Waking Up Made Easy With Innovative Wrist Band - Published on 07/19/16
New Startup Luva Tech, trendsetter in Product Design and Innovation, introduces PokMinder, a wearable gadget, trains you to wake up early and helps you to replace bad habits with positive ones. Luva Tech is raising funds via a rewards crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo to finish the development of their revolutionary wearable technology. The company aims to raise $50,000 on Indiegogo to finish development, and produce the first batch of their latest invention.
Cochin, India, July 15, 2016 � New Startup Luva Tech, trendsetter in Product Design and Innovation, introduces PokMinder, an innovative wrist band that helps to form new habits. Luva Tech announced that it is raising funds via a rewards crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo to finish the development of their revolutionary wearable technology. The company set out to raise $50,000 on Indiegogo to finish development and produce the first batch of their latest invention that is going to change not only the wearable technology market but also the human lifestyle.
Founder, Hussain M T says waking up early is one of his favorite things. The morning is the perfect time for meditation, exercise and some quiet reading as the world has not begun stirring, he added. Moreover getting off bed early can give you extra time which can be utilized effectively. However, he said, he used to have oversleep habits during his graduation and he had to skip several classes. Later, after his graduation he found himself struggling seriously to get out of the bed for office. He figured out that he was not the only person who was fed up with their terrible wake up styles by pointing out a recent report which says almost 68% of people are neither able to wake up refreshed on time nor organized in their daily life. He started researching a solution, and eventually founded this innovative solution to break any bad habit and unlock one�s potential.
PokMinder wake up alarm works in different modes where one can choose the way they want to be woken up. It has basically three modes; Louder beep sound, even synchronous vibration, and mild electric stimulus. Combination of different modes are also possible. With low energy Bluetooth technology, the user can shock themselves or entrust someone to shock whenever they are induced to perform the same habit they wanted to quit or one can set manually a time to wake up early, form new habits, or break bad habits.
For instance, if a person wants to get rid of smoking or drinking too much alcohol, PokMinder can help them by hitting them with mild electric stimulus. This hitting occurs whenever one tries to break the rules. Eventually, you will get rid of bad habits permanently. Moreover the drive mode incorporated in PokMinder helps people to stay awake during long night drives.
The supportive functions of PokMinder are still more. PokMinder comes with an inbuilt storage, a voice recorder, fitness tracker and a phone finder. Unlike the other wearables in the market, PokMinder is a unique product which can influence the human life in every stage. It helps people utilize their time and energy in a more efficient way and transform their life like never before. PokMinder assures solutions to several problems people face in their daily life.
�Time is everything, but don't let time take control over you, you take control of your time� - Founder Hussain M T.

Norbert M. Doerner today announces NeoFinder 6.9.1 for Mac OS X.

Bonn, Germany - Norbert M. Doerner is proud to announce the release of NeoFinder 6.9.1 for Mac OS X, (formerly known as CDFinder). The new version offers an improved video contact sheet, and numerous fixes and improvements.
Features and Improvements of NeoFinder 6.9.1:
* You can now select multiple movies for the Video Contact Sheet, and NeoFinder will generate a cool contact sheet for each of them
* Detection of Alias files is much better now during cataloging; Due to an ever increasing number of bugs in Apples FSRef code in every new Mac OS X release, NeoFinder now uses more reliable standard unix calls to get information about Alias files
* The NeoFinder menu bar Global Find helper app is now properly codesigned
* Finding files based on their EXIF creation date now works properly
* Massively improved behaviour for cataloging certain malformed MPEG files with ffmpeg; NeoFinder no longer hangs there, but times out after 30 seconds, and proceeds with the next file
* Improved DiskCatalogMaker-Importer that works better with newer Export files
* Improved the Extensis Portfolio Importer with localisations; They save their export text file with translated headers, and NeoFinder will now recognise more of those
* Improved cataloging of certain MP3 tags edited by Metadatics.app
* Inserting copied Geotags into Found Items now works properly
* Improved the Cumulus CRE Importer for certain cases
* Improved the cataloging of certain Adobe Illustrator files that were pure EPS with no PDF data

