HoudahGeo 4.1 - Photo geocoding and geotagging solution for Mac - Published on 04/14/15

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Houdah Software today announces HoudahGeo 4.1, an upgrade to its one-stop photo geocoding solution for OS X. HoudahGeo "pins" photos to locations where they were taken. Just like a GPS-enabled camera, HoudahGeo embeds latitude, longitude and altitude information within the image file. HoudahGeo can load images from iPhoto, Aperture and Lightroom libraries. HoudahGeo 4.1 can now also use photos from the new Apple Photos media library.

Luxembourg - Houdah Software today is proud to announce the release of HoudahGeo 4.1, a one-stop photo geocoding and geotagging solution for Mac OS X. HoudahGeo "pins" photos to locations where they were taken. Just like a GPS-enabled camera, HoudahGeo embeds latitude, longitude and altitude information within the image file. HoudahGeo writes industry standard EXIF, XMP and IPTC tags.

HoudahGeo can load images from iPhoto, Aperture, Lightroom as well as the new Apple Photos media library. Upon geotagging images, HoudahGeo can notify iPhoto and Aperture Places of the newly added metadata. It is however currently not possible to update location information stored in the Apple Photos media library. We recommend that you geotag your photos before importing them into the Photos library. Please refer to the "Houdah Software Tips & Tricks blog" for a detailed workflow.

As a one-stop geocoding for the Mac, HoudahGeo caters to two very different needs:
* Geotagging for archival purposes using EXIF, XMP and IPTC tags
* Geocoding for publishing to Google Earth, Flickr, EveryTrail or locr

HoudahGeo can publish GPS tracks and photos to Google Earth: see your photos in context along the path you travelled. Geotagging is essential for professionals who need to know and show where photos were taken. It really shines when documenting travel. Image a Safari. Animals roaming in the middle of nowhere. Driving all day to capture the best moments. Return home and see a birds-eye view of your journey. Locate the exact tree that leopard was perched in.

HoudahGeo offers a myriad of ways to geocode photos:
* Automatic: Matches photos to GPS track logs and waypoints
* Reference photos: Matches photos to reference photos taken using iPhone
* Using a map: Pick locations using the built-in maps
* Using a Google Earth: Point to the desired location
* Precision: Attach photos to GPS waypoints
* Manual: Enter coordinates found on Google Earth, Wikipedia, ...

HoudahGeo 4.1 includes the following enhancements and fixes:
* HoudahGeo can now access images in the Apple Photos media library
* HoudahGeo automatically offers to notify iPhoto / Aperture upon EXIF / XMP export
* MapBox maps in HoudahGeo look even better than ever before
* HoudahGeo can now handle NMEA track log files with a .txt extension

System Requirements:
* Mac OS X Version 10.8 through 10.10
* Digital camera
* Optional GPS track logger
* Optional iPhone or GPS-enabled camera
* 39 MB of disk space

Pricing and Availability:
A full-featured trial version is available. Licenses can be purchased from the Houdah Software store. HoudahGeo 4.1 is priced at $29 (USD) for a single-user license. A family license is available for $44.

The new version also significantly improves compatibility with other drawing apps, adding support for importing PDF, AI and EPS documents. In addition, PaintCode 2.3 supports copy & paste from most other popular drawing apps on Mac.

Kim Jong-Un Kills Zombies in This Weird Game with North Korea Army - Published on 04/14/15

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

California based PixelPupGames today introduces Kim Jong-Un Run 1.0, a hilarious new game available for iOS and Android devices. US black-ops have unleashed a evil strain of a virus code-named "The Zombama Virus" within the North Korean army's ranks and has spawned a mass of mindless, flesh-hungry zombies upon Pyongyang. Help Kim Jong-un battle his way through hoards of Zombamafied enemies while dodging nukes and tanks of the South Korea in this epic battle.

Los Angeles, California - PixelPup Games have now announced the launch of their new hilarious game called Kim Jong-un Run or just Kim Jong Run for short. The vision behind this game was to make people laugh and give them hours of competitive fun. PixelPup believes that this game will be a classic breakthrough in the mobile gaming industry. The spokesperson (or "spokesdog") for PixelPup Games spoke about Kim Jong Run in an official statement.

