Version 4.0 includes an all-new design optimized for iOS 7 and 8, support for the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus, with more new features and books, including "The I Ching Oracle" by Nigel Richmond as a free download, and the return of "The I Ching or Book of Changes" by Richard Wilhelm for additional in-app purchase.

Southborough, Massachusetts - Flat Earth Studio today is proud to announce the version 4 update for the ancient chinese classic, Yi Jing, with an all-new design optimized for iOS 7 and 8, support for the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus, and more new features and books, including "The I Ching Oracle" by Nigel Richmond as a free download, and the return of "The I Ching or Book of Changes" by Richard Wilhelm for additional in-app purchase.

New features include:
* A Search field for finding phrases in the current book
* A hexagram lookup table on the Book index page. Sort hexagrams by King Wen, Fu Xi, Wilhelm or Mandala sequences
* A trigram lookup table on Book trigram pages. Tap the trigram image to view. Sort trigrams by Earlier Heaven or Later Heaven sequences
* A redesigned journal Passcode feature for improved ease of use. It does not lock the entire screen, and instead hides all journal text, with a Lock icon that brings up the unlock screen

This update includes a new pre-installed translation, "The I Ching Oracle," by Nigel Richmond (available as a free download for current users), and a new free download translation, "Navigating Lines" also by Nigel Richmond.

"Two very good books on the I Ching have been out of print for a long time, and will not have been seen by many people consulting the Book of Changes today. One, 'Language of the Lines' by Nigel Richmond, was published in 1977 by Wildwood House and has never been reprinted; the other, also by Richmond, is 'The I Ching Oracle', an A4 comb-bound book published by the author himself in 1985. Two further editions of the latter work were published, but it was a very small-scale affair and probably no more than a couple of hundred copies in total of all the editions of the second book were ever put into circulation.

"Here Richmond has re-interpreted his own approach [from Language of The Lines], expanded it, and tied it closer to the original Chinese imagery. Richmond has the knack of hitting the nail squarely on the head when the book is used in consultation, his work has a Zen-like simplicity and 'cutting through' quality." - Joel Biroco, Yijing Dao web site.

Also, "The I Ching or Book of Changes" by Richard Wilhelm, translated by Cary F. Baynes, Books I, II and III, have been added back for additional in-app purchase. Also, "The I Ching or Book of Changes" by Richard Wilhelm, translated by Cary F. Baynes, Books I, II and III, have been added back for additional in-app purchase.

Butterfly Kisses by Cathy Lane is a visual and audible delight - Published on 11/12/14

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Cathy Lane Studios today introduces Butterfly Kisses by Cathy Lane 1.0, their new children's book for iOS devices. This picture book app is a visual and audible feast for young children ages 4 to 9, and the perfect story to read to them just before bedtime. The story is beautifully illustrated by Cathy Lane with handmade paper sculpture illustrations. The narration by Tracy Mann is delightful and engaging. After the story is finished the reader can participate in some fun educational activities.

Sydney, Australia - Cathy Lane Studios today is proud to announce the release of Butterfly Kisses by Cathy Lane 1.0, their new children's book for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch devices. Butterfly Kisses was originally published 1995 by Margaret Hamilton Books as a hard cover book. It is no longer available in printed form. It was a popular book when it was published and is still in Australian public libraries and school libraries today. This interactive version is completely re-designed for the iPad/iPhone and illustrated with beautiful handmade paper sculpture illustrations.

Butterfly Kisses, those gentle fluttering of eyelashes on cheek, are the ultimate focus of this playful bedtime romp through the animal kingdom. The rhyming words take the reader on a fun journey through the imagination of a little girl. With the tap of a finger the sound effects and animations activate the various animal movements and sounds of their environments. Cicadas chirping, birds calling, tigers roaring! This is the perfect story to read to a young child just before bedtime.

* Original story and fun touch animations all create a warm caring experience for a young child.
* Educational activities at the end of the story; a puzzle which explains how the characters were made, a page where the reader can write their own words for a page for Butterfly Kisses and finally a page where they can illustrate their verse.
* Music arranged and performed exclusively for "Butterfly Kisses by Cathy Lane".
* Realistic animal sounds and background sounds make for a fun audible experience.
* "Read to Me" and "Read by Myself" options.
* Words are highlighted as the story is narrated for clear word recognition.
* Tap the words to hear the narration again.
* The animal sounds and the background sounds can be turned off. This can create more active participation with the child making the animals sounds themselves as they read the story.
* There are arrows on each page for clear navigation of page turning.
* On each story page children are challenged to find the lady beetle. Tapping the lady beetle activates all the animations and their sounds all at once.
* There is a butterfly menu button at the top of each page for clear navigation throughout the app.
* Narrated by well known Australian TV celebrity (see web site for details www.butterflykissesapp.com)
* Member of Moms with Apps- As a Moms With Apps member, we follow 'Know What's Inside' best practices for kids' apps.

