SimpleMic Audio Recorder Adds Apple Watch Remote Control - Published on 04/28/15

Atlantia Software has unveiled version 1.4 of its audio recorder app SimpleMic, adding support for the Apple Watch in the form of a quick access remote control. The Apple Watch extension, bundled for free with the main SimpleMic app, provides the ability to start and stop recording directly from a user's wrist. Also included in this update is automatic iCloud Drive syncing for audio recordings and support for iOS 8 sharing and action extensions.

Boston, Massachusetts - Atlantia Software has unveiled version 1.4 of its audio recorder app SimpleMic, adding support for the Apple Watch in the form of a quick access remote control. The Apple Watch extension, bundled for free with the main SimpleMic app, provides the ability to start and stop recording directly from a user's wrist. Perfect for situations such as musical performance, lecture, or speech recordings, where the iPhone is placed (and needs to remain) in an ideal acoustic location, potentially steps away from the user. As the recording proceeds, the Apple Watch app displays a flashing indicator similar to that found in the app proper. Finally, and in addition to Apple Watch support, the app now features automatic upload of all recordings to iCloud Drive, making all audio files instantly available on a users desktop Mac or PC without any additional software as well as support for iOS 8 sharing and action extensions.

"Being that the Apple Watch is always on your wrist, it presented the perfect opportunity to enable remote recording controls for SimpleMic", said app developer and sole proprietor of Atlantia Software Nick Bonatsakis. He added, "I am an avid instrumentalist and vocalist during my non-developer time, and I am constantly in situations where I am standing in the perfect spot relative to my iPhone while trying to capture an audio recording. With the addition of this Apple Watch app, I can now control my recording session without fumbling with my iPhone, it just makes things a whole lot easier." When asked about future improvements, Bonatsakis replied, "I'd love to be able to allow recording directly from the Apple Watch microphone, but sadly, the WatchKit SDK does not yet allow this. As soon as that ability is available however, I'll be adding that feature, as I think it would be very cool to be able to capture quick memos and such right from your wrist."

Feature Highlights:
* Apple Watch app to remote control audio recording
* Automatic iCloud Drive syncing for all audio recordings
* Support for iOS 8 Action and Sharing extensions

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

Pricing and Availability
Now including Apple Watch support, SimpleMic 1.4 is Free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Utilities category.

Nature Maestro Apps Empower Environmental Education through Sound

A new article has been published at prMac.

Nature Maestro Apps Empower Environmental Education through Sound - Published on 04/28/15

To celebrate Earth Week, Earth in Concert has announced the launch of Nature Maestro iPad apps: Rainforest Day, Rainforest Night, Glacier Bay, Expedition. Nature Maestro empowers environmental education through immersive audio-rich explorations of Earth's biomes. Build and share soundscapes with animal sounds recorded on location by Dennis Hysom in North and Central America and illustrations by Christine Walker. Record your voice with the sounds, learn animal facts, play audiovisual matching games.

Sebastopol, California - In celebration of Earth Week 2015, Earth in Concert has announced the launch of four Nature Maestro(R) iPad apps: Rainforest Day, Rainforest Night, Glacier Bay, and Expedition. Nature Maestro introduces students to Earth's biomes and animals through immersive audio and visual explorations. Students and adults use their creativity and imagination to build, compose, and share audio-rich soundscapes using authentic animal sounds recorded on location by Dennis Hysom in North and Central America. Animal and biome illustrations are hand-drawn originals by Christine Walker. "Not everyone is able to travel to a rainforest or sit there alone for hours at a stretch day and night," Hysom says. "Nature Maestro gives people a sense of immersion through a mobile app.

"Standing quietly in a rainforest and listening intently, away from any human-made noise, is transformative. There's a sense of connection to the natural world that is difficult to find in everyday life. It comes from being still and listening. It's like a meditation. Even a loud sound, like a howler monkey or scarlet macaw, can be joyful, thrilling." A sound recordist and composer with many music and nature albums and a major motion picture background ambience to his credit, Hysom had the idea for an app as a way to share his experiences of recording in nature.