"Here at PixelPup, we love a good laugh and what can make you laugh better than a bobble-head Kim Jong-un running from Barack Obama zombies while dodging American nukes and tanks? With the release of the famous Hollywood comedy The Interview, we got the inspiration for this game! Kim Jong-un Run will you give you hours of addictive gameplay... And hopefully we won't get any threats from certain administrations for launching this game!"

The plot revolves around a battle between Kim Jong-Un and the American army. US black-ops have unleashed a evil strain of a virus code-named "The Zombama Virus" within the North Korean army's ranks and has spawned a mass of mindless, flesh-hungry zombies upon Pyongyang. With his army turned against him, the Supreme Leader of North Korea, the successor of Kim Jong-il has no idea what to do and as anticipated, he makes a run for it. It is up you, the player to help Kim Jong-un battle his way through hoards of "Zombamafied" enemies while dodging nukes and tanks of the South Korea in this epic battle.

Players control the funny, caricature like and corpulent Kim Jong-un to run in the street while killing zombies, battling tanks and chasing girls. The game is described to be an action-packed and fun-filled ride that will give the players nothing but utter enjoyment and bouts of unstoppable laughter. The game boasts a very sleek user interface and is very easy to use with considerably simplified menus. Players will especially enjoy Kim's ability to instantly power up into his god-like form: Super Kim. Apparently, Kim is a die-hard fan of the cartoon series "Dragon Ball Z" and has invested billions in his secret lab and team of scientists that has christened upon him the same super-saiyan abilities as Goku.

Beta testers describe Kim Jong-un Run as a "Super fun and hilariously addictive game." Here is what another user had to say about this game on the official PixelPup website "This game still makes me laugh every time I play it."

PixelPup takes great pride in this new game and believe that it will be a big hit. They state their next goal for achievement to be a platformer version of the Kim Jong-un Run. They have now set up their crowd funding campaign for fans to help them in this mission. After the raising of sufficient funds from fans and supports, the players of Kim Jong-un Run will not only have this game on their mobile devices but they will also have it available as a platformer version on their desktop PCs and eventually consoles.

The platformer version is stated to be an improved and expanded world based on the mobile game with more abilities, more enemies, more levels and twisted storyline. PixelPup studios are now looking for contributions from lovers of Kim Jong-un Run so they can successfully launch a platformer version of the game for an even better and more enjoyable user experience.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone 3GS, 4, 4s, 5, 5s, 6, 6 plus, iPod touch and iPad
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later
* 19.4 MB

Pricing and Availability:

Casselberry, Florida - Econ Technologies has released ChronoMonitor 1.1 for the iPhone featuring push notifications and a streamlined user interface. ChronoMonitor is an iPhone app that allows you to instantly receive notice of ChronoSync backups and synchronizations while you're anywhere in the world. ChronoSync is the complete Mac backup, bootable backup, and folder synchronizing app. ChronoMonitor is available in the Apple App Store for $3.99.

ChronoSync sends push notifications directly to ChronoMonitor on your iPhone in near real time. Your phone will chime and the message will appear on your lock screen. You can then use the ChronoMonitor app to read and categorize the notification. Whether you want to make sure your Mac is backed up or you're monitoring multiple backups at work, ChronoMonitor keeps you up to date of every backup and sync you have scheduled.

ChronoMonitor 1.1 follows the release of the new ChronoSync 4.6, the complete Mac backup, bootable backup, and folder synchronizing app. ChronoSync 4.6 has been built to be better than it was before. Better, Smarter, Faster. ChronoSync is a professional-quality, 3-in-1 app that Mac owners rely upon for standard backup, bootable backup, and folder synchronization.

ChronoMonitor can also monitor the operational status of any networked ChronoAgents. If you're synchronizing two Macs, sharing a folder on a Mac server between Macs, backing up one or more Macs to a Mac server, or even maintaining a bootable backup over a network, then the combination of ChronoSync and ChronoAgent is the answer.

Track Your Key Performance Indicators On Your Apple Watch With Numerics - Published on 04/14/15

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Numerics, the popular business dashboard app for the iPhone & iPad that aggregates and presents key business metrics like live analytics, engagement metrics, revenue and other data from over 25 cloud services, is now available for the Apple Watch. Numerics for the Apple Watch is designed to work alongside the iPhone app to present concise metrics right on the wrists of professionals enabling quick insights and informed decisions.

