ChangeTip Brings Social Tipping to On-The-Go World with Mobile App
A new article has been published at prMac.
ChangeTip Brings Social Tipping to On-The-Go World with Mobile App - Published on 11/10/15
California based ChangeTip has launched its much-anticipated mobile app. The startup's new app blends the offline and online world together seamlessly by allowing anyone with a phone number, email address, Facebook or Twitter account to send and receive money to and from each other internationally. The app can use both bitcoin and USD. Users can acquire both USD and bitcoin directly from the app quickly and easily, and top up their accounts on the go.
San Francisco, California - ChangeTip, the industry leader in social tipping and micropayments, has launched its much-anticipated mobile app. The startup's new app blends the offline and online world together seamlessly by allowing anyone with a phone number, email address, Facebook or Twitter account to send and receive money to and from each other internationally.
Social tipping is the expression of financial appreciation online. In a world where we still necessitate money to sustain ourselves, ChangeTip seeks to make the transfer of this value frictionless, seamless, inexpensive, fast and fun.
The company focuses specifically on the opportunity that micropayments - payments of values $25 USD and less - present to the world in terms of content monetization, social payments, charitable donations, and much, much more.
The ChangeTip Mobile app is another step in this direction. While nation states continue their moves to increasingly cashless societies, humans dependent on the generosity of others (tips) to make a living are being left behind by this digital shift. Furthermore, content producers and creators who live and work online see a large percentage of their income taken by the ads they need to have on their site. Charities and brands are still stuck in a non 21st century model and should take advantage of the power of money + social media to facilitate meaningful social change. Micropayments and social tipping seeks to change both these offline and online experiences.
The new mobile application works on iPhones. Upon opening the app, you are taken to directly to #Tipworthy, an experiment on generosity for content on the web. Users can post directly to the feed by tipping the content themselves. The feed is intended for content you appreciate, not content you create. The feed then appears live and in real time, indicating tips its earning, to all other users. Users can tip quickly with one-click to support content and causes they see in the feed.
A user's dashboard appears on the bottom of the app, showing them options to send money via Facebook, Twitter, SMS or e-mail, easily. Users can send tips internationally and for free to both friends and strangers alike. Users can also earn money via the "Earn" tab, and create their own financial expressions through monikers. The app is available for free in the Apple app store.
The app can use both bitcoin and USD. Users can acquire both USD and bitcoin directly from the app quickly and easily, and top up their accounts on the go. Instant transfers between bitcoin and USD means users have the choice of which currency to use, and when.
Many ask how this application is different from Venmo. Venmo is only available in the United States, and acts as a walled-garden, forcing users to transfer only using their channel. ChangeTip is available internationally, and allows people to pay via their preferred method: either SMS, e-mail, Facebook or Twitter.
"The future of finance is digital and mobile," explains Victoria van Eyk, head of community at ChangeTip. "The future of finance is about the transfer of true value between peers, internationally. Value transfer should be fast, inexpensive and fun."
ChangeTip allows people to express appreciation or pay other individuals or organizations via monetary "tips." Tips are sent natively within the chosen social media platform and allow users to transact seamlessly in the normal course of their Twitter, Reddit, SoundCloud, and other social media interactions. In this way, ChangeTip represents not only the next level of financial payment infrastructure, but also the next iteration of the Internet of Value.
Utilizing Bitcoin blockchain technology, the company's platform allows instant transactions between two parties. The company's product suite includes the Tip.Me widget, which allows any content producer (artist, writer, musician, publication, etc.) to accept tips via the ChangeTip platform.
* In keeping with American law and financial industry standards, the ChangeTip service is not available in FATF "non-cooperative" and other "blacklisted" countries such as Liberia and Myanmar.
Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 8.0 or later
* 22.1 MB
Pricing and Availability:
ChangeTip 1.0.1 is Free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Social Networking category.