Nature Maestro Rainforest Day and Nature Maestro Rainforest Night feature Costa Rican rainforest biomes. Nature Maestro Glacier Bay features Alaska's North Pacific coastal biome. Nature Maestro Expedition combines these biomes with an Earth in Concert section, including a world map for composing with all the animal sounds. The apps are enriched for educators and contain standards-aligned, project-based learning activities for classrooms and home schooling. Dr. John McCosker of the California Academy of Sciences provided review and validation of the animal facts included in the app.

Features:
* Compose soundscapes up to two minutes by arranging animal and weather sounds
* Record external voices to tell stories and imitate the animals
* Flip, rotate, and scale animals and nature elements to create scenes
* Add nature ambience, rhythms and melodies
* Preview and share soundscapes
* Play audiovisual matching games
* Listen and read-along verbatim to nature fun facts and glossary
* Experience stereo and panning effects when wearing earphones
* Map geo location and distance to the biome
* Use Field Notes to inspire project-based learning
* For children 6 to 11, parents and educators
* No in-app purchases or third-party advertising
* Nature Maestro Expedition is COPPA compliant

"In the long run, when it comes to protecting our Earth's great places, people with an affinity for nature will be more likely to make wise choices for our planet's health and for living in harmony with the natural world. In the short run, listening to nature develops patience, perseverance, and compassion," Hysom says. "When recording in the rainforest, you have to sit for a long time, waiting unobtrusively. A bird passes close by and you hear its wings flap and see its coloration. The feeling of being engulfed in a habitat, surrounded by wildlife, is profound.

"I'm grateful for the experiences I had composing a music and nature album series that took me to great places in North and Central America - from the Costa Rican rainforests to the Dakota's tall grass prairies, from the Caribbean to the Louisiana Bayou to Alaska's Glacier Bay," Hysom says. "With Nature Maestro, we wanted the apps to be distinguished not only by sound quality and visual beauty, but also by their ability to deliver rich, engaging experiences. We've created a versatile platform upon which to build more apps about more biomes throughout the world and present the content for immersive learning aided by mobile devices. In producing Nature Maestro, we are fortunate to be working with Island Innovation LLC for application design, development, and testing. Nature Maestro is built with Apple's SDK Xcode and uses Open AL, and the Amazing Audio Engine to ensure high sound quality."

Device Requirements:
* iPad iOS 7.1 or higher

Pricing:
Nature Maestro Rainforest Day $2.99
Nature Maestro Rainforest Night $2.99
Nature Maestro Glacier Bay $2.99
Nature Maestro Expedition $9.99

In celebration of Earth Week 2015, Nature Maestro Rainforest Day will be free for download on Wednesday, April 22. In alliance with Moms with Apps, Nature Maestro Expedition will be free on Friday, April 24. Nature Maestro apps are designed for learning and open-ended play and contain no in-app purchases or third-party advertising.

Twocanoes Ships Boot Runner 2 - Adds support for Virtualization

A new article has been published at prMac.

Twocanoes Ships Boot Runner 2 - Adds support for Virtualization - Published on 04/28/15

Twocanoes Software has released Boot Runner 2, an update to the premier OS startup manager for Macs. Boot Runner provides complete start up control and management of dual-boot Macs. Boot Runner 2 adds support for native and virtual operating systems in any combination of OS X, Windows, Chrome OS, Linux and more. It also includes new and improved customization features, making it easier than ever for users to find and start the OS environment that they need.

Naperville, Illinois - Twocanoes Software has announced the release of Boot Runner 2, the premier OS startup control manager for Macs. Boot Runner 2 adds support for virtual machines as startup disks, making it easy to offer a selection of any combination of OS X, Windows, Chrome OS, Linux, and other systems installed natively or in a virtual machine. Boot Runner 2 includes new customization options to make the startup selection screen easier for end users to find and start the OS environment that they need.

Boot Runner is an essential OS X boot management solution that delivers unmatched user and administrator control of the startup of a single Mac, a lab or a fleet of managed Macs. Now administrators can manage a wider range of environments using virtual machines as startup disks with a choice of hosts, including Parallels, VMWare Fusion and VirtualBox, to deliver the most versatility possible to Mac users and administrators.

