Selfie X 2.3.1 Offers Fun and Safe Selfie Sharing for iPhone Users - Published on 01/18/16

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

South Korean-based development team, Triankle announces Selfie X 2.3.1, an important update to their free photo and video selfie sharing app for iOS devices. The app allows anyone to share photos and videos with other users, whether they are nearby, or on the other side of the globe. Selfie X merges the best features of photo sharing and social networks into one convenient app that offers a safe and secure method of connecting with others. Version 2.3.1 brings bug fixes to the app.

Seoul, Korea - Triankle is proud to announce the release of Selfie X 2.3.1, an important update to their free photo and video selfie sharing app for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch devices. Selfie X, (short for Selfie eXchange), offers all the best elements of photo sharing and social networks in one convenient and easy to use app that provides a way to share selfies with other users in a safe and secure manner.

Selfie X allows anyone to connect with others, whether they are in their own neighborhood, or on the other side of the globe. Available in a large array of languages, Selfie X allows users to avoid language barriers, offering the ability to communicate via photos and videos. The app allows user to see other users that are currently online, presenting the opportunity to exchange selfies and possibly grow the user's personal network.

Selfie X's well thought out interface and method of operation aim to make it a cut above alternative apps of this genre. This app allows users the ability to not only share their selfie photos and videos with the general Selfie X community, but to also safely swap selfie pics and videos simultaneously with individual users. A simultaneous swap is built on the idea of fair play, one selfie deserves another. So, if a user agrees to swap their selfie photo or video for another user's selfie, neither selfie is released for viewing until both users have submitted a photo or video.

"Folks just naturally want to reach out to others, to make a personal connection using their mobile devices, but they may have a hard time judging the intent of the other party, or have difficulty communicating due to language and culture barriers. They may also be mislead by other social media users, due to the misuse of Photoshop filters or other editing apps," says Sang June Lee, CEO of Triankle. "Selfie X relieves those concerns, by leading to selfie swaps only by users who have mutual interests. Our unique reaction videos feature offers instant feedback. Instead of the usual wink emoji, or 'OMG' reaction text, Selfie X shows the user's true reaction, with no filtering. That facial expression says a thousand words, with no language barriers!"

The simultaneous swapping method ensures both users will be online at the same time, thereby increasing the interaction between the users, and also increasing the possibility of an online chat to have fun discussing the selfie swaps. Plus, the optional "reaction" videos offer users the chance to immediately see the reaction of the opposite user when they see the entertaining selfie shot! Users also don't have to worry about selfies falling into the wrong hands, as swapped selfies, and the reaction shots, all self-delete after they are viewed, keeping moments private and between the users who shared them.

Features:
* Selfie and selfie video post, share and exchange
* Reaction video sent to swapped selfies
* Selfies self-destruct soon after exchange for maximum privacy
* Chat feature available after selfie exchange
* Exchange selfies with friends who are not Selfie X members via Facebook and Twitter
* Follow friends to view their updates
* Comment and like other user's photos
* Unlimited uploads into the user gallery
* Personal mobile web album offers exclusive URL to share selfies with friends who are not yet Selfie X members
* View who is available, and what their distance is
* Users can see who viewed their profile
* Version 2.3.1 offers a new Main Page User Interface

Selfie X offers a photo sharing experience that will have users coming back to share, "just one more selfie," time after time. Best of all, the app's built-in safety measures protect users from the usual perils of social networks, allowing users to safely build a network of friends from near and far. Once the ball starts rolling, users will be selfie ninjas in no time.

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

Pricing and Availability:
Selfie X 2.3.1 is free, and is available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Social Networking category. An Android version is available through Google Play, and an Amazon Fire version is available through the Amazon Appstore.

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Jurni Inc. announces Jurni 1.1 for iOS, a unique journaling application where users share their experiences via video. Users collect their life experiences throughout the day or can record the full 45 seconds in one setting if they choose. Moments are patched together to form an ongoing story of the user's life and are shared publicly or privately. Jurni users capture moments that matter while allowing greater connectivity with people who are going through similar experiences and emotions.

Dublin, California - Jurni Inc. is proud to announce the release of Jurni 1.1, a new video journaling application that puts a modern spin on human reflection.

Bangkok Bursts On Digital Scene: Global Mobile App Summit & Awards'16 - Published on 01/18/16

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Apps World Mag will be hosting this year's GMASA 2016, the Global Mobile App Summit & Awards in Bangkok, Thailand. Digital visionaries, tech specialists, entrepreneurs and marketing experts from across Thailand, ASEAN and the world are gathering for the in-depth one-day event at the Sheraton Grande Sukhumvit on January 22nd 2016 from 9:00 am - 6:00 pm. A networking evening follows, promising attendees an unparalleled opportunity to meet and connect with savvy individuals.