ArtOptimizer for Adobe Illustrator Now Supports Mac OS X El Capitan
A new article has been published at prMac.
ArtOptimizer for Adobe Illustrator Now Supports Mac OS X El Capitan - Published on 11/10/15
Zevrix Solutions has announced ArtOptimizer 2.7.8, a compatibility update to its workflow automation solution for Adobe Illustrator. ArtOptimizer allows to reduce the size of Illustrator links and speed up processing by automatically eliminating excess image data and performing essential image adjustments. The software lets users save gigabytes of disk space, accelerate file output and cut costs through faster processing. The new version makes ArtOptimizer compatible with Mac OS X 10.11 El Capitan.
Toronto (ON) Canada - Zevrix Solutions has announced the release of ArtOptimizer 2.7.8, a compatibility update to its workflow automation solution for Adobe Illustrator. ArtOptimizer eliminates the excess image data of document links and performs essential image adjustments, thus helping users reduce the size of Illustrator job, accelerate document output and cut overall production costs.
The new version makes ArtOptimizer compatible with the recently released Mac OS X 10.11 El Capitan and is offered as a free update to the licensed users.
ArtOptimizer is a powerful automation solution for users of any trade, whether it's print, web or electronic publishing. For example, with just a click of a button users can:
* Scale images in Photoshop to match their dimensions in Illustrator
* Change image resolution to 300 dpi
* Convert all RGB images to CMYK
* Merge layers or delete hidden ones
* Run a Photoshop Action on each image
In the end of the processing ArtOptimizer reimports images to Illustrator at 100% in their precise position. As a result, the size of Illustrator links can be reduced dramatically - some images can shrink in size by half and more. ArtOptimizer is designed to benefit the workflows of printers, prepress bureaus, ad agencies and publishing houses:
* Save gigabytes of disk space
* Accelerate document output to printer and PDF
* Save endless hours of optimizing images manually
* Save valuable time transferring jobs to outside sources
* Cut costs through faster processing
In addition to ArtOptimizer, Zevrix also makes LinkOptimizer - a similar workflow solution for Adobe InDesign.
Pricing and Availability:
ArtOptimizer can be purchased from Zevrix web site for $119.95 (USD), as well as from authorized resellers. Trial is also available for download. ArtOptimizer requires Mac OS X 10.5-10.11 and Adobe Illustrator/Photoshop CS3-CC 2015.

San Diego, California - newMacgadgets has announced their new Apple Store Displays for the new iPad Pro scheduled for release this month.

Both are designed in clear acrylic to enhance the look and feel of the new iPad Air.
Counter-Top Model:
Designed for places where security is a concern, the all acrylic tapered counter-top display combines security with the elegance of the Apple store. Newly designed miniature stainless steel brackets secure the iPad Pro within the pocket allowing for better security and a cleaner look. They have also included a home-button guard bracket for applications that require continuous running. Our iPad Pro Mount secures to any counter-top with either clear adhesive strips or screws (both included).

When secured to the wall the iPad Pro conceals the mounting screws to prevent removal (mounting hardware is included). Depending on the user's preference, the mounting frame can be positioned in either the landscape or portrait position.