A deep set of control options are available to administrators for remote startup of groups of machines for specific uses or to perform maintenance. Boot Runner scheduling enables administrators to ensure the availability of Windows or other operating systems during scheduled maintenance windows. Mass deployment of Boot Runner managed preferences or configuration profiles takes effect immediately, giving full remote and automated control of Mac boot behavior and state for all of the Macs under management.

The Boot Runner selection screen guides users to choose their system among the available startup disks. This selection screen is created by the administrator who uses Boot Runner to customize startup selections for their school or business with text and graphics.

"Maintaining Macs with multiple operating systems can be a challenge for IT", said Twocanoes CEO and Founder Timothy Perfitt. "Boot Runner 2 makes startup control easy with existing client management tools since it supports both Managed Preferences for OS X (MCX) and Configuration Profiles. This new version takes multi-boot control to a new level by adding the option to use virtual machines as startup disks. And, of course, Boot Runner's selection screen makes it easy for any user of a multi-boot system to select the environment they need for their school or job."

Boot Runner 2 includes the following features:

Disks:
* Support for Boot Camp partitions
* Support for virtual machines as startup disks (Parallels, VMWare Fusion or VirtualBox)

Administration:
* Schedule startup into specific OS for scheduled maintenance or group usage
* Remote management of boot selection
* Remote management of selection screen
* Display or hide restart button
* Display or hide shutdown button

Selection and Login:
* Menu bar boot selector
* Custom login options
* Auto-login to OS X account
* Auto-launch of virtual machine host
* Auto-logout and return to Boot Runner selection screen
* Control virtual machine shutdown and logout

Interface:
* Custom boot volume icons
* New screen customization options
* Customize selection screen popover text
* Customize marquee text formatting

Boot Runner 2 System requirements:
* Mac OS X 10.8 or higher including Yosemite 10.10

Optional:
Boot Camp partition, virtual machine operating system with a supported OS installed, such as Windows 7, Windows 8, Chrome OS, and Linux

Boot Runner 2 is available now at Twocanoes online. The upgrade is free to customers who purchased Boot Runner after January 1, 2015 or with active Support and Maintenance agreements. Volume & Educational pricing is available for any number of Macs. Boot Runner 2 Lab and Site Licenses now include free the first year of premium support and maintenance.

Art Authority Announces Year Five of Its Intern Program for Art Majors

A new article has been published at prMac.

Art Authority Announces Year Five of Its Intern Program for Art Majors - Published on 04/28/15

Art Authority, developers of the award-winning line of classic art apps, have announced year five of its Summer Intern Program for students majoring in art and art history. As in previous years, the program aims to provide students with experience working on a cutting-edge app within their field of study, while at the same time enhancing the database behind the Art Authority line of apps. Over past summers, interns helped add 25,000 works to the 75,000 work Art Authority collection.

Ashland, Oregon - Art Authority, developers of the award-winning line of classic art apps, have announced year five of its Summer Intern Program for students majoring in art and art history. As in previous years, the program aims to provide students with experience working on cutting-edge apps within their field of study, while at the same time enhancing the database behind those apps. Over past summers, interns helped add 25,000 works to the 75,000 work Art Authority collection.

College students majoring in any art discipline need only a computer and an Internet connection to apply for, and if accepted, participate in the program. Participants will work out of their homes and dorm rooms. The positions are unpaid, but course credit is often available. Students will also gain valuable real-world experience as the art field follows music, movies, books and photography into the online, digital realm. Information and an online application form are available on the Art Authority Summer Intern Program website.

"These programs have been very successful, with both interns and Art Authority learning a whole lot," said Alan Oppenheimer, president of Art Authority. "This summer we plan to build on that knowledge. For technology-focused students, we think working with our apps is a great alternative to a traditional art internship."

Although responsibilities will vary, many interns will concentrate on works of specific artists not already in the collection. Students will scour the Internet, libraries, and other sources for images and associated information that can be added to, or updated in the Art Authority database, where it is then used by Art Authority, Art Alert, and other components of the Art Authority line.