Mumbai, India - Cynapse is proud to announce the global availability of Numerics for the Apple Watch, especially designed to monitor and track key business metrics from the wrist. The sole purpose of Numerics is to keep users aware of their key performance indicators - sales today, number of tasks for the day, marketing effort's performance or any other metric that matters most to the user. The quick accessibility and availability of these numbers on the Apple Watch can make all the difference between knowing them at a critical time or ignoring them completely.

Wearable technology has been forecasted to become an integral part of business strategy and will redefine the way people engage with their work. The Apple Watch is set to lead the revolution by miniaturizing computing onto people's wrists. This presents a huge opportunity for apps to enable users to connect them with their business, customers or employees in a whole new way.

Since the invention of wristwatches, people have been glancing at them to track time; a changing number thats universally important to everyone. Cynapse believes the logical step for a smart watch is to enable its user to track other changing numbers that are more personal and uniquely relevant to the user. "So we set out with a mission to design a unique personal experience for Numerics on the Apple Watch to help our users better engage with their important numbers. Because, what is a smart watch without a great app that drives the user to strap it on everyday." said Romasha Roy Choudhury, VP - Product Design, Cynapse.

The iPhone and Apple Watch versions of Numerics work together rhythmically. Users can select metrics from the Numerics iPhone app to be shown on the watch and get alerted on changes. Any of these metrics can be set as a glance on the Apple watch so its just a swipe away. Numerics for the Apple Watch implements Handoff so when a user is looking at a metric on the watch, she can seamlessly continue to zoom into the data on her phone with a swipe from the lock screen. It's one app that moves with the user from the wrist to the palm and back again.

Numerics v3 also bundles a slick new feature on the iPhone and iPad - Deeplinking. With this new enhancement, on swiping a widget's notification from the lock screen or tapping on Numerics' Today Screen widget will navigate the user directly to the zoom view of the widget, instead of just opening the app, saving precious time and improving the user experience greatly.

Numerics for the Apple Watch is now available on the App Store. Owners of the Apple Watch can download it for free and try it out starting now on their Apple Watch.

Pricing and Availability:
Numerics is free and available worldwide through the App Store in the Business Category. Premium in-app widget packs are available at variable pricing ranging from $1.99 to $99.99 (USD).

TuneTime for iOS Brings Interval Workouts to Apple Watch - Published on 04/14/15

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Atlantia Software today announces TuneTime 3.3.0, the latest version of its musical interval timer app. Version 3.3.0 adds a full-featured Apple Watch app ahead of the device launch later this month. A slimmed down version of the iOS app, the watch extension allows users to see the most important workout information at a glance as well as basic playback controls. By opening the app during any workout, a user has instant access to the current interval name, time, total count, and next interval.

Boston, Massachusetts - Atlantia Software today announces the immediate availability of the latest version of its musical interval timer app TuneTime, adding a full-featured Apple Watch app ahead of the device launch later this month. A slimmed down version of the iOS app, the watch extension allows users to see the most important workout information at a glance. By opening the app during any workout, a user has instant access to the current interval name, time, total count, and next interval. Rounding out the features for the Apple Watch app are the abilities to pause/resume the current workout as well as advance or go back in the music playlist.

"The Apple Watch is at its core, an insanely great fitness device, so it felt like a totally natural fit for an interval timer like TuneTime," said the app's developer Nick Bonatsakis when asked about the motivation behind the update. "The challenge was really around choosing only the most critical pieces of information to present, given the small screen size and quick interaction times," he added. When asked about his favorite feature, he replied "I think the ability to control playback right from your wrist will be huge. The typical use-case for the iOS app is to start the workout and toss your device somewhere while you go through the motions. With the Apple Watch, you'll be able to skip through songs without interruption."

SoundMeter 8 includes companion app for Apple Watch - Published on 04/14/15

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Faber Acoustical today announces new versions of SoundMeter on the iOS App Store. SoundMeter 8 and SoundMeter Pro 4 each now include a companion app for Apple Watch. Users can now monitor levels, start and stop measurements, and receive notifications from their wrist. The original sound level meter app for iPhone has now become the original sound level meter app for Apple Watch. A complimentary new feature also allows the individual tools in SoundMeter to run independently.