Bangkok, Thailand - Bangkok, a hub of app development and mobile phone penetration is this year's venue for hosting GMASA 2016, the Global Mobile App Summit & Awards, organized by Indian-based Apps World Mag which is a part of the DCI Group. GMASA was first held in the fast-growing startup and IT city of Chennai in India in May last year.

Digital visionaries, tech specialists, entrepreneurs and marketing experts from across Thailand, ASEAN and the world are gathering for the in-depth one-day event at the Sheraton Grande Sukhumvit on January 22nd 2016 from 9:00 am - 6:00 pm. A networking evening follows, promising attendees an unparalleled opportunity to meet and connect with savvy individuals at the forefront of this exciting and rapidly changing digital arena.

Future Tech and Interactive Tech Debate:
GMASA 2016 promises lively, intelligent debates and is an educational must for professionals involved with mobile markets on a localized or international scale; a unique platform for participants and attendees to come together and share new ideas in an engaging, focused and interactive environment. A spectacular, hands-on exhibition at GMASA will also feature the latest mobile technology available today and being utilized by groundbreaking companies and the consumers of tomorrow.

In its second year, GMASA is designed to reveal and discuss future trends, effective strategies and relevant experiences in the fast-developing mobile market. Eight panel discussions engage visitors with interactive insights, featuring industry leaders involved with mobile markets, app development, gaming and digital media, such as Singapore's leading media company, Mediacorp.

The focus this year is on gaming which should attract many of Thailand's estimated 60,000 app developers and the growing numbers abroad, according to C R Venkatesh, Managing Director and CEO of Dot Com Infoway, organiser of the conference.

"Although relatively small compared to the bigger Asian countries, the Thai mobile games market is on a steep growth curve. The total revenue from mobile games in Thailand reached USD93.5 million in 2014 and should increase up to almost USD300 million in 2017. Mobile currently makes up over 40% of all games revenue in Thailand, and this share is due to reach over 60% in 2017."

Mobile Penetration:
Thailand is a natural choice for GMASA 2016, being a leader within the ASEAN region in terms of the smartphone market. Mobile phone penetration in Thailand in Q1 2015 was close to 180% due to multiple phone ownership, with over 80 million 3G subscribers. Some 75% of mobile internet users in the country are under 35 years old with a culture of utilizing apps for gaming, video access and music, as well as adding to the region's rising and extremely lucrative e-commerce industry.

International Keynote Speakers:
GMASA also features 10 keynote addresses, giving visitors a wealth of invaluable advice and real-world tips to sharpen their competitive edge within or via mobile markets. An impressive line-up of high-profile speakers includes Global Head of Gaming Partnerships and Head of Mobile APAC at Google, Sergio Salvador; Markuu Lepisto, Principal Technology Evangelist at Amazon Web Services in Singapore; and Director of Product Strategy & Sales at Twitter for APAC, Americas & Emerging Markets, Maya Hari.

#1 Drinking Game Drink-O-Tron Launches New Game Decks - Published on 01/18/16

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Drink-O-Tron by Prodigal Creative LLC takes the best aspects of various drinking games and combines them with the advanced technology & anytime, anywhere convenience of the modern app world. Users start by selecting a deck that fits their mood, such as Wager, Drunkard, Tipsy, Flirty, Mischief, Rulemaster, Pants on Fire, Accents, Categories, Survival, Never/Ever, Truth or Dare, and several more. Version 2.8 containing new game decks, and Android users can join the never-ending Drink-O-Tron party.

Los Angeles, California - Worldwide fans of Prodigal Creative LLC's insanely fun, creative and unique drinking game app Drink-O-Tron can re-fill their glasses for two cheerful reasons: the launch of version 2.8 containing new game decks, and for the first time ever Android users can join the never-ending Drink-O-Tron party.

With over 200k downloads and hundreds of positive reviews, Drink-O-Tron is the App Store's #1 drinking game - and within seconds of launching the app, it's easy to see why it's universally hailed as "The Drinking Game of Drinking Games". Essentially, Drink-O-Tron takes the best aspects of various drinking games - a glorious legacy of social inebriation that dates back to 500 BCE - and combines them with the advanced technology and "anytime, anywhere" convenience of the modern app world. Here's how it works:

Users start by selecting a deck that fits their mood, such as Wager, Drunkard, Tipsy, Flirty, Mischief, Rulemaster, Pants on Fire, Accents, Categories, Survival, Never/Ever, Truth or Dare, and several more. They can also mix different decks, or load all decks for an ultimate experience that falls somewhere between blissful and bizarre. Two decks are included with the initial download (Basic and Wager), while additional decks are available as in-app purchases.