* Fixes a problem when reading file comments during cataloging
NeoFinder Highlights:
Metadata - NeoFinder catalogs metadata of songs, movies, fonts, and photos, including the MP3-Tags of several audio file formats, EXIF, GPS, and IPTC data of photos, and also Adobe XMP data; All these are arranged clearly in the user interface, and can be extensively searched. For numerous photo and video formats, fonts, and text files, NeoFinder generates thumbnails during cataloging, displaying them in all list and icon views.
Integration - Offering a tight connection to major productivity tools, such as Adobe Creative Suite, Microsoft Office, Roxio Toast, FileMaker Pro, Apples Spotlight and Finder, and the extensive support of drag&drop into other applications, NeoFinder can support many workflow scenarios.
Geotagging - Only NeoFinder offers the integrated GeoFinder, which searches for photos taken near a spot, or the KMZ export for coordinates and photo thumbnails as a way to give geolocated photos to friends. NeoFinder can even geotag photos itself, no other software needed. And only NeoFinder displays amazing facts about any geolocation in the unique Wikipedia Inspector.
Networking - Store your catalog database on a server for access from all Macs in the network, and with the sidekick product abeMeda (was CDWinder for Windows) even from Microsoft Windows.
Mobile - Keep your NeoFinder database with you on your iPhone or iPad with the separate NeoFinder for iOS app.

Innovative new app for kids from 6: Busy Water - Think Outside the Tank - Published on 07/19/16

Paris, France - Award winning Edoki Academy today is proud to announce the release of Busy Water 1.1, their new educational app for iPhone, iPad, iPod touch and Apple TV (Soon to be available on Google Play). Perfect for children from the age of 6 and over, Busy Water offers a unique approach to educating children about gravity, states of matter and video game design.
Busy Water serves as a platform where children can practice reacting to tricky game scenarios in a controlled environment. The app also uses the iPad's accelerometer and gyroscope. Water plays a critical role in the Montessori method and that is why the States of H2O were put at the forefront of Busy Water. Children transfer, control and engineer water in every level, ultimately strengthening their agility, sharpening their critical thinking skills and truly learning about the States of Water.
The biggest innovation in Busy Water is its "Build Mode." Designed to unleash creativity, it offers endless possibilities and is truly the first step in game designing. The levels created can easily be exported and imported by friends using a simple code given by the app.
Features:

Open Busy Water on your Apple Watch for challenging trivia questions or on your Apple TV to access your virtual pet!
The award-winning prequels to this app, Busy Shapes and Crazy Gears, have over 6M games played. As the third installment of the series, Busy Water gives access to the same editor's platform their game designers use, leaving kids with endless gameplay scenarios. This app is a huge advancement in educational games as it puts children in the driver's seat and provides them the tools to become game designers.
Our mission is simple: make learning fun! We think that Busy Water perfectly embodies this goal through its challenging, amusing and sometimes addicting levels. With a growing team of professional game developers and skilled Montessori teachers, Edoki Academy confidently delivers exciting new content and tools for kids to discover and learn with." explains Marilyne Maugin, CEO at Edoki Academy.