Art Authority for iPad is the only iPad Reference app to be named to both of Apple's Rewind "best of" lists. It brings over 75,000 high-resolution classic works of art to users' fingertips. Hailed as "an experience unlike any other" and "visually dazzling," the app professionally displays paintings and sculptures by over 1000 major western artists from ancient times through current-day. The app is in use by Seton Hill University and a number of other educational institutions worldwide. Art Authority for Macintosh and iPhone bring similar functionality to these devices.

Art Authority is the product of an innovative collaboration between two separate software companies, Open Door Networks and Project A. Art Authority's mission is the design, development and deployment of the best ways for users to experience art on their modern-day devices.

The already popular iBarcoder has gone through tremendous fixes to enhance the functionality and interface of the application. Codes such as code39 mod 10 and code39 full ASCII have also been added. The MacOS 10.10 Export to EPS has been fixed, and changes to the sequential barcodes printing have optimized iBarcoder's efficiency. To keep inline with a one-stop-shop approach, Cristallight Software has made several languages compatible with iBarcoder. It also supports Apple Address Book integration for encoding personal data as QR Code and Datamatrix 2D barcodes in plain text or in vCard format.

Small, mid-size, or large-scale organizations will benefit from the capability to create sequential barcodes for catalogs and retail operations. The powerful Sequential Numbers feature allows users to define the sequence in which barcodes are printed or exported. Barcode sequences can be created in two modes. The Counter mode creates the next barcode automatically, by constructing the next barcode data string from a user-defined prefix, starting number, and postix parts using the increment value. The Text File mode allows users to select a file containing the set of data strings from which to generate barcodes.

"Track and monitor product sales and distribution easily with custom created barcodes and QR codes from iBarcoder," stated Cristallight Software's Don Kurt. "This software saves business owners time and money and lets them customize the structure of the code to meet their needs without sacrificing quality."

System Requirements:
* OS X 10.7 or later
* 14.48 MB

Languages
* English, French, German, Italian, Russian, Simplified Chinese, and Spanish languages

Textkraft Pocket - your words on the Apple Watch

A new article has been published at prMac.

Textkraft Pocket - your words on the Apple Watch - Published on 04/28/15

infovole GmbH has announced Textkraft Pocket 1.2, an important update to their professional text editor for Apple iPhone and iPod touch. Textkraft Pocket offers a broad variety of high level features. The easy and precise cursor navigation, a variety of selection guides and extended built-in dictionaries with synonyms are complemented by a solid base of import and export functions, keyboard enhancements and styling options. Version 1.2 supports the new Apple Watch.

Neuss, Germany - infovole GmbH has updated the iPhone writing app Textkraft Pocket to include support for the Apple Watch. Textkraft Pocket, the professional writing app for the iPhone, now offers an Apple Watch text editor which directly synchronizes with many cloud services. No other text editor provides similar capabilities, which make writing on a smartphone as comfortable and productive: Extensive import and export features, easy and precise cursor navigation, selection guides, text styles, keyboard extensions and built-in dictionaries with synonyms are making this mobile text processor one-of-a-kind. The third comprehensive update in 6 months offers many new features.

Professional writers and translators know, text work is seldom finished in just one session. Authors most likely gain flashes of inspiration whenever they are AFK, on the move or in environments which are not compatible with iPads or iPhones.

Textkraft Pocket on the Apple Watch offers a simple solution to jot down these text fragments, ideas and raw formulations right on the spot into the right document - just in time before the idea is gone and without the need to rummage for the iPhone. But the app is not only perfect for mobile text work, it is also a helpful assistant for everyday tasks: To-do and shopping lists, cheat sheets and simple notes are perfectly placed on the wrist and always synced with other devices.

Textkraft shows a list of all open text documents on the Apple Watch. Thus, the user has direct access to content that is stored on Dropbox, Google Drive, iCloud documents, iCloud Drive, Microsoft OneDrive, Evernote, BOX or the local storage of the iPhone. All changes will be automatically synced with the original document in the cloud, without the need to operate on the iPhone.

Once a file is selected, the Apple Watch displays a compact overview of the text. All paragraphs are brought into a reduced three-line display that allows a fast orientation and specific access to content, even in comprehensive documents.

If a text passage needs to be edited, moved or marked, Textkraft switches into the paragraph editor. Text can be directly dictated into the Apple Watch. The iPhone transcribes the text and replaces or supplements the selected text or inserts a new paragraph into the document. Furthermore highlighters in various colors, functions to hide and move text passages and interactive check boxes for to-do lists are available.

The update of Textkraft Pocket is not only interesting for Apple Watch fans. The app provides many improvements, which raise the productivity of the writing process on the iPhone: Native Google Drive and Microsoft OneDrive support, a multilingual text to speech function, passcode protection with TouchID and the new "Extended Forward Delete" key for professional translators are some of the highlights.

Pricing and Availability:
Textkraft for the Apple Watch is an integrated extension of Textkraft Pocket for the iPhone. Textkraft Pocket 1.2 is available as a free update in the App Store today. New users can purchase the app for $3.99 / GBP 2.99 / Euro 3.99.

Berry Quest - First Colorful Berry Matching Game Launches on Apple Watch

A new article has been published at prMac.

Berry Quest - First Colorful Berry Matching Game Launches on Apple Watch - Published on 04/27/15

Robot 5 Studios announces Berry Quest, the addicting berry matching game that's specially crafted for the Apple Watch. Play the short, exciting rounds in all their animated glory on your wrist. Match three berries in a row to destroy them and rack up points. Combos rack up bonus points. Fully animated berries and lightning bolts add to the fun! The new Apple Watch game allows you to compete with other players via Game Center.

New York, New York - Robot 5 Studios announces Berry Quest, an addicting berry matching game that's specially crafted for the Apple Watch. Play the short, exciting rounds in all their animated glory on your wrist. This quick game is the perfect break during a long day. Match three berries in a row to destroy them and rack up points. Don't let them stack up to the top.

Why Does This Game Stand Out? Berry Quest has a complex grid of berries.

The added-score and level-up indicators appear, float upwards, and fade away, all animated above the game like you would expect on an iPhone app, but won't see in other companies' Apple Watch games. No other Apple Watch game has this kind of on-screen object interaction.

Features:
* Match three berries in a row
* Find match combos for extra points
* Fully animated berries, lightning bolt, and matching
* See how you match up with other Apple Watch players in the Game Center

Device Requirements:

A gentleman's luxury made with premium leather - cb Softcase for iPhone

A new article has been published at prMac.

A gentleman's luxury made with premium leather - cb Softcase for iPhone - Published on 04/27/15

cb innovations has announced the cb Softcase, one of the most luxurious smartphone cases for the Apple iPhone. The cb Softcase appreciates your iPhone just like a tailored suit provides the final layer of polish for any gentleman. This no-compromise leather case brings out the best traits of your favorite device. Finest Italian leather, a button made out of 935 Sterling silver and our very own cb Microfiber all work in synergy to provide maximum protection and superior design.

Baden-Baden, Germany - Luxury is not a synonym for squander. Luxury is a lifestyle. Those who live it set out for the highest quality possible, and prefer to buy fewer things as long as they offer high value. The iPhone is a luxury item: function, design, price, everything about it is luxury. But if you're looking for a protective case, you'll mostly be able to choose between cheap run-of-the-mill products that can be found at dollar kiosks and sub-par outlet stores.

Christopher Bohn of cb innovations at Baden-Baden, Germany: "We have spent a lot of time thinking about how we could revolutionize the classic leather case for smartphone - with a high end product that perfectly fits in with a tailored suit and expensive Oxford shoes. And what we came up with is the cb Softcase."

The "Classic Edition" cb Softcase is made out of finest Italian premium leather and shaped into a classic design which is reliable and noble at the same time. This leather cover can either hold an iPhone 5/5S or an iPhone 6 in order to protect it from scratches, dirt and impact. Your smartphone can always be pulled out of the case without any hassle.

Christopher Bohn: "We purchase our calf leather at a renowned Italian tannery, which produces in an environment-friendly and sustainable way. We've chosen this leather for its unique haptic and its natural texture. During production, we combine this one of a kind material with special nylon threads, natural oil lacquers and glue. Together, they make the cb Softcase naturally water- and dirt-proof."