Once they load their deck(s), users simply tap their screen, flip over a card, and follow the instructions. For example, they may be told to state a fact about themselves and have others guess whether it's true or false. Those who guess wrong have to take a drink. Or, they may be ordered to take a drink for every tattoo on their body, and so on. Each card is unique, and many of them are laugh-out-loud funny.

What's more, that the decks and cards are stunningly illustrated works of art, and have a very cool vintage "throwback" look and feel. The audio and sound effects are also exceptional, but can be muted for those playing in environments where commanding unwanted attention is not particularly good strategy (i.e. on flights, trains, etc.).

"The back story for Drink-O-Tron is as unique as the app itself," commented Travis Blain of Prodigal Creative LLC. "Some friends and I had rented a house in the mountains. When we got there, we realized to our horror that nobody brought playing cards for drinking games. We figured we'd be able to find something in the App Store - but we figured wrong, because we came up empty. And so that night we got together and invented Drink-O-Tron, which has now become the drinking game of drinking games!"

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

Pricing and Availability:
Drink-O-Tron 2.8 is Free and available worldwide through the App Store in the Entertainment category. There is also an Android version available on Google Play.

GeekSuit Announces Beta Test of Client Folder Maker 4.5 for OS X - Published on 01/19/16

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

GeekSuit today announces open beta testing of Client Folder Maker 4.5, an important update to their popular folder creation and management utility for Mac OS X. Client Folder Maker offers a simple to use folder creation and management tool, perfect for the busy web developer, graphic designer, app developer, desktop publisher, or prepress operator. GeekSuit is offering users the chance to beta test version 4.5 of the app in order to test drive the new features before it goes public.

Lake Dallas, Texas - GeekSuit today is proud to announce the start of open beta testing for Client Folder Maker 4.5, an important update to their popular folder creation and management utility for Mac OS X. Client Folder Maker allows users to set up a hierarchy of folders once, then instantly re-create that hierarchy anywhere in the filesystem with merely a few clicks of the mouse. Version 4.5 is ready for beta testing, and GeekSuit is offering users the chance to beta test the new version of the app before it hits the Mac App Store.

Client Folder Maker offers a simple to use folder creation and management tool, perfect for the busy web developer, graphic designer, app developer, desktop publisher, or prepress operator. Easily invoke any preset via a Menu Item, keyboard shortcut, the Services Menu or with a handy Finder Extension. Users simply enter the Client or Project Name, the Job or Version Number, and click the "Create Folder" button. Instantly, a new folder hierarchy is created, based on the entered information, and the custom hierarchy that was selected.

Client Folder Maker doesn't stop there. Users can also designate content to be auto-imported from existing source files. This feature easily copies content from any text file into the newly created files in the new folders. It is prefect for users who find themselves using the same base content in their projects, such as custom HTML markup, jQuery, CSS files, and more.

"Client Folder Maker has long been the solution for any Mac user who provides a service and creates new job folders for their clients," explained GeekSuit CEO Ray Barber. "With version 4.5 of the app, we've added the ability to drag-and-drop entire folder hierarchies to create new presets, users can now lock their preset to prevent changes or deletion, and even a new "copy to ..." function that allows moving document file types into a new preset."

Features:
* User-defined keyboard shortcut
* Colored labels
* Custom folder views
* Auto-incrementing variables
* Import/export settings via drag/drop
* Preset descriptions
* Custom permissions
* File content copying
* Stays out of the way
* Can be invoked via Contextual Menu (Finder Extension), Menu Item, Keyboard shortcut or Services Menu
* Limitless Customization
* Zero Footprint

The hidden gem in CFM is its limitless customization of tag variables, so the possibilities for personal customization are endless. Despite its namesake, Client Folder Maker's default presets aren't limited to simply a "client name" or a "job number." As long as the chosen words or phrases are surrounded in braces, you can create and use any tags you wish.

Mac users who are running Mac OS X 10.8 or later on their machine are invited to participate in the Client Folder Maker 4.5 beta at the MacDeveloper website. Users simply need visit the website and login, if they're already registered as a user, or become a tester by filling out a simple form. Once registered and logged in, users can apply to beta test Client Folder 4.5.

What's New in Client Folder Maker 4.5:
1) Users can now drag-and-drop full folder hierarchies directly to create new presets.
2) Users can lock presets to prevent accidental deletion, or manipulation.
3) New "copy to ..." function that allows moving document file types into a new preset.
4) Through the use of a new Finder Extension, users can invoke a preset by using the handy Widget directly in any Finder Window, or even contextually, via Control >> Click.

The company was founded on the belief that every developer should have access to state-of-the-art tools to manage every aspect of the Mac application testing process.

System Requirements:
* Mac OS X 10.8 or later (Yosemite and El Capitan ready)
* 64-bit processor
* 1.6 MB

Pricing and Availability:
