* Optimized for iPhone 5
* 46.0 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Funky Bots - Dancing Space Robots 1.0 is $2.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Entertainment category.

Lazy? Stop scrolling for ages to access your best iPhone pictures - Published on 08/29/14

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Zurich based Roundsight LLC today introduces Photohook 1.0.0, their new app that lets you choose which photos on your iOS device should remain directly accessible, no matter how many other pictures you shot in the meantime. And the best is that you also get access to all the pictures taken just before or just after the selected special photos. Don't scroll or search endlessly. Instead, jump directly to the pictures you took at your most special moments.

Zurich, Switzerland - Are you tired of scrolling and searching to access your special iPhone photos again? Do you think it is not fun to create lots of albums? Use Photohook, the app giving you the simplest and fastest access to your preferred photos and to the ones that were taken at the same time. When something special happens and you take pictures, as time goes they sink deeper and deeper among all the others stored on your device. Developed by Roundsight LLC, Photohook lets you jump directly to the photos you want to preserve. No matter how long ago they have been shot. With Photohook, you organize your few very best photos without feeling it.

Simply and quickly decide which photos should be saved from slow disappearance through sinking at the bottom of the library:
1. In the Photohook app, tap on a picture to preserve it
2. Later, easily jump back to that picture any time you want
3. Access the pictures taken before or after the destination picture too

When looking at photos, Photohook lets you move your device to the left or to the right in front of your eyes to see other parts of the picture, thereby simulating a bigger virtual image (gyroscope-based movement tracking). If you do not want to move the iPhone in front of your eyes, you can choose to rely on the usual pinch and drag gestures to decide which parts of the picture you want to see. Direct map access is provided for geotagged photos.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 7.0 or later

The app starts with short letter mini games where kids can put together words using its parts. Once the words are completed, the lovable wonsters will come on screen and perform funny skits that illustrate the meaning of the words, much like the way the Sesame Street puppets do on TV.

"One pervasive problem Wonster Words address is that, while these academic topics are typically taught to 5 year olds, most apps targeting these skills have game plays that don't engage 5 year olds," said Andrew Kao, Co-founder, 77SPARX Studio. "In Wonster Words, we have spent considerable time tuning both the game play and the animations to ensure that they are entertaining and fun for kids aged from 2 to 6."

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

Pricing and Availability:
Wonster Words Spelling with Phonics 1.68 is Free to download, with option to purchase additional content or subscription from within the app, and available worldwide through the App Store in the Education category. Wonster Words is also available on the Google Play, and Amazon market. For more information about the company and its philosophies, please visit 77SPARX Studio online.

iPad Air Counter-Top and Wall Mounts With Apple Store Look - Published on 08/29/14

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

newMacgadgets today introduces an all acrylic counter-top and wall mount displays for the iPad Air. Both are designed in clear acrylic to enhance the look and feel of the new iPad Air. Full-access is available to the touch screen, on/off switch and charging port. The charging cable secures underneath the base and routes out the back for a professional look. The displays are now available in both secure for business and non-secure for the home.

San Diego, California - newMacgadgets has released their new Apple Store Displays for the iPad Air. Available in two models; a secure and non-secure (for home use) counter-top model, which replicates the Apple store acrylic display, and a stylish wall mount frame. Both are designed in clear acrylic to enhance the look and feel of the new iPad Air.

Counter-Top Model:
Designed for places where security is a concern, the all acrylic tapered counter-top display combines security with the elegance of the Apple store. Newly designed miniature stainless steel brackets secure the iPad Air within the pocket allowing for better security and a cleaner look. They have also included a home-button guard bracket for applications that require continuous running. Our iPad Air Mount secures to any counter-top with either clear adhesive strips or screws (both included).

Full-access is available to the touch screen, on/off switch and charging port. The charging cable secures underneath the base and routes out the back for a professional look. We also offer a non-secure version of this Base for home use.

When secured to the wall the iPad Air conceals the mounting screws to prevent removal (mounting hardware is included). Depending on the user's preference, the mounting frame can be positioned in either the landscape or portrait position.