Pixelmator 2.3 for iOS Adds Desktop-Class Selection Tools
A new article has been published at prMac.
Pixelmator 2.3 for iOS Adds Desktop-Class Selection Tools - Published on 07/19/16
Pixelmator Team today announces Pixelmator 2.3 for iOS, a major update to its full-featured, powerful, and fast image editor for iPad and iPhone. Pixelmator 2.3 for iOS brings an incredibly smart Quick Selection Tool, a powerful and precise Magnetic Selection Tool, features many improvements to the selection experience on iOS, such as a new, content-aware edge smoothing algorithm for the Color Selection Tool and an Invert Selection feature, and more.
Vilnius, Lithuania - Pixelmator Team today is very pleased to announce the release and immediate availability of Pixelmator 2.3 for iOS, a major update to its full-featured, powerful, and fast image editor for iPad and iPhone. Pixelmator 2.3 for iOS brings an incredibly smart Quick Selection Tool, a powerful and precise Magnetic Selection Tool, features many improvements to the selection experience on iOS, such as a new, content-aware edge smoothing algorithm for the Color Selection Tool and an Invert Selection feature, and more. Pixelmator 2.3 for iOS is available today as a free update from the App Store.
"With the Quick Selection and Magnetic Selection tools, Pixelmator for iOS becomes smarter and more powerful than ever, making it much easier to edit images with incredible precision on iPad and iPhone," said Saulius Dailide, one of the founders of Pixelmator Team. "Pixelmator for Mac users have already been using these two tools and their response has been fantastic, so we're really excited to be bringing them both to the most advanced image editor on a mobile device."
Thanks to its innovative selection algorithm, the Quick Selection Tool makes even the most complex selections intuitive and effortless. The advanced algorithm analyzes both the colors and the textures in an image to find the outline of the object being selected, so all you have to do is swipe over an area to select it. There is also a separate algorithm that ensures a perfect outline for the edges of the selection, so that it looks as natural possible when it is copied to another image or has any effects applied to it.
The Magnetic Selection Tool automatically snaps to the edges you trace and allows you to select detailed objects very precisely by simply guiding the selection using anchor points. To find the best outline for almost any object, the Magnetic Selection Tool uses a sophisticated algorithm based on the A* pathfinding method, which is also used to develop navigation algorithms in video games.
In addition to two new tools, the entire selection experience in Pixelmator for iOS has been refined and now includes an Invert Selection feature, an all-new and much faster marching ants design, a new selection mode and many subtle improvements to the way selections are made, combined, refined, and transformed.
Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 9.1 or later
* 104 MB
Pricing and Availability:
Pixelmator for iOS 2.3 is available exclusively from the App Store for $4.99 (USD). It is a free update to all existing customers who purchased the app from the App Store.

New Appiness iOS app marketing guide could not come at a better time
A new article has been published at prMac.
New Appiness iOS app marketing guide could not come at a better time - Published on 07/19/16
Marketing is what separates the winners from the losers in the App Store. Plenty of free information on app marketing already exists, but the new Appiness guide from Bright Newt has given iOS developers a step-by-step plan for effectively marketing their apps without breaking the bank. With cost-per-acquisition numbers trending upward over the past six months, Appiness couldn't come at a better time. A how-to marketing guide for turning duds into profitable apps.
San Ramon, California - Several different ad and promotion networks publish their cost-per-install (CPI) numbers and have reported an upward trend in recent months. Chartboost, for example, showed an increase from $1.99 per install in March 2015 to $2.21 in March 2016. Fiksu reported a $1.79 CPI in May 2016. These numbers represent a huge problem for iOS developers.
To help address this problem, Bright Newt has released Appiness, an iOS app marketing guide. Appiness could not come at a better time. In June 2016 Distimo reported that an app needs 23,000 downloads per day to rise to the Top 50 Free Overall. This means that app developers face a $35,000 /day spend if they want to achieve any real visibility.
"Most iOS developers simply can't afford the development and ongoing optimization costs required to build a freemium app," said Kyle Hartman, Chief Newt at Bright Newt. "And once they do finish an app, they can't afford to advertise and can't get their revenue-per-install high enough to make back their money. It's a Catch-22."
The Bright Newt team wanted to give iOS developers a hand by providing a how-to marketing guide for turning duds into profitable apps. Plenty of free information on app marketing already exists, but Appiness provides step-by-step instructions for inexpensive tactics, as well as "true tales of appiness" from successful developers.
The Appiness guide comes in three different packages at three price points - Basic Appiness for $38, Extra Appiness for $69, and Total Appiness for $118. Each package comes with an assortment of other tools and resources, such as submission and launch day checklists, comprehensive spreadsheets of app review sites and app-related services, various templates, and interviews with thought leaders in the mobile industry.
The bottom line is this: Scrappy marketing is what separates the winners from the losers in the app business. If iOS developers make a unique, beautiful, and entertaining (or helpful) app, and then execute a smart, inexpensive marketing plan, then their apps will gain visibility, get more downloads, and make more money. Appiness is the winners' new, not-so-secret weapon.
