Vela App Inc. Partners with Spotify to Offer One Touch Voice Search - Published on 04/03/14

Vela App Inc. has announced a new partnership with Spotify to deliver the first voice control app designed for the popular streaming music service. Effortlessly search Spotify's music service, with your voice as well as navigate through songs, albums, and artists. Voice Search for Spotify 1.0 shows a large microphone button, and requires only a single touch to activate it. Once activated, the voice control allows the user to verbally interact with the app, for instant access.

Aliso Viejo, California - After enjoying success as a finalist in last year's South by Southwest (SXSW) Music Accelerator, Vela App Inc. has announced a new partnership with Spotify to deliver the first voice control app designed for the popular streaming music service. The app, available on the iTunes App Store for $0.99, creates a hands-free experience where the user can simply speak a song and artist's name, to have the song automatically play.

The intuitive app shows a large microphone button, and requires only a single touch to activate it. Once activated, the voice control allows the user to verbally interact with the app, for instant access. The voice control tool functions as a wonderful complement to Spotify's recently released Connect feature, which allows Spotify music be played over any home audio setup. The Voice Search app can also be extremely useful when used with Bluetooth or iPhone cable connections in the car.

"In addition to convenience, safety was a motivating factor in the development of Voice Search," said Joscelyne Mason, Public relations Manager at Vela App. "The ability to interact by voice while driving creates a safer travel experience, and of course makes Spotify more searchable and convenient to use at any time - whether at home, on the road, or in any other location."

Voice Search for Spotify is Vela App's second app on the marketplace. Their first app, which won wide acclaim at the popular SXSW music festival, debuted their innovative voice control app for iPhone and was chosen as a finalist out of a field of more than 500 competitors in the SXSW Music Accelerator competition.

Vela app has received positive reviews from some of the Web's most prominent publications, including Gizmodo, The Next Web, and others. Highly accurate and easy to use, the action is fast, with the song playing almost immediately after the title is spoken.

* Quick search function
* One touch use

Gdansk , Poland - Now available from the imaginative game developers at Light Echo, Final Dusk was created from scratch to create a unique experience that is unlike any other game.

Who will be her guide as she battles enemies and faces challenges of wit and dexterity?

The app takes players on a journey through the kingdom of Vempire, the land of vampires. Players will guide and protect Princess Mina, as she makes her way to the witch's tower. As players dive deeper into the land of Vempire, they will meet unique characters such as Yavanna, the Blue Witch, and Gratel Urdan, a skilled huntress.

"We've combined a fascinating and entertaining storyline with dazzling manga-style illustration," said Krzysztof Barela, CEO of Light Echo. "Combining challenging puzzles with action, excitement and mystery, Final Dusk is sure to entice players of all ages as they are drawn into the story."

The game is divided into four chapters, each abundant in missions. With each new chapter, players unlock a new set of magical abilities. For instance, players can turn into a bat or cast an illusion to distract Mina's enemies. With each new power, there are two modes of play depending on the environment the player is in.

App "Dashboard for Google Analytics" leverages website success - Published on 04/01/14

Velyoo announces Dashboard for Google Analytics 4.0. Google Analytics conversions, revenue or visitors in real-time and all at a glance on the iPhone. The app boosts the efficiency and effectiveness of busy managers, business men or bloggers.

Zurich, Switzerland - Velyoo is pleased to announce Dashboard for Google Analytics 4.0. The app brings Google Analytics conversions, revenue or metrics to a user's iPhone or iPad and allows to monitor the website's performance anytime and in real-time.

The reports can easily be segmented for a professional in-depth analysis by just selecting a KPI on the dashboard. So identifying the most converting search keywords, the campaign with the highest ecommerce revenue, or the number of orders via mobile devices is just a matter of seconds. This is why the app is an extremely powerful must-have tool for managers and business men.

Features:
