Astreea Inc. introduces Cliick for iOS - Interactive Newsfeed - Published on 08/24/15

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

San Francisco based startup, Astreea Inc. today introduces Cliick 1.0.2, its new lifestyle app for iOS devices. Cliick is an interactive newsfeed that allows users to connect with like-minded people in their area organically as they browse through trending content. The app aggregates trending content continuously from major publishers currently in four categories. Popularity of each content is determined based on the number of likes/shares/comments/tweets it received on social media.

San Francisco, California - Astreea Inc, a San Francisco based startup, launched their mobile app, Cliick, for iOS. Cliick serves users trending content and allows them to interact and connect with other users in their area based on their preferences and taste.

Upon sign up, users create a profile and specify their preferences as to whom they want to interact with based on gender, age and distance. As users browse through and view trending content, they can like or post a comment on content they find interesting. The app then shows their comments along with each piece of content content to users who meet their preferences and have a similar taste based on their past history of using the app. Each user can start interacting with another user by liking or replying to his/her comments in which case their response will be sent to the user who posted the comment as a private message. Cliick learns users' taste seamlessly as they use the app to match them with people who have a similar taste based on their history of using the app.

"Our goal is to bring the experience of meeting new people organically in real life to the virtual world of mobile in a meaningful and efficient way," said founder and CEO Moe Rafiee. "Cliick can be used for dating, making new friends and professional networking and it addresses two main deficiencies of apps that connect users with new people in their area: One-Superficiality and the amount of noise, Two-Lack of context."

According to Rafiee, the stuff one cares to read about, likes or reacts to is a great indicator of one's interests, sense of humor and personality. Cliick's algorithms use such data to reduce the noise and match users with those who have a similar "taste" and share their interests. "Cliick also adds context to the encounters. More precisely, it gives users an opportunity to talk about one or multiple topics of common interest to get to know each other beyond their basic profile info before investing your time in meeting in person," stated Rafiee.

Cliick aggregates trending (popular) content continuously from major publishers currently in four categories: Lifestyle, Sports, Science & Tech and Entertainment. Popularity of each content is determined based on the number of likes/shares/comments/tweets it received on social media.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Optimized for iPhone 5, iPhone 6/6 Plus
* Requires iOS 8.0 or later
* 13.9 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Cliick 1.0.2 is Free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Lifestyle category.

Hit the Spot 1.2 for iOS Offers Retro Style and Fast Moving Gameplay - Published on 08/24/15

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Indie developer, Sebastian Huehn today announces Hit the Spot 1.2, an important update to his deceivingly simple, yet challenging game for iOS devices. With its retro style & fast moving gameplay, Hit the Spot provides a challenge to gamers of any level. The game is easy to learn, yet challenging to master. Players must follow one rule: Hit the green spot. It's a test of any player's visual skills and reflexes. Version 1.2 brings improved gameplay, a new leaderboard, and a "More Games" option.

Oldenburg, Germany - Independent developer, Sebastian Huehn today is proud to announce the release and immediate availability of Hit the Spot 1.2, an important update to his popular retro-style arcade game for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch devices. Hit the Spot is a simple, yet fun and challenging game, which will test even the most skilled player's reflexes, visual skills, and hand-eye coordination. Players will find themselves drawn in by the game's simple premise, yet constantly challenged by its ever changing gameplay.

Hit the Spot is easy to learn, as there is one rule, and one rule only: Hit the green spot and nothing else! However, as easy as that single play mechanic may sound, players will find themselves continually challenged as they attempt to follow this simple rule. Contestants will be faced with an ever-growing array of disappearing and reappearing shapes and colors. Within this jumbled playing field lies a green spot that must be tapped with a finger before time runs out.

While it seems like it would be exceedingly simple to just tap a green spot, contestants will soon discover that the challenge, (and their frustration), continues to increase. As the rounds advance, a continually expanding amount of other shapes, such as stars, triangles, boxes, and yes, even spots, appear in a variety of colors. Players can't just look for a green color on the screen, they have to find the green spot. Tap the green spot within just a few seconds, or start the game all over again at zero!