Cathy Lane's daughter Alison inspired her to write Butterfly Kisses. Alison was 4 years old when Cathy first introduced her to butterfly kisses. Alison was sitting in bed waiting to say goodnight when Cathy asked her if she would like a butterfly kiss. Intrigued by how this might be possible she said yes! So Cathy fluttered her eye lashes on Alison's cheek. She responded by saying I wonder how other animals might say goodnight. This began the questioning of all her toy animals, who were sitting on the bed, how might they say goodnight? What about Giraffes? Giraffe's would kiss twisting knots in their long, long legs. Cathy immediately wrote a little rhyming poem after she said goodnight to Alison and this is how Butterfly Kisses was born.

Cathy Lane comes from a teaching background and wanted her book app to be used as a classroom resource. She has written and illustrated 3 free educational resource books for parents and teachers to use in conjunction with "Butterfly Kisses by Cathy Lane." They cover writing, drawing and craft activities. They are available in PDF form for download.

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

Pricing and Availability:
Butterfly Kisses by Cathy Lane 1.0 is $2.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Books category. See website for more examples of Cathy's work.

Swipe to favorite and trash your iPhone photos with free app Cleen - Published on 11/12/14

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

From the creator of tapsBook and built specifically for iOS 8 with inspiration by Tinder's cards interface, Cleen provides users a fast, fun, and easy way to manage their camera roll and albums by favoriting and deleting photos all within one app. Users simply swipe up to favorite, down to trash, and left to decide later. The "favorite" ratings are synched with iOS Photo Library and iCloud Drive and users can empty the trash anytime to free up iPhone storage space.

Raleigh, North Carolina - Built specifically for iOS 8 with inspiration by Tinder's cards interface, Cleen provides users a fun and easy way to manage their Camera Roll and albums by favoriting and deleting photos all within one app. Cleen is developed by AtomKnows, the creator of tapsBook, an award-winning iPad photo book app.

"Since launching tapsBook in July 2013, we pioneered the three-way rating system highlighting favorites, keepers and trash with rave reviews from our users," says Xiaohu Yao, creator of Cleen, also the founder of tapsBook. "From user surveys, we learned that our users loved this intuitive and patented swipe-based rating system and wanted the same ability to rate on their iPhones - so we created Cleen for iOS 8 on iPhone."

Features:
* One of first apps to leverage both favorite and delete feature from iOS 8 PhotoKit
* Intuitive swipe up or down (ie. thumbs up/down) to favorite or trash photos
* "Do-it-later" option by swiping left
* Full size image view by long pressing on a photo - see the details before rating
* Easy undo by dragging any favorite or trashed photo back to cards pile

As one of the early app providers to leverage the latest iOS 8 PhotoKit, there are only a handful of apps with similar functionalities, but Cleen offers these key differentiators:

* App is free
* Capability to tag favorite photos - ratings are synched with iOS Photo library and iCloud Drive
* Ability to manage photos in any albums - not just Camera Roll only
* No limitations on photos to review based on time or other dimensions - users can rate continuously
* Grid views of favorited and trashed photos - handy for second thoughts
* Prompt reminder to rate photos - notification will appear when new photos are detected

Cleen's main purpose is to help users find their favorite photos so users can do more (share, print) with them. Analytics from our beta release show that on average, users only trash 23% of their photos. Of the remaining photos, there is a 50-50 chance the photos will be rated as favorites. That is why the focus is primarily on uncovering the best photos.

"The iPhone is now many people's primary camera, making it very easy to take gigabytes of photos and run out of storage space on their phone," says Yao. "We want to help users make every photo count by marking out favorite ones to print or share effortlessly and deleting unwanted photos immediately with a swipe."

Device requirements:
* Compatible with iPhone 5/6
* Requires iOS 7.0 or later (iOS8 to use the advanced data sync with iOS Photo library)
* 3 MB

Pricing and availability:
Cleen 1.0.4 is available for free download through the iTunes App Store in the Photo and Video category worldwide.

Based in Raleigh, N.C., AtomKnows LLC was founded in 2012 with a mission to create mobile apps that would address pain points of people's lives, thereby making a positive on their lives. Its first iOS app, tapsBook, is a powerful cloud-based photo book creation and sharing mobile platform that has already won numerous prestigious awards such as Walgreen's Fall 2013 QuickPrints Developer Contest and the 2014 CES Mobile App Showdown Appreneur Award. In October 2014, AtomKnows began offering the core technology behind tapsBook as a photo book creation and ordering SDK for iOS app developers and photo retailers to provide photo book merchandising options effortlessly. In November 2014, AtomKnows expanded its mobile app portfolio with Cleen, the company's second iOS app and first iPhone app, which features the patented 3 tier swipe-based rating system it pioneered with the tapsBook app. All Material and Software (C) Copyright 2012-2014 AtomKnows LLC.

ValueTag incorporates visual learning robotics and artificial intelligence to view content on the web visually, instead of parsing the underlying HTML code. It sounds a little geeky, but it provides a way shoppers to see best prices when they are browsing a particular store and also knows when product is in the cart to help further by applying auto-coupons in the cart.

No more typing in a search box, ValueTAG automates the search and understands what you're looking for, based on the current webpage or product scanned in-store (no matter what device u are on - Smartphone, web or wearables). It finds the lowest prices, searches for coupons and deals and applies it automatically at the checkout.
