Perg, Austria - With the release of version 6.6, Ergonis Software GmbH celebrates the 10th anniversary of Typinator, their highly acclaimed text expander. Along this release, Ergonis Software published two new Typinator sets for easy access to the symbols in the new Apple Color Emoji font introduced in OS X Yosemite 10.10.3.

To celebrate Typinator's 10th anniversary, Ergonis Software is offering a 25% discount on new purchases before July 15th, 2015. The offer is good for all Ergonis products, including PopChar and KeyCue.

Typinator has been a leader in the field of text expansion software since June 2005. With the release of the latest major version 6, which added more than 50 powerful new features and improvements, this leading role has been impressively underlined. The unique support for regular expressions, top marks for speed, robustness, and ease-of-use, make Typinator the clear number one in its field.

Typinator 6.6 continues along this path and improves the convenience of getting informed about and installing new versions. When a new version is available, you can now check the new features and enhancements before downloading the new version. The built-in installer has been adapted to new functions and appearance of Yosemite and helps with purchasing and updating licenses when the current license does not cover the new version. The new version now works with the Pinyin input methods for Chinese and uses less memory when idle. Besides that, it includes many other enhancements and offers improved compatibility with third-party products like 4th Dimension and MatLab.

Together with the new version 6.6, Ergonis Software released two new free sets to get the most out of the new Apple Color Emoji font that comes with OS X Yosemite 10.10.3.

The Emoji 3.0 set contains all skin tone variants of all applicable Emoji symbols. In addition to skin tones, the new version contains more consistent names and shows the standard Unicode names of the symbols.

The new Flags set allows you to easily insert color flags into your text, without requiring knowledge of the technical details behind the scene. Just type "flag" and the country code or a part of the country name into Typinator's Quick Search field to enter the desired flag into your document.

The extra sets can be downloaded free of charge from www.ergonis.com/downloads/extras/ and installed into Typinator with just a double-click.

Typinator is a powerful, yet elegantly simple solution that boosts your productivity by automating the process of inserting frequently used text and auto-correcting typing errors. Across all applications, it detects specific sequences of typed characters and automatically replaces them with text snippets, graphics, URLs, dates and special characters.

System Requirements:
Typinator 6.6 requires Mac OS X 10.6 or newer and is fully compatible with OS X Yosemite (10.10).

Availability and Ordering:
Typinator can be purchased securely on the Ergonis Software website. To claim your birthday discount, simply enter coupon code "TYPINATOR10YEARS". The coupon code is good for all Ergonis products, including PopChar and KeyCue, but not for upgrades. The upgrade to Typinator 6.6 is free for anyone who owns a valid license for Typinator 6. Upgrade paths are available for owners of older licenses. For information about purchases, including enterprise licenses, volume discounts, and upgrade pricing offers, see the company's web site. The new extra sets require a licensed version of Typinator 6.0 or newer and OS X Yosemite 10.10.3 or newer.

AlphaDigits Top Rated Apps June 2015 - Published on 07/01/15

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

AlphaDigits names five top class mobile apps based on the reviews during the month of June 2015. In Triple Prime, the aim is to assemble three tiles of the same type together. In Castling, the aim is to capture the King in as few moves as possible. Email Exchange allows anyone to organize their inbox and choose which email conversation threads to focus on. Raendel offers the ability to make connections that matter. In Rush of Heroes, players enjoy the fun of completely animated 3D graphics.

Long Island, New York - Mobile app review publisher, AlphaDigits has named the top rated apps for June 2015. AlphaDigits names five top class mobile apps every month based on the reviews published in the website during the particular month. This website has now released the names of top rated mobile apps for the month of June.

Triple Prime (9.3 /10): In Triple Prime, you aim to assemble three tiles of the same type together. They can be sharing side or a corner. Once you get three or more together, you tap on one of the tiles and that group then becomes one tile of the value of the next prime number. If you have a group of three tiles with '3' on them, they will become a '5' tile. If you consolidate a group of tiles with a '2' on them, they become a '3' tile. Your end goal is to collect as many points as possible, and you do this by getting to as high a prime number as you can before you gridlock yourself out of more moves.

Castling (8.7 /10): When you first download Castling, you'll wonder why there are so few pieces. This game is geared around getting you to capture the King in as few moves as possible, given the piece, or pieces, you have. You also have the opportunity to collect bonus points if pass by squares marked with stars. Gameplay starts on a simple board and advances into more complicated scenarios. You first start with a single piece, a few stars to collect, and the opposing side's King.

Email Exchange (8.3 /10): This email client from Mail Wise allows users to organize their inbox, so they can choose which email conversation threads to focus on. In fact, this program allows users to be able to read only those emails that they want or need. The first of the many great things about this email program is that it is free. Just download it from the Play Store, install it on your phone or device, and you can start using it right away, without spending a single cent on it!

Raendel (8.3 /10): Sometimes, there are moments when you need to share thoughts, feelings, emotions, ideas, or even need someone to just quietly listen. In those moments, Raendel offers the ability to make connections that matter, without exposing yourself to an extent that feels uncomfortable or makes you feel vulnerable. What's really neat about Raendel is that you don't have to give out extensively exposing amounts of personal information - no photos are necessary, no phone numbers are necessary.

Rush of Heroes (8 /10): Rush of Heroes is the new buzz for the online game players who enjoy the fun of completely animated 3D graphics. This new game is an adaptation of World of Warcraft and is an improved version of I am MT. The most significant feature of this new mobile app is that it offers a breakthrough against the usual card game set-up as it offers a more genuine battle system which is less dependent on the role of card game. However, the popular battle-cows are significant in this new version too.

While speaking about their new app marketing packages, Joe Ellen, an Editor at AlphaDigits said, "At present, we offer five app marketing services at a very competitive price. We hope to add a few more in the next few months." Developers can contact AlphaDigits through the onsite form to get their apps reviewed. They can contact by mail or the contact form to avail other marketing services.