What's New in Version 1.2:
* Made some minor improvements
* Merged Game Center Leaderboard for the upcoming Make Me Rich app
* Added "More Games" option

"I've always been a fan of retro arcade games, as well as the 'whack-a-mole' games I played as a child," says developer Sebastian Huehn. "I designed Hit the Spot to offer players the best of both worlds, offering simple yet colorful graphics, mesmerizingly moving objects, and challenging tap-to-clear gameplay. While contestants will become frustrated, they'll also be compelled to play 'just one more round!'"

Players can also challenge friends and family to play Hit the Spot by posting their high scores via the game's Twitter, Facebook, and Game Center integration features. As well as posting a player's high score, a link to the game is included so other players can accept the challenge to beat their friend's high scores.

Features:
* Improvement of visual perception and reflexes
* Training of hand-eye coordination
* Simple but challenging gameplay
* Easy to learn
* Compete with friends
* Charming retro style

Playing Hit the Spot can help improve a player's hand-eye coordination, as well as sharpen their reflexes. Finding the green spot and tapping it before time runs out, while faced with the continually increasing number of shapes and colors, will provide a challenge to even the most skilled arcade champion. Hit the Spot is a game that can be played as a quick two-minute time killer while waiting in line, or to board a plane - or a player can engage in a marathon "all-nighter" session while they attempt to beat their best score.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 7.1 or later
* Universal Application
* 13.6 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Hit the Spot 1.2 is free, and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category. Members of the press please contact Sebastian for more information, or visit Hit the Spot!'s official website.

Scene & Heard 3 delivers enhanced communication support with new tools - Published on 08/24/15

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Therapy Box's popular app, Scene & Heard has been updated with its biggest release to date. The addition of a printable communication book and an interactive visual timetable with task prompting feature, means that the app is now a 24/7 communication tool, catering to the full range of communication tasks for people who use the app. In addition, the editing feature has been tailored to be smarter, quicker and easier - making it a must have app for people with communication difficulties.

London, United Kingdom - Therapy Box today is pleased to announce the release of Scene & Heard 3.0, a major update to their award winning scene-based Alternative and Augmentative Communication aid. The latest release features a brand new look, as well as a range of new and rather innovative features.

Scene & Heard allows you to create visual scenes for context based communication or create new learning aids with interactive features. Whether you are a parent, therapist or carer, the easy-to-use interface will help you import photos and allocate actions to any scene. Personalise each scene with fun and interactive options including audio messages, video clips and Widgit symbols. Use scene links to transition to a new scene and tell a story within the app.

This latest release builds on the success of the app with the inclusion of new features. The app now lets you create custom communication books to share and print. With easy to use tabs and all the features of a real book, this feature makes Scene & Heard a truly universal communication aid. High tech and low tech AAC - all in one!

In the latest update to the app, Therapy Box have also introduced an all-new task prompting feature, so you can now create pages giving clear step by step instructions for any task. You can use video clips or audio to explain each step, and once complete, the app will move onto the next hotspot. A step-timer has also been built in for actions (such as brushing teeth) that need to be undertaken for a set length of time.
Finally, you now have the option of schedule a task using the new visual schedule display. Set a page to appear at a given time, and the app will not only provide a notification when the scene is due to appear: it will also put it into a smart, easy to read calendar, so that you know what's happening and when.

Rebecca Bright, co-founder of Therapy Box explains: "With Scene & Heard 3, we've tried to think about the 24/7 use of AAC. Designing the communication book feature not only means that people using the app have a low-tech back up, but it opened up a new way of presenting visual scenes on the iPad", explains Rebecca Bright, Therapy Box cofounder. "The new task prompting and visual timetable features really take Scene & Heard to the point of being a 360degree communication app".

An Assistive Technology Specialist who uses the app adds "It's versatility lends itself to satisfying many communication needs to users of a variety of levels."

Other new features include:
* Paint and draw your own scene
* Share your scenes via Facebook or Twitter
* Easier creation and editing tools
* iOS voice integration
* Export/import your scenes via Dropbox

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

Pricing and Availability:
Scene & Heard 3.0 is $49.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Education category.