El Capitan Server - Foundation Services, Available in iBooks Store
A new article has been published at prMac.
El Capitan Server - Foundation Services, Available in iBooks Store - Published on 11/10/15
Carbon Technologies, LLC has announced "El Capitan Server - Foundation Services," written by Reid Bundonis and available exclusively in the Apple iBooks Store. The essential field guide for Mac system administrators and home enthusiasts alike, "El Capitan Server - Foundation Services" is a procedural deployment guide to ensure OS X Server is built properly from the ground up. Set the right foundation with "El Capitan Server - Foundation Services" and build stable and powerful OS X Servers.
Bernardsville, New Jersey - Carbon Technologies, LLC has announced the release of "El Capitan Server - Foundation Services," written by Reid Bundonis and available exclusively in the iBooks format in the Apple iBooks Store. "El Capitan Server - Foundation Services" focuses on the core foundation services required for the successful deployment of OS X Server in companies and schools of all sizes.
"El Capitan Server - Foundation Services" walks system administrators through the proper setup and integration of OS X Server. It is based on nearly two decades of experience deploying Apple operating systems and server products. Setting the proper foundation is critical to the long term success of OS X Server. Foundation Services walks readers through real-world deployment examples and offers extensive field advice, saving administrators time and eliminating frustration. Get up to speed rapidly and deploy a solid server from day one.
"El Capitan Server - Foundation Services" is targeted at system administrators responsible for OS X Server in enterprise, education, and small business. However, you don't need to be a seasoned veteran to benefit from the book. Examples and explanations can be followed by readers of all experience levels. Foundation Services is filled with practical advice and guidance on topics ranging from backup, to naming convention, to architecture planning. Start here to set a strong foundation.
El Capitan Server is Apple's latest evolution of OS X Server. OS X Server is a collection of core networking services, collaboration tools, and groupware products. It remains a Swiss Army Knife, packed with capable and useful tools for many different deployment targets. There are no hidden costs, no add-on packages, and no exotic hardware requirements. OS X Server is simply an un-carved block, waiting for a creative system administrator to achieve nearly anything imaginable. Beneath its simple facade hides powerful tools for serious work.
This is the third edition of "Foundation Services." Fully reviewed and updated for El Capitan and Server 5, "El Capitan Server - Foundation Services" provides a significant amount of new and updated content.
Chapters include:
* Introduction
* Installation
* DNS
* DHCP
* Directory Services
* RADIUS
* Caching Server
* Foundation Extras
* Change Log
In addition to these chapters, Foundation Services also covers Active Directory integration, System Integrity Protection, scripting and automation using cron and launchd, and valuable advice regarding backup, upgrading, workflow, and integration into existing infrastructure.
El Capitan Server - Foundation Services fully embraces the benefits of digital publishing and Apple's iBooks distribution model. The book will evolve as Apple updates Server.app and El Capitan. Buyers of the book can expect a consistent stream of updates throughout the life of El Capitan.
In addition, $1 from each sale will be donated to the American Cancer Society in the hope that future generations will not know the suffering and loss of cancer.
Reader Reviews of the Foundation Services Series:
"The documentation is extremely well written, clear and accurate. He has added to and updated my understanding of many aspects of the Mac server and done it with humor and great tone. I also like that he spoke of current best practices from real world experience. This is commonly missing from other technical books."
"This book is completely different. It is focused on using OS X Server in a larger enterprise environment, but even if all the text doesn't apply to my home server environment, I learn something new on just about every page. Mr. Bundonis has years of experience working with OS X Server in very large environments and it shows."
"In short, this book is a must-have for anyone setting up (OS X) Server using any configuration... In fact, many tips in this book could help those managing servers other than Maverick Server. Overall this probably is the best server book I have ever read. I only wish there was more of it. Apple you need to hire this guy to help write your documentation!!"
"The author continues to keep this book up to date with every maintenance release and also adds new content."
"Firstly, thanks for all the hard work - it was a most enjoyable and informative read."
"Your books have been so great that everything just works. Seriously, I read a few other books and nothing was as dead simple and easy to understand as your writing and the way you walk through stuff."
"This is really the server book I've been looking for since I started running a Mac server years and years ago. I'm anxiously awaiting the release of his other two books"
Device Requirements:
* iOS 8 or later
* OS X 10.9 or later
* Print Length: 207 Pages
Pricing and Availability:
"El Capitan Server - Foundation Services" is $12.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Operating Systems category.