Another unique feature is the inner lining, which is made out of our innovative cb Microfiber. This silky-soft fabric beds your smartphone and also cleans the display from annoying fingerprints when you pull it out of the case. cb Microfiber is known as the finest natural thread created by science. Each fiber is three times as fine as cotton and hundred times as fine as human hair. In spite of this, the material does not tear or give off fluff. On the back of the case, you will find subtle air vents, which have been burnt into the material by laser. They provide optimal air circulation for your phone and great acoustic, so you won't ever miss any calls again.

A great brand product needs to be labeled as such - and that's what the cb Button is for. Our very own goldsmith from Baden-Baden makes each button out of pure 935 Sterling silver, shaping and polishing it by hand. Rhodium plating makes sure that the silver does not oxidize. Each cb Button is only one millimeter high, so it does not get caught in the tightest of pockets.

Pricing and Availability:
The cb Softcase is available in the following colors: Happy Orange, Caramel Lion, Cherry Love and Black Night. It gets delivered in a noble present box. The classic edition will be available in May and can be pre-ordered right now for $175.00 (USD).

For those of you who are looking for even more luxury, we're offering 500 limited leather sleeve in a special gold edition - with a cb Button out of 750 (18 Karat) fine gold. This case with a price of $950.00 (USD) is available in the colors Royal Lion and Royal Ocean, Orange, Caramel Lion, Cherry Love and Black Night. It gets delivered in a noble present box. The classic edition will be available in May and can be preordered right now for $175.00.

Tamak released for iOS and Android - Play for the love of greed

A new article has been published at prMac.

Tamak released for iOS and Android - Play for the love of greed - Published on 04/27/15

Pinata Games today announces Tamak 1.0.2, its board-clearing puzzler for iOS and Android devices. Based around the concept of greed, gameplay takes place on a grid-based board using numbered tiles. Greed, by definition, is associated with wanting more. In Tamak it is the force that both rewards and entraps as you strive to breach its duality. With each turn you bring yourself one step closer to greatness. But as you teeter on the brink of glory, will your greed lead you to safety or your demise?

Adelaide, Australia - Greed, by definition, is associated with the desire for more. In Tamak it is the force that both rewards and entraps as you strive to breach its duality. With each turn you bring yourself one step closer to greatness. But as you teeter on the brink of glory, will your greed lead you to safety or your demise?

Tamak is a board-clearing puzzler by Pinata Games for iOS and Android. Based around the concept of greed, play takes place on a grid-based board using numbered tiles. These tiles are connected to each other to form chains that clear once they have the appropriate amount of connections. The aim is to gain as many points as possible from creating the longest chains. But the catch is that the more tiles you place on the board, the less space you have. However, the greedier you are, the better your reward. All of this means that you will have to plan carefully and think ahead. And just when you think you've got the hang of it, there's always something else to challenge you.

Tamak combines elements of classic puzzle and strategy games to create a unique experience that is unlike anything else on the market. It's distinct puzzle game elements make for a familiar feel, which in turn makes the core mechanic easy to grasp despite it's unconventional nature. The feeling of knowing that you are playing with the double-edged sword of greed heightens your planning awareness and keeps you constantly making decisions about how to play your way out of each situation.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 5.1.1 or later
* 53.7 MB

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

At Pinata Games we want to make games that are fun, original and casual. We want to make games that will challenge players in ways that they haven't previously experienced. Our first game, Magnetix, took twitch gaming to the next level by burning the finger tips of iPad users everywhere via screen friction. Now Tamak is aiming to make players culpable for their own greed via puzzle gaming. We (Nathan Pana and Jassa Amir-Lang) have been working together for nearly a decade. But it was only in 2012 that we decided to start creating games under the moniker of Pinata Games. Our unique debut title Magnetix for iPad had moderate success reaching the number one spot on the iTunes Store in both Spain and Brazil. It also won an FWA Mobile of the Day Award. Since then we have created two more titles, Revolve and Tamak. Our most recent is a unique puzzle about the duality of greed and it's risks and rewards.