Singapore - Mezmedia is proud to announce Bamba Clock 1.0.0, the eleventh in the Bamba series of educational apps for kids. Aimed at kids four and older, Bamba Clock teaches children how to read an analog clock through pirate-themed adventure stories.

Kids learn to tell the time step-by-step, they start with the hour hand, then the minute hand and then finally both hands. Completing each clock challenge advances the story. In one such challenge, players unlock Captain Birdbeard's treasure chest by moving the hands of the clock to the correct time. Whenever the clock hands are moved, the time is told (narrated in English) so kids will learn what the minute and hour hands do. The goal is for kids to learn how to read the clock through fun and interactive play.

There are four adventures to choose from - players chase Captain Birdbeard across the Seven Seas, take part in a sea race through treacherous thunderstorms, hunt for hidden treasures on Mystery Island and finally test their mettle with the Clock Quiz.

At the start of every story, kids choose a companion character to join them on their adventures. Kids who are fans of the Bamba series will be familiar with these characters, such as Unidonk the Unicorn/Donkey or Ellie-Anne the Zombie Girl.

After completing each quest, kids will be rewarded with a surprise trophy. They can view all their rewards in the treasure room on board the pirate ship.

"Developing an app for kids to learn how to tell the time was very challenging. All those numbers can get really dull. I think that's why there aren't many good apps out in the market that can do this while retaining that fun factor. I like to think we've solved that problem with Bamba Clock."

"Besides, reading the clock is a very important skill all kids should get early. We know this too well, when as parents we are setting limits on play time for our children and so on," said John Ng, co-founder of Mezmedia.

Supported Languages

Device Requirements:

Introducing AudioBrain: an Audio Memory Development App - Published on 08/24/15

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Created for those who want to expand their mental capacity, AudioBrain uses techniques to help arouse under-active brain regions, namely the ones used for processing audio data. Through the use of classical poems, users are able to enliven their remembering process. Compatible with the iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch, AudioBrain has a methodology unlike other brain exercise apps and is already featured in the Top New apps list on the App Store.

Frankfurt AM Main, Germany - AudioBrain, an app like no other, is now available on the App Store and Google Play- but it is not a game. Created for those who want to expand their mental capacity, the new app uses techniques to help arouse under-active brain regions, namely the ones used for processing audio data. It is important to exercise the various regions of the brain to prevent stagnation, and to continue developing audio skills, which helps to increase perception. Unfortunately, as people age, they practice audio memory less and visual perception of information becomes dominant. Through the use of classical poetry, AudioBrain aims to put brain function back in balance.

"People rarely use their audio memory these days," said Alex Melman, developer of AudioBrain. "They mostly use visual memory. Therefore, we created an app that is unique in its kind, with simple and efficient methodology to wake the areas of the brain up which are responsible for audio information comprehension."

Listening to information and repeating it aloud multiple times stimulates auditory processing and helps expand the brain. AudioBrain assists users in repeating poetry by classic authors such as Pushkin, Cervantes, and Shakespeare. The works are narrated by professional native speakers of each language in a recording studio, providing quality sound and a pleasant listening experience. Each poem has a difficulty level, allowing users to improve skills gradually. Users are able to complete a lesson in approximately 40 minutes.

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

Pricing and Availability:
AudioBrain is available at the App Store (Education category) in the form of a free version, as well as a full version with all content, including over 130 poems, nine languages, and over 30 authors, for just $4.99. Soon, the developers plan to release more apps based on the same learning methodology. In the meantime, interested parties may purchase the existing app exclusively on the iTunes App Store.

AudioBrain was created by a team of two guys, a developer and a designer, with the goal to create an app that would exercise an individual's memory skills. The resulting product is a uniquely designed memory development app, which involves listening and repeating back classical poetry.

Geometry Stash 2 now available free on the App Store - Published on 08/24/15

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Independent developer, Anson Liu today announces Geometry Stash 2, an update to his popular geometry reference for iOS devices. Geometry Stash 2 puts the necessary theorems, postulates, and corollaries at students' fingertips. With the new update, Students and teachers can now make their own review slides. This ability to tailor slides to one's review style or teaching curriculum streamlines the integration of iOS devices into the math classroom.