Procreate 3 now available with iPad Pro and Apple Pencil support
A new article has been published at prMac.
Procreate 3 now available with iPad Pro and Apple Pencil support - Published on 11/10/15
Savage Interactive has announced Procreate 3, a major update to its Apple Design award-winning iPad app. One of the first apps to take full advantage of iPad Pro and Apple Pencil, Procreate 3 builds on the ground-breaking features of previous Procreate releases with 16K canvas resolution on iPad Pro. Procreate 3 also introduces Quickline, a breakthrough new feature for creating straight lines, along with completely customisable perspective guides and over 100 new features and refinements.
Hobart, Australia - Savage Interactive has announced the release and immediate availability of Procreate 3, a major update to its Apple Design award-winning iPad app. Version 3.0 includes over 100 features and refinements. This massive update also includes a new instant replay feature, support for iOS 9 Multitasking, and refinements to Procreate's interface for an unmatched experience with iPad Pro.
Procreate 3 comes alive with Apple Pencil. All 128 brushes have been engineered to take full advantage of pressure sensitivity, tilt detection and palm rejection. The remarkable accuracy of Apple Pencil lets you sketch with incredible detail and tilt for gorgeous shading effects, without the need to change tools. Using pressure sensitivity painting brushes react to your every movement, all while comfortably resting your palm on the screen thanks to the built in palm rejection.
According to Savage CEO and Co-founder James Cuda, "Procreate 3 on iPad Pro with Apple Pencil is a game changer. We were thrilled that the announcement video for Apple Pencil featured Procreate 3 almost exclusively, as the best application to demonstrate the power and precision of these devices. We can't wait for customers to try it out for themselves."
Procreate 3 has been designed for iPad Pro to give artists a more immersive experience than ever before. The powerful A9X chip inside the iPad Pro together with Procreate lets you create massive artworks: up to an incredible 16K in one direction. This unprecedented level of definition allows artists to create exceptionally detailed artworks and easily print in large formats.
"The incredible performance of the iPad Pro opened up new doors for what we could do with Procreate," said Chief Engineer Lloyd Bottomley. "On paper the iPad Pro is 2x faster than the iPad Air 2, but in practice we found that Procreate 3 on an iPad Pro delivers blazing performance, easily surpassing a high-powered desktop computer with competing software."
Building on Procreate's reputation for reinventing essential tools for multitouch comes Quickline, a new feature for creating precise straight lines. Just by holding at the end of a stroke, artists can rapidly create perfectly straight lines in exactly the right spot without changing tools or diving through menus. Quickline retains the texture and quality of each brush, allowing for versatile linework that matches any style.
Making its debut in Procreate 3 is the new Perspective Guide and Perspective Assist, allowing artists to easily create powerful custom perspective guides. The revolutionary Perspective Assist lets any artist draw in perfect perspective. Just turn on the Assist and every stroke will line up with the guide like magic. The Perspective features are available for a small in-app purchase of $1.99 US.
With full support for iOS 9 Multitasking, artists can use reference images alongside the canvas for inspiration, or continue communicating without leaving Procreate.
Procreate is the most powerful painting app ever designed for a mobile device. This complete artist's toolbox helps you create beautiful sketches, inspiring paintings and stunning illustrations anywhere you are. Procreate is an Apple Design Award Winner and App Store Essential featuring ground-breaking canvas resolution, 128 incredible brushes, advanced layer system and is powered by Silica 3: the fastest 64-bit painting engine on a mobile device.
Device Requirements:
* Compatible with iPad
* Requires iOS 9.1 or later
* Optimized for iPad Pro
* 86.8 MB
Pricing and Availability:
Procreate 3.0 is $5.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Entertainment category.

Art Authority announces the Art Channel for Apple TV

Art Authority announces the Art Channel for Apple TV - Published on 11/10/15
Art Authority, creators of the award-winning line of classic art-viewing apps for Apple devices, have announced the availability of the Art Channel for Apple's new Apple TV, free through the Apple TV App Store. The Art Channel, powered by Art Authority's database of over 100,000 paintings and sculptures from 1500 artists, provides Apple TV users with extremely high-quality images of classic works of art for display on their HDTVs.
Ashland, Oregon - Art Authority, creators of the award-winning line of classic art-viewing apps for Apple devices, have announced the availability of the Art Channel for Apple's new Apple TV, free through the Apple TV App Store. The Art Channel, powered by Art Authority's database of over 100,000 paintings and sculptures from 1500 artists, provides Apple TV users with extremely high-quality images of classic works of art for display on their HDTVs.
The first Art Channel show, included with the app, is The Best Ever, a hand-selected and hand-tuned set of the top paintings of all time. Masterpieces like Botticelli's "Birth of Venus" and Van Gogh's "Starry Night" hanging (often life-size) on a home's wall literally have to be seen to be believed.
The Art Channel is also more than just a bunch of pretty pictures. The detailed information behind each work of art earned the Art Authority K-12 app designation as one of Apple's five "Real World Learning" selections for 2015, and much of that information is readily available with each work of art on the Art Channel. Additional groundbreaking features from the Art Authority line, such as Art Real Size, Art Like This, and Art Near Me, are also planned for the Art Channel.
"Just as with the iPhone and iPad, Apple's opening up Apple TV to apps will add another dimension to the platform," said Alan Oppenheimer, president of Art Authority. "We're pleased that, just as with those two devices, we're able to provide a great art app on day one for the Apple TV as well."
Additional details on the Art Channel app, and the Art Authority product line, are available on the Art Authority website and blog.

