Tonido Launches iOS App to Access, Share and Stream Personal Media

Austin, Texas – Access media files from any location while enjoying the security, privacy and unlimited storage of a personal server with Tonido 4.0.2. Developed by CodeLathe, the leader in personal cloud software and services, Tonido lets individuals watch videos, listen to music, see photos and open documents that are stored on their computer right from their mobile iOS device. Users can now share their personal media without worrying about the privacy and security of their data.

“The Tonido iPhone/iPad app is the result of a development team that strived to bring users an enhanced experience through pleasing aesthetics and effortless remote access and sharing. It is extremely simple to use and is perhaps one of the most functional and beautiful apps on the iTunes App Store. Tonido also supports a wide range of video and audio formats including MKV and FLAC. It is a must have app for anybody who has a large digital media collection,” said Anis Abdul, CTO of CodeLathe.

Tonido offers users secure access to their home computer’s entire collection of documents, photos, music and videos from anywhere without having to upload it to a public cloud service. Individuals begin by downloading the free Tonido server app on their desktop and the free mobile app onto their iOS device. Employing smart LAN switching technology to use gigabit access speed within home LAN networks, the app safely connects users to the documents stored on their desktop in seconds. Users can also access their files via WiFi or 3G mobile networks, backup their photos and videos from their iPhone/iPad to their Tonido personal cloud, and download files for offline viewing.

“More than ever, customers are realizing that their personal data is no longer safe and secure in popular online services and they’re turning towards personal cloud services like Tonido for their remote access and sharing needs. Increasingly, leading public cloud services are using user’s personal data stored in their servers as a new source of income. These aggressive monetization efforts put the integrity of personal data at grave risk. In truth, there is no guarantee on privacy of personal data once it leaves an individual’s device or computer. Thankfully, customers have an alternative choice in Tonido, one that provides easy access to their personal data from any iOS device, just like a public cloud, but without sacrificing the data ownership,” said Madhan Kanagavel, CEO of CodeLathe.

Feature Highlights:
* Automatic, multi-format live video transcoding and streaming (including MOV, MP4, M4V, MPG, MPEG, AVI, VOB, MKV, WMV, XVID, FLV, SWF, OGG, GP3, MTS, M2TS). Requires no manual conversion of video files for playback
* Automatic multi-format music streaming and playlist support (including FLAC, OGG, WMA, MP3, and more)
* Tonido companion server apps are available for all computer platforms: Windows, Mac OSX and Linux
* Plug- and-Play remote access. No fiddling with router settings
* Easy to remember web URL access to your computer
* Stream Music and Videos to Apple TV using Airplay

Language Support:
English, Italian, Japanese

Device Requirements:
* iPhone 3GS/4/4S/5, iPod touch (3rd/4th/5th generation), and iPad
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later
* Universal app optimized for display on all iOS devices
* 10.5 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Tonido 4.0.2 is free and available worldwide through the App Store in the Productivity category. The Tonido server app is available for free download on the Tonido website. For more information on the Tonido iPhone/iPad app please their website.

Pixels on Toast Launches New Game: Food Run for iOS

Edinburgh, United Kingdom – Independent game developer, Pixels on Toast, today introduces Food Run 1.0.5 for iOS. Food Run is a level-based platform game, combining a simple one-touch interface with old school platformer gameplay.

With colorful characters based on popular foodstuffs such as strawberries, bananas and popcorn, Food Run is presented using crisp cartoon visuals.

The goal in Food Run is to reach the end of the level, collecting all the foods and stars along the way. As foods are liberated from their floating bubbles, they start following the player, joining the food chain behind. Whilst the foods in the food chain can stomp enemies, they can also be killed, so careful management is required.

Once individual foods have been collected, they are added to the collection of foods that the player can use as their lead food hero. This collection mechanic drives the player to not only complete levels, but to find everything, with some foods being more rare and difficult to find than others.

Kevin Ng, founder of Pixels on Toast and creator of Food Run says, “The idea was to create a game with a really simple one button interface, but to marry that with a complex and fully formed old school platform game engine. By the end of the game, you’ll be surprised by just how intricate and demanding the levels can be. Finding all the foods hidden in the levels is a real challenge.”

An animated live action video trailer was created to accompany the launch of Food Run. Characters from Food Run were composited into real life footage to introduce the game to new players.

Food Run features 40 levels at launch, spread over 4 visually distinct chapters such as “Sunshine Valley” and “Moonbase Stilton”. The game features 5 polka inspired tracks from jazz musician Skip Peck, adding to the quirky flavor of the game.

Features Highlights:
* 40 levels of increasingly fiendish enemies and traps spread over 4 game worlds
* Sync your game progress between iOS devices using iCloud (iOS 5.0 and later required)
* Earn Game Center achievements as you play
* Retina Display and iPhone 5 widescreen support

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
* Requires iOS 4.3 or later
* Universal app optimized for display on all iOS devices
* 37.9 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Food Run 1.0.5 is only $0.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide through the App Store in the Games category.

PhoneSheriff iPhone Parental Control Launches Live Location Tracking

Jacksonville, Florida – Retina-X Studios announces the launch of PhoneSheriff 2.0, a mobile parental control and filtering software compatible with iPhone. The software allows parents to monitor and block anything their child does on their smartphone. PhoneSheriff now includes real time GPS tracking on a map in an entirely new interface. The hybrid system has won the 2013 TopTenReviews online Gold Award for two consecutive years.

According to the Pew Research Center, 75 percent of all teens ages 12-17 now have a mobile phone. They report that half of all teens send at least 50 text messages daily, and one in every three send at least 100 text messages each day. With the rise of sexting (sexual texts), coupled with mobile phones being used for bullying, and by predators, many parents can benefit by turning to PhoneSheriff 2.0.

“The number of teens using phones is on the rise, and so is the number of ways that they are using them,” explains Craig Thompson, spokesperson of Retina-X Studios. “Parents may feel they are at a loss in keeping tabs on them, but with our software they maintain all the control they need in order to help keep their child safe and out of trouble.”

Employers also turn to PhoneSheriff 2.0 in an effort to monitor the phones they provide to their employees. It provides them an opportunity to ensure they are conducting business on the phone, and that they are not engaging in such things as viewing pornography. Employers find that it helps to improve productivity and accountability, as they can keep a closer watch on where their employers are and what they are up to on company time.

Some of the features that PhoneSheriff 2.0 provides include:
* Full parental, or employer, controls allowing the registered user to place filters, blocks, and monitor all activity conducted with the phone. With this, particular apps or Web browsing can be restricted, and SMS/calls can be blocked
* Placing time restrictions, such as when calls are and are not allowed, or times that the phone cannot be used at all
* Monitoring of all content that is accessed with the mobile phone. Whether someone is going online, sending a text message, or taking a picture, everything is recorded so that registered users can access the detailed info at their convenience
* Providing instant GPS location and device lock capabilities, as well as alert message notification if the SIM card has been changed

New features that PhoneSheriff 2.0 offers include real time tracking, where users can view their child or employee’s locations on a map as they are happening. There is now also a custom profanity alert option, and Geofencing feature, which allows parents, or employers, to receive notification when the person has left a specific geographic area.

“Most parents want their teen to have a phone if only for having the ability to reach them at all times,” adds Thompson. “But there are so many issues that can come up it just makes sense to use a monitoring software. It puts to rest all the questions and finger crossing that they are doing the right thing with their phone.”

PhoneSheriff 2.0 is compatible with Android, iPhone, and Blackberry. Working in stealth mode, the person is not aware that the software is in use. Even when they believe they have deleted all their history on the phone, PhoneSheriff 2.0 compiles the information so that the registered user can log in and view it at any time, from anywhere.

PhoneSheriff 2.0 provides all of these benefits and the security for only $49.97 USD per year.

Retina-X Studios (RXS) manufactures software that let users monitor their individual computer, tablet or mobile devices. The monitoring systems help parents monitor and restrict their child or employee’s technology usage.

Grokr launches on iOS and tries to one-up Google Now

Also Google Now is available to any Android device running 4.1, I have it on my DNA and my GF has it on her SGS3 on T-Mobile. That Grokr name is a bit on the ugly side to even look at. After watching the video I am wondering, how in the hell does Grokr know anything about you to even give you information relevant to what your interests are? I mean LinkedIn, facebook don't actually have that information listed, I just want to know how it will magically figure all this out? It does look pretty good, but I was a little worried with that whole it will give you trending news and such which to me sounds like annoying pop ups in my web browser.
Hope it's actually a great app that succeeds on all platforms, nothing better that exposure.

Startup Launches Cutting Edge Photo App, Wrap Digital Images Like Cloth!

Kolkata, India – Computer Vision startup, Techbla has released a new photo editing app named Wrapcam 1.01.

In the words of the CEO, “The 21 filters given in the app are unique and many of the effects have been introduced for the first time in the market. The best part is the ability to create customized filter effects by combining one filter on top of an another which literally allows thousands of new customized combinations to be made.”

As per company sources, this very philosophy has been used for development of all the features and particular attention has been given to make the app very easy to use. “You can just use one finger to create your photo art,” commented Madhurima lead designer for the app.

The developers have provided a rich set of text, visual and video instructions which allows one to learn to use the app with ease. The app is available on the iPhone/iPod and is specially been optimized for iPhone 5/iPod 5.

The Developers have provided a rich set of tools such as filters, color, lights and frame effects to enhance the quality of the app. As per Pranav Agarwal (CEO & Founder) who has stated that they have created an app where everything has been redeveloped from grounds up.

In the words of the CEO, “The 21 filters given in the app are unique and many of the effects have been introduced for the first time in the market. The best part is the ability to create customized filter effects by combining one filter on top of an another which literally allows thousands of new customized combinations to be made.”

As per company sources, this very philosophy has been used for development of all the features and particular attention has been given to make the app very easy to use. “You can just use one finger to create your photo art,” commented Madhurima lead designer for the app.

The developers have provided a rich set of text, visual and video instructions which allows one to learn to use the app with ease. The app is available on the iPhone/iPod and is specially been optimized for iPhone 5/iPod 5.

AT&T launches new global flat rate plans, Data Global subscribers get 1GB free at Wi-Fi hotspots abroad

New AT&T Global Packages Make it More Affordable for Travelers to Call, Text, Tweet and Post Abroad

On Nov. 16, AT&T Will Launch New Travel Minutes Calling Packages, A New Global Messaging 600 Package and New Wi-Fi Capabilities for Select Data Global Add-On Packages
Dallas, Texas, November 15, 2012

For anyone planning an international getaway, AT&T* today announced the launch of new discount roaming packages for calling and messaging, as well as new Wi-Fi capabilities on select AT&T Data Global Add-On packages. AT&T's latest international offerings, which go into effect Nov. 16, are designed to give customers more choice, more value and more reasons to keep in touch when traveling abroad.

Calling: New AT&T Travel Minutes

AT&T will soon launch a trio of Travel Minutes packages that offer significant cost savings when making or receiving calls while traveling abroad. Ideal for anyone planning a short stay abroad, the new packages offer tremendous value over pay-per-use rates and help keep wireless bills predictable by giving customers a bucket of minutes for one flat price when roaming in more than 220 countries.

Joining the AT&T Canada and Mexico Travel Minutes package, which was introduced earlier this year but will now be available at a better value, are AT&T Europe Travel Minutes and AT&T Rest of World Travel Minutes. Customers planning a trip abroad, who would like the convenience of being able to place and receive calls at a discounted rate on the same number as they use at home, will simply select the appropriate Travel Minutes package based on the country or countries they will be visiting, and then select the amount of calling minutes that will best meet their needs.1

Canada and Mexico Travel Minutes, which covers voice calls made and received while traveling in Canada and Mexico, includes:

80 minutes of talk time for $30/month ($0.38 per minute effective rate)
200 minutes of talk time for $60/month ($0.30 per minute effective rate)
500 minutes of talk time for $120/month ($0.24 per minute effective rate)
Overage rate is $.50/min.

Europe Travel Minutes, which covers voice calls made and received while traveling in more than 40 European countries, includes:

30 minutes of talk time for $30/month ($1.00 per minute effective rate)
80 minutes of talk time for $60/month ($0.75 per minute effective rate)
200 minutes of talk time for $120/month ($0.60 per minute effective rate)
Overage rate is $1.00/min.

Rest of World Travel Minutes, which covers voice calls made and received in most of the countries not covered by the other two packages, includes:

15 minutes of talk time for $30/month ($2.00 per minute effective rate)
40 minutes of talk time for $60/month ($1.50 per minute effective rate)
100 minutes of talk time for $120/month ($1.20 per minute effective rate)
Overage rate is $2.00/min.

Messaging: New Global Messaging 600 Package

Whether it's the standard "I wish u were here" text message or a more personalized and animated video message in front of some spectacular international landmark, being able to send a message from around the world to loved ones back home is definitely one of the perks of mobile technology. For those international travelers who want to share their adventures while on the go, AT&T is excited to introduce the new Global Messaging 600 package, which lets customers send 600 text, picture and video messages abroad for $60/month from more than 140 countries.2

The new Global Messaging 600 package, which replaces Global Messaging 500, offers significant savings when compared to international roaming pay-per-use messaging rates, which cost travelers $.50 per message sent for text messages and $1.30 per message sent for picture and video messages. In contrast, with the Global Messaging 600 package, customers just pay $.10 a message-regardless if it's a text, picture or video message.