Fremont, California - Kicking off the back to school season, Geometry Stash 2 puts the necessary theorems, postulates, and corollaries at students' fingertips. As a geometry reference for high school geometry, this app displays definitions and diagrams for students to review. With the new update, Students and teachers can now make their own review slides. This ability to tailor slides to one's review style or teaching curriculum streamlines the integration of iOS devices into the math classroom.

Independent developer Anson Liu originally created Geometry Stash in 2009 to help others and himself study for high school geometry. Developed from a student's perspective, Geometry Stash's interface is no-nonsense - swipe to a theorem, tap to view it. Now six years later, Geometry Stash 2 brings revised diagrams and customizable review slides as a free update.

This update retains the original app's simple interface while taking advantage of new device capabilities to make the studying experience more effective. Students are now able to share their review slides with nearby peers using Airdrop. In addition, the new iCloud Drive support makes slides available on multiple devices. Special Geometry Stash options available in Guided Access can help teachers keep students on track and focused on review.

Now, the app can be used for so much more than just geometry. Users can make and share review slides for any subject! Custom slides are structured in JSON, a lightweight data interchange format. Detailed reference and examples for slide creation is available online. Easy to learn and clean to read, students can create slides to supplement their review sessions and increase knowledge retention. Teachers can distribute multiple slides efficiently by creating a bulk import file that contains a group of slides specific to a topic.

"Being able to extend support to existing users and devices was a top priority. Rewriting Geometry Stash from high school has been a fun experience," says Anson Liu. "Geometry Stash 2 is a universal application for both iPhone and iPad and runs on iOS 6 and above. A post covering the development of this update will be posted on my website later this fall."

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Optimized for iPhone 5, iPhone 6/6 Plus
* Requires iOS 6.0 or later
* Universal Application
* 1.5 MB

Pricing and Availability:
For a limited time, Geometry Stash 2.0.3 is Free ($1.99 regular price) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Education category. Expect to see more features coming in later updates!

12-Steppers: Having Trouble Starting Your Moral Inventory - iOS Solution - Published on 08/24/15

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

For those having difficulty getting started on Step 4, the dreaded "Moral Inventory," there's an iOS solution for that. Indie developer James Hollender's Life Inventory apps provide a step-by-step method leading you through this otherwise difficult task. Based on tried and true methods developed by George, who spent 25 years in the program finally figuring out what was needed and how to accomplish it easily, "digging out of the dungeon, from sand to granite" in an orderly fashion.

Revere, Massachusetts - For those having difficulty getting started on Step 4, the dreaded "Moral Inventory," there's an iOS solution for that. Indie developer James Hollender's Life Inventory apps provide a step-by-step method leading the user through this otherwise difficult task. Based on tried and true methods developed by George, who spent 25 years in the program finally figuring out what was needed and how to accomplish it easily, "digging out of the dungeon, from sand to granite" in an orderly fashion.

Both the iPad and iPhone/iPod touch versions accomplish exactly the same thing, only the interface is considerably different for each because of the significant differences in screen size.

Life Inventory guides the user through six different processes, each with its own activity grouping, for making a Moral Inventory:
* Build Lists
* Causes and Effects
* My Part
* Fears Analysis
* Fear Questions
* Sex Relationss

Throughout the processes, users are encouraged to enter data into their Inventory, be completely honest about themselves and take advantage of encouragement and support from others.

Interestingly, the process of completing a Moral Inventory doesn't normally directly address anyone's specific problems, habits or addictions, but rather helps the user examine in detail events that have transpired in their life. The Life Inventory apps gently assist the user in probing into not only what happened, but also why it happened. The questions asked help the user delve into areas often never considered before, like:

* What did I want
* Why did I want it
* What am I not admitting
* What lie did I tell myself
* What did I leave out or not say
* What lie did I tell others
* Have I ever done the same thing
* Was it any of my business
* Were my expectations reasonable
* What was the real truth
* What was I not seeing
* Did I fail to see the facts of the situation
* What actions did I take to get what I wanted
* What actions did I omit to get what I wanted

The Inventory begins by making one simple list, which defines four fixed Categories in which to file away what are broadly categorized as Incidents:
* People
* Institutions and Organizations
* Principles, Ideals and Beliefs
* Sources of Anxiety and Excitement

Each of the four Categories will contain hierarchical sub-categories. From there, users outline Entities and then individual Incidents related to each Entity.