Martini Storyboarding Plug-in Now Supports Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2015
A new article has been published at prMac.
Martini Storyboarding Plug-in Now Supports Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2015 - Published on 11/09/15
PowerProduction Software, and MacVideo Promo announce that the Martini v2 storyboarding plug-in now supports Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2015 on Mac and PC. Loaded with hundreds of shot styles, Martini's easy-to-use interface guides editors through the quick creation of composite shots. Editors can choose from hundreds of pre-loaded interiors, exteriors, and custom digital location photos. Martini also supports Apple Final Cut Pro, Avid Media Composer, Sony Vegas Pro, and Sony Movie Studio Suite.
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania - PowerProduction Software, a leading developer of visualization software for film and video production, and MacVideo Promo, a promotion company that offers exclusive deals on tools for video editors, announce that the Martini v2 storyboarding plug-in now supports Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2015 on Mac and PC.
Martini is a revolutionary post-production plug-in that brings the creativity of visualization into video editing. Rather than breaking the flow of a work-in-progress with "white-text-on-a-black-background" slugs, Martini easily creates shots that look like scenes that have yet to be shot. Loaded with hundreds of classic and unique shot styles, Martini's easy-to-use interface guides editors through the quick creation of composite shots. Editors can select a style, such as basic over-the-shoulder shots, two and three shots, and close-ups, as well as fight scenes, chase scenes, and other pre-composed multiple shot sequences. Then, editors can choose from hundreds of pre-loaded interiors, exteriors, and custom digital location photos.
"By bringing visualization into post, Martini helps editors develop missing shots using artwork from within their editing software," comments Paul Clatworthy, CTO, PowerProduction Software. "With Martini, slugs better represent a plan for missing shots, and editors can create sequences that better illustrate ideas for pickups. Martini lightens the load on editors and directors and allows clients and crew to better visualize a work in progress project."
Martini supports the following video editing applications:
* Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2015, CC 2014, CC, CS6, CS5.5, CS5, or CS4 for Mac or Win
* Avid Media Composer v8.x, v7.x, or v6.x for Mac or Win
* Apple Final Cut Pro X, v7, or v6
* Sony Vegas Pro v13 or v12
* Sony Movie Studio Suite
Martini is available for purchase from the all-new Martini website for a limited-time price of $99 (USD). The regular price is $200 (USD). Download a free 30-day trial.

Dot Com Infoway releases infographic highlighting Apple's iOS 9 update - Published on 11/09/15
Dot Com Infoway has released its newest infographic highlighting the exciting new details of Apple's iOS 9 operating system. Developers, marketers and end users have looked forward with anticipation to the new release, and DCI's easy-to-follow infographic serves as a guide to some of the most important and innovative features and enhancements. In addition to new user-friendly features, Apple has also made improvements on the back end to make the user experience better than ever.
Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India - Dot Com Infoway (DCI), a leader in providing offshore IT outsourcing solutions for businesses around the world, has released its newest infographic highlighting the exciting new details of Apple's iOS 9 operating system. Developers, marketers and end users have looked forward with anticipation to the new release, and DCI's easy-to-follow infographic serves as a guide to some of the most important and innovative features and enhancements.
DCI's handy infographic delivers, in one easy location, all the details about iOS 9's across-the-board changes and enhancements, including new multitasking features on iPad, and features that make Siri even more lifelike and useful. On the back end, Apple brings enhancements to performance, battery life and security. DCI's infographic goes into detail to describe the benefits and new features, which include a new News app, updated Notes app, transit directions in Maps, convenient additions to Apple Pay's wallet, a new feature that lets you use CarPlay without plugging in, and an intelligent feature called Proactive that learns your behaviors to help get things done before you even know they need doing.
According to DCI's infographic, in addition to new user-friendly features, Apple has also made improvements on the back end to make the user experience better than ever. The informative infographic explains Apple's new low power mode, which helps prolong battery life; and also notes that iOS 9 requires significantly less storage space. Overall performance is faster and more responsive also due to the addition of Metal. Apple has also made the OS even more secure with the addition of a six-digit passcode and two-factor authentication, and the ability to securely transfer contacts, message history, mail accounts, and bookmarks simply with a new "Move to iOS" app.
"Developers, marketers and end users have been looking forward to this major update, and as one of the premier thought leaders in iOS app marketing and development, we wanted to publish an easy resource that offers an in-depth look at the new features, functions and back-end improvements," said C.R. Venkatesh, CEO of Dot Com Infoway.
The infographic is an essential starting point for developers, handily summarizing the new release's best features. In addition, end users will appreciate the easy to read infographic, which brings to light iOS 9's most important features, functions and improvements that will make the iOS 9 experience even better than ever.

Meditation Apps - First Website Covering Meditation Apps
A new article has been published at prMac.
Meditation Apps - First Website Covering Meditation Apps - Published on 11/09/15
Meditation Apps launches their new website, specializing in writing reviews about apps for meditation & mindfulness. The website will be also publishing comparison charts of meditation apps to make it easy for users to choose the app that best fits their needs. Meditation offers a way to become free from any external influence, making way for you to truly become yourself. The website will serve as a place for users to share their experiences of using apps for meditation & discuss it with others.
Denia, Spain - A new web-site Meditation Apps has been launched to write reviews about apps for meditation and mindfulness. The web-site will be also publishing comparison charts of meditation apps to make it easy for users to choose the app that best fits their needs. Also, it will be a place for users to share their experiences of using the apps for meditation and discuss it with others. The web-site covers apps like Headspace, Zenify, Omvana, Calm, Smiling Minds, Stop Breath and Think, etc. Meditation Apps will be the first web-site specializing only on apps for meditation and mindfulness.
What is meditation? Over the course of a day, most of the mental energy we expend is spent thinking, talking, or working on something, etc., mostly in a very unconscious way. In meditation, however, all that mental energy is redirected to the part of the brain that is responsible for witnessing and perceiving. Meditation is a watching, non-doing state of mind. It is often mistakenly believed that in meditation, there should be no thoughts or emotions. While that is a desirable state, it is not a requirement. As long as the meditator is watching those thoughts and emotions, that can be considered meditation.
There are many different types of meditation, some of them are passive (for example, silent sitting), some involve physical activity (like walking or dancing), but there is one thing in common for every meditation, and that is watching. In any meditation, you are supposed to watch. The objects of your watching may be different - breathing, bodily sensations or anything else - but the focus on watching is the same. In a way, meditation is a training for the observational capability of the human mind. Why is it important? Because watching means being present in the moment, being conscious, and that is opposite to living unconsciously where you are not at the controls, but your unconscious is.
The problem with living unconsciously is your unconscious is full of different (often contradictory) programs that make our lives miserable. Being conscious is the first step to taking charge and living your own life. Your unconscious is influenced by society, family, past generations, and past lives. All that baggage is burdening our lives, making it difficult to enjoy and celebrate it. Meditation is the way to become free from any external influence, making way for you to truly become yourself.

Denia, Spain - A new web-site Meditation Apps has been launched to write reviews about apps for meditation and mindfulness. The web-site will be also publishing comparison charts of meditation apps to make it easy for users to choose the app that best fits their needs.

What is meditation? Over the course of a day, most of the mental energy we expend is spent thinking, talking, or working on something, etc., mostly in a very unconscious way. In meditation, however, all that mental energy is redirected to the part of the brain that is responsible for witnessing and perceiving. Meditation is a watching, non-doing state of mind. It is often mistakenly believed that in meditation, there should be no thoughts or emotions. While that is a desirable state, it is not a requirement. As long as the meditator is watching those thoughts and emotions, that can be considered meditation.