In addition to the Global Messaging 600 package, AT&T also offers Global Messaging 200 for $30/month and Global Messaging 50 for $10/month.

Data: New Wi-Fi Enhancement to Select Data Global Add-On Packages

In June, AT&T introduced its new lineup of Data Global Add-On packages that enable consumer and business customers to enjoy significant cost savings when accessing data in more than 140 countries.3 Beginning Nov. 16, customers who subscribe to either the 300MB or 800MB Data Global Add-On package will now be able to use the AT&T Wi-Fi International app to access up to 1GB of Wi-Fi each month, at no additional charge, at select AT&T International Wi-Fi hotspots.

International travelers can now enjoy cellular data on the go and also take advantage of Wi-Fi connections where they are available. The AT&T Wi-Fi international app is compatible with most smartphone operating systems.4 At launch, the Wi-Fi hotspots will be available in major cities within 14 countries, with expansion continuing throughout 2013.5

AT&T's wireless customers enjoy a robust selection of world phones and international discount data, messaging and calling packages. With voice service in more than 225 countries, data coverage in more than 210 countries and ultra-fast 3G network services in more than 175 countries, AT&T customers can stay connected to the people, places and information that matters most when they travel abroad.

Mozilla launches Firefox OS simulator as platform-neutral browser extension

Firefox OS, the HTML-based operating system formerly known as Boot to Gecko, will have a tough time competing with the existing players as even high-profile attempts like Windows Phone are struggling to gain traction. Still, the Mozilla team thinks it is on to something with an OS built around HTML, CSS and JavaScript, and the next generation web.

And now, Firefox OS launches an emulator for developer to test their apps and curious users to look around. It is available as a Firefox extension and it is pretty straightforward to install. The “experimental” simulator runs on Mac, Windows and Linux.

Once you install the extension, it will stay up to date with the latest Firefox OS developments, so you don’t have to update it to have the current version. It is still version 0.7 and waiting to graduate into version 1.

It’s main goal, of course, is to get developers interested in writing for the platform: “the Firefox OS Simulator is the easiest way to try out Firefox OS apps today and to verify how they’ll look before submitting them to the Marketplace,” a member of the Mozilla team said.

The platform looks fairly conservative and we think that’s more of a good thing. You can check it out in our gallery below or hit the source to install the simulator on your Firefox.

Besides Google Nexus 4, T-Mobile launches HTC 8X, Nokia Lumia 810 and Samsung GALAXY Tab 2 10.1

It's a crazy, wild day at T-Mobile where a number of new devices are being launched. The Google Nexus 4, which sold out on the Google Play Store on Tuesday, is available at 'select' T-Mobile stores as we told you earlier. The 16GB model is available for the Classic plan for $199.99 with a signed two-year contract and a $50 mail-in rebate brings the price down even more. Unsubsidized, the phone is $499.99 or $150 more than the price on the Google Play Store. The device is powered by Android 4.2 and runs over the carrier's HSPA+42Mbps pipeline. If Windows Phone 8 is more your thing, you can pick up the HTC 8X for $149.99 after a $50 mail-in-rebate and 20 equal monthly payments of $20 and a two-year contract on the Value plan. With the Classic plan, the phone is $199.99 after a $50 mail-in-rebate and a signed two-year contract. With a 4.3 inch Super LCD 2 display protected by Gorilla Glass 2 and sporting resolution of 720 x 1280, the 342ppi pixel density is tremendous. HSPA+42Mbps connectivity offers fast data speeds.

Another Windows Phone 8 model launching from T-Mobile on Wednesday is the Nokia Lumia 810, an exclusive to the carrier. On the Value plan, the phone is $99.99 after a $50 mail-in rebate and 20 monthly payments of $20 with a signed two-year contract. Those on the Classic plan can pick up the device for $149.99 after a $50 mail-in rebate and a signed two-year pact. The Nokia Lumia 810 is equipped with  4.3 inch OLED WVGA Clear Black display, an 8MP camera on back and a 1.2MP Skype HD certified front-facing camera. The unit offers HSPA+42Mbps connectivity.

If it's a tablet you need, T-Mobile has you covered there too, with the launch of the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1. The Android 4.0 powered tablet offers a 1280 x 800 resolution and a dual-core 1.5GHz processor. However, for the same price, you can pick up the Google Nexus 10 off-contract at the Google Play Store with a mind-blowing 2560 x 1600 resolution and a 300ppi pixel density.

Whether it's the latest stock Android Nexus phone, Windows Phone 8 models, or an Android tablet, T-Mobile has you covered today. Just expect some decent sized crowds at the stores.