Process-by-process, users complete the Causes and Effects of each Incident. Next, they determine the part they played in each Incident listed. It's not unusual to create hundreds of Incident forms, each devoted to a single incident. The app includes the ability to create and save all written lists and forms with password protection. Having completed all their Incident forms, users can refer to these forms to help list all their Fears. The app includes the following eight pre-defined fears, to which the user is free to add more if desired:

* Other people's opinions
* Not getting what I want
* Not having control of the situation
* Financial insecurity
* Abandonment
* Physical harm
* Failure
* Success

The fifth process is examining each Fear category and answering the following key questions:
* Why did I have this fear
* When did I first notice this fear in my life
* How did I hold on to this fear
* What did this fear make me do
* What chain of circumstances did this fear set in motion in my life
* How did I react to this fear
* What decision did this fear cause me to make
* How did self-reliance fail me
* What should I have done instead

The sixth and final process is examining Sex Relations, where users answer all the following questions regarding each of their sexual relationships:
* How was I selfish
* Where was I dishonest
* Where was I inconsiderate
* Who was hurt in this situation
* Did I arouse jealousy, suspicion, or bitterness
* Where was I at fault
* What should I have done instead
* What will I do in the future
* Did I pray or have spiritual conversations with him/her
* Did I pray for him/her
* Did I enjoy his/her company
* Did we bring each other closer to God

After completing all the processes, the Life Inventory app then provides a convenient way for the user to share their Moral Inventory with their sponsor (Step 5 of the 12 Steps).

AppLinX for Mac: App Analytics Links Made Easy - Published on 08/24/15

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Atlantia Software today introduces AppLinX 1.0.0 for Mac OS X. AppLinX simplifies the process of creating and distributing iTunes App Analytics links. With AppLinX, it is possible to create campaign links in seconds, right from the Mac menu bar. All links are saved to and synched via iCloud, easily searchable, and available to be added to the clipboard with a single click. The app even lets iTunes Affiliate Program members enter their token to have it automatically appended to every link.

Boston, Massachusetts - Atlantia Software today took the covers off its all new app for the Mac, AppLinX. Targeted at iOS app developers, the app simplifies the process of creating, organizing, and distributing iTunes App Analytics links. App Analytics links are an excellent way for developers to determine which sources are driving the most views and downloads for their iOS apps, however, up until now, creating such links involved visiting a page deep within iTunes Connect and tracking every link manually for later use.

With AppLinX, it is possible to create campaign links in seconds, right from the Mac menu bar. All links are saved to and synched via iCloud, easily searchable, and available to be added to the clipboard with a single click. Finally, the app even lets iTunes Affiliate Program members enter their token to have it automatically appended to every link, allowing developers to earn more revenue for every app install.

"As a long-time iOS developer, I absolutely love App Analytics," said developer Nick Bonatsakis. "But, I was somewhat disappointed to find that generating analytics links involved the use of a very clunky page buried deep within iTunes Connect. I found myself visiting that page over and over again, and then jotting down links I had created in notes. After some months of doing this, I decided there was enough friction to try and improve the process via software, so AppLinX came to be." When asked about his favorite part of the app, Bonatsakis remarked, "I'm particularly pleased with the screen that lists all links for an app. Creating a new link is super easy, searching is fast, and copying a link to the clipboard is culminated with a cool animation and sound effect, it's a very satisfying action."

Feature Highlights:
* Create, organize, and distribute App Analytics links with ease
* All links stored in iCloud and searchable from within app
* Optionally add iTunes Affiliate Program token to earn extra revenue via every link

Device Requirements:
* Apple Macintosh Computer
* Requires OS X 10.10 or later

Pricing and Availability
AppLinX 1.0 is $9.99 and available worldwide exclusively through the Mac App Store in the Developer Tools category.