Mozart 2 Pro for iOS Released
A new article has been published at prMac.
Mozart 2 Pro for iOS Released - Published on 11/09/15
New York based RoGame Software announces the release of Mozart 2 Pro for iOS. Mozart is a tool for musicians of all kinds to improve their music reading skills in an entertaining casual game and has been around since the early days of the first iPhone. The new pro version features an overhauled game engine, 5 new instruments, 128 instrument sounds and looks better than ever. 14 new and important features make Mozart 2 Pro the must-have music reading game for students and professionals alike.
Rochester, New York - RoGame Software today us proud to announce the release of Mozart 2 Pro for iOS. Mozart is a tool for musicians of all kinds to improve their music reading skills in an entertaining casual game. One of the first decisions made when updating the venerable Mozart app was that the next generation should run on iOS devices universally. The iOS family has become rather large over the last couple of years with many new screen sizes like the iPhone 6 Plus, the iPad Mini and iPad Pro, so this was no small undertaking. The result is a much improved layout on iPhones with larger buttons, better legibility and better use of screen real estate on the new iPads as well. The new universal app is also family sharing enabled. As a result one copy of Mozart 2 Pro can now be used on up to 5 iOS devices across the entire family.
Another important issue addressed in Mozart 2 Pro was the overall handling of clefs. Clefs were assigned globally in previous versions which was not optimal. In Mozart 2 Pro clef selection is based on the instrument. There are instruments for which there is only one possible clef like the new double bass instrument. Others like the guitar now have 2 - 3 possible clefs and yet others up to 5. Mozart 2 Pro also explicitly uses "octave-dropped" treble and bass clefs where indicated. Not to stop there it also introduces a grand staff option available in several instruments when run on an iPad. Clef selection itself has been moved out of the settings window. Instead a new window has been added and appears when the current clef in the notation view is tapped.
Ranges are an important part of Mozart. During the game the range of tested notes is increased steadily with each level to eventually include several octaves with ledger lines above and below the staff. Mozart 2 Pro adds functionality to visualize this concept better. One new feature in this regard is the completely overhauled level announcement. Instead of just offering a brief pause between rounds it now shows the range of the coming level in music notation. More importantly Mozart 's scale indicators were also refactored. Instead of marking all notes of the current key on the instrument, scale indicators in Mozart 2 Pro also mark the current range. Additionally scale indicators can now be configured to show scale degree, note name as well as tone syllable. Thus in level one for example there are only 5 named and highlighted indicators on the piano instrument. This feature met with tremendous approval by testers and makes for much more focussed game play.
Speaking of game play and tester approval the one new feature that was best liked overall should be mentioned here. It is called "Do Over". Do Over in essence allows the player to repeat the last game exactly. In Mozart there are only get 3 initial life points so one mistake can easily cost the game. With Do Over one can now just tap the Do Over button to load the last game and give it another shot. Multiple do overs in a row are supported and will repeat a game not only with the exact pitches but with all game characters, jump hoops and all abandon. Do Over - new in Mozart 2 Pro.
Another area that was addressed in this new generation of the Mozart game was that of game characters. Since the game is all about music notation a slight rule change was implemented to introduce half notes as well as quarter notes. In previous versions the spacing between notes became gradually denser in the higher levels. That has been changed in lieu of constant rhythmic spacing and the staggered addition of first half and then quarter notes. This makes for a much more realistic reading experience and improves the educational aspect of the game. To counterbalance this new game play a bit two new game characters were added as well.
One of these characters is called "Double Time". The rotating Double Time cubes occur early on in Mozart 2 Pro and if identified incorrectly will speed up the note movement for rest of the level. These characters provoked a lot "Oh No!" exclamations by testers but often amazed the players themselves when they found that they were able to stay alive for the duration.
The second new game character is another favorite. It occurs in the upper levels of the game and is simply called Detonator. When a detonator is identified correctly it will clear the entire staff by detonating all remaining notes in quick succession. From an educational point of view quite ingenious because most player will wait until the last moment to clear as many notes as possible which means pre-positioning their fingers and reading those notes rather quickly.
Instruments are essential in the Mozart game and Mozart 2 Pro adds the entire classical string instrument family. Violin, viola, cello and double bass - all feature instrument specific clef choices and ranges. As an added plus some some lesser common options that are already available for instruments like the guitar were implemented also. As such all of these instruments support left-handed stringing and maybe more importantly string detuning. String detuning or scordatura can throw the most experienced reader for a loop, yet there are many works in the classical repertoire that require one or more strings to be tuned differently. With Mozart 2 Pro scordatura as well as reading in alternate clefs can now be practiced in a casual game for the entire classical string family. Yet another new instrument added is the 5-string Banjo. It also comes with string detuning and support for left-handed stringing.
Mozart 2 Pro does not only add instruments, it also changes what they can do. One example of that is called "Missed Note Highlighting" which pretty much does what it says. Any diatonic note that vanishes after hitting the clef area is now highlighted on the instrument for a second or two so one knows what it was the next time around. Another new instrument feature is the note info view. Between games any key or position played on an instrument now displays a small window with that note in music notation. A great way to look up any note one might have missed during the game.
There are many more new additions like the improved Pause mechanism or the remaining notes indicator that lets one know how many notes are left in a level. Or the many added animations, the completely revamped mandolin instrument, the last score highlighting in the top ten list or the new instrument graphics in general. One final tidbit however has to do with sound. The Mozart 2 Pro app comes with 128 instrument sounds, no add-ons needed!
Instruments:
* Letters (C, D, E), Solfege (Do, Re, Mi)
* Banjo, Bass, Cello, Double Bass, Guitar, Mandolin, Piano, Viola, Violin
Quick Features:
* Universal app
* Can be shared on up to 5 iOS devices with family sharing
* Much improved game play
* 128 instrument sounds
* Half and quarter notes plus new game characters
* Do Over feature
* Missed note highlighting
* Note Info Views
* Grand staff and "octave-dropped" treble and bass clefs
* Improved range visualization
* MIDI support for class-compliant devices
* New documentation website
Designed for the beginning musician as well as the professional, Mozart 2 Pro is an excellent tool towards better reading in 12 minor and major keys, for practicing Solfege, unfamiliar keys, clefs or just to have fun while learning. Guitarists will find the Training Mode a valuable tool to study unfamiliar positions or maybe explore new open tunings. Pianists may want to improve on bass clef reading and the upper levels of the game are challenging for the most advanced musician with double-flats, double-sharps and occasional key signature switch.
Language Support:
Mozart 2 Pro is localized into Chinese, Danish, Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Norwegian, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish and Swedish.
Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 8.0 or later
* Universal Application

From customizable routes, to rates comparisons, to even being able to pay for a flight via Apple Pay, we've done everything possible to make the app as convenient to use as possible."

The convenience of Takeoff360 doesn't stop at making it easy to find flights and compare pricing and availability. The app also makes it easy to pay for a charter flight. A number of secure payment options are offered, such as Apple Pay, Amex, Visa, MasterCard, and wire transfers. Users can even schedule Uber pickups at their destination, all from within the app. Takeoff360 also takes advantage of a number of iOS 9 features, including Touch-ID support, Add to Wallet, Apple Pay, iPad support (the app is optimized for the upcoming iPad Pro), and so much more.
Takeoff360 users can also earn discounts on future trips. Users who refer a friend can earn $250 towards future trips when the friend books a charter flight via Takeoff 360. The referred party also gets a $250 discount on their booking. All users can rest assured that Takeoff360 will never require membership fees, initiation fees, or subscriptions.
Takeoff360 is neither an air carrier, aircraft operator or aircraft charter broker: TakeOff360 neither operates aircraft, nor provides air transportation services. TakeOff360 holds no Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) or US Department of Transportation authority or certification to operate as an air carrier. TakeOff360 provides an online "marketplace" to facilitate the sourcing, reservation and booking of air charter flights.