Lehi, Utah - Faber Acoustical, LLC is pleased to announce that SoundMeter 8 and SoundMeter Pro 4, which are both available for immediate download on the App Store, each now include a companion app for Apple Watch. Users can now monitor levels, start and stop measurements, and receive notifications from their wrist. These new versions of SoundMeter add other significant features, as well, including background sound level measurements and notifications of exceeded levels and completed measurements.

SoundMeter's companion app for Apple Watch includes a separate screen for each of SoundMeter's available tools running on the iPhone (new tools added to SoundMeter via in-app purchase are also supported in the companion app). Each tool can be started or stopped from the watch and current measurement values are updated on the watch display each second. The new notifications feature in SoundMeter allows the user to be notified on the Apple Watch when certain events occur. Notifications can be triggered when measurements stop (using the Auto-Stop feature) or when certain user-defined levels are exceeded. These notifications are supported in each of the Meter, Octave, and Dosimeter tools.

SoundMeter's new ability to run in the background allows it to continue to run long-term measurements while other (non-audio) apps are in use. A complimentary new feature also allows the individual tools in SoundMeter to run independently. This means that users can run measurements in the Meter, Octave, and Dosimeter tools simultaneously. Users no longer need to worry about resetting the current measurement by switching to another tool (whether intentionally or accidentally). This makes SoundMeter more robust in terms of its ability to preserve acquired data until it can be saved more permanently in an image or data file.

The new versions of SoundMeter also include the following improvements:
* Lx (percentile-exceeded sound level) measurements now use the same time and frequency weighting as the Lp measurement, instead of automatically switching to Fast and A weighting.

* Frequency weighting may now be set to Flat, A, or C in the Dosimeter options menu (previously, the Dosimeter only allowed A weighting).

* Meter, Octave, and Dosimeter tools now use local notifications to alert you when a measurement has finished or when selected levels have exceeded user-defined thresholds.

* This release corrects a bug that could cause the device sensitivity for the built-in mic or the headset input to get corrupted when changing input gain selection with device units set to "FS."

Note: Octave and Dosimeter tools, Lx measurement and data file export capability are sold separately within SoundMeter via in-app purchase. These capabilities are all included with SoundMeter Pro.

Note: Apple Watch compatibility requires iOS 8.2 and iPhone 5 or later.

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Monkimun today introduces Monki Home 1.0 for iOS, a new language learning app that makes it easy for children, ages two-to-six, to become bilingual. Monki Home harnesses the importance of children's daily routines and incorporates familiar words and actions related to their home life to make the learning process easier. Children interact with five cute and funny animals, the stars of Monki Home, to simulate everyday actions. The app consists of 11 activities divided into four mini-games.

Madrid, Spain - Monkimun, an award-winning educational technology company that makes language learning for kids and toddlers fun, today is thrilled to announce the release and immediate availability of Monki Home 1.0 for iOS, a new language learning app that makes it easy for children, ages two-to-six, to become bilingual.

Monki Home harnesses the importance of children's daily routines and incorporates familiar words and actions related to their home life to make the learning process easier. Monki Home consists of 11 activities divided into four mini-games: Kitchen, Laundry, Bathroom & Bedroom. Children interact with five cute and funny animals, the stars of Monki Home, to simulate everyday actions, resulting in new vocabulary acquisition of more than 100 words. In addition, by using the app, children are exposed to different grammatical structures, questions and commands in their new language.

"Becoming bilingual has so many advantages, especially for young kids. Learning a second language early lays the foundation for better cognitive skills, which show up very early in a child's life and provide a noticeable improvement in intellectual abilities, including math, reasoning and creativity."

More than 50 animations create Monki Home's friendly environment and lend to its adaptive learning method, providing children with the very best learning experience. Monki Home melds fun and education in an unique and interactive manner, edufying games, rather than gamifying education. All content is developed by Monkimun's educational experts specifically for ages two-to-six to reinforce a child's mother tongue or to introduce the sounds and structure of a second language.
