Productivity Helper Versions 6.0 and 6.1 for Kindle Fire are now available

Posted on February 21, 2012 by tarzanphan60

Alarm Clock, ToDo List, Calendar – Productivity Helper now has two updates available in the Amazon Android App Store.

What is new in these versions?

Version 6.0 introduced several Alarm Clock Changes:

  • Digital Clock (plus night clock version)
  • Repeating Alarms
  • Snooze Feature with custom snooze settings

I will be updating the ongoing blog posts with detailed information, but here are some sneak peaks:

Digital Clock View

 

Snooze abilities

Version 6.1 was released as an emergency fix for an issue that was found in Version 6.0 when the user exited the app from either the Live Clock or the Stopwatch page (and had these pages set as the designated page to start the app on or had it set to the page last in use when the app was exited).

We are grateful for our users that brought this issue to our attention and their patience while it was resolved. If you received the error message, please update to version 6.1 and the app will work as desired and no data will be lost.

If there are any questions on these updates, please leave a comment here or contact us at booksummit@ymail.com.

Kindle Active Fiction Items – most now listed at $1.99

Posted on February 21, 2012 by tarzanphan60

Last month I wrote about my disappointment with Kindle marketing apps as active fiction that were really more on the line of novels. I noticed today that they have dropped their prices on all but the newest novel posing as an app (prices go back up after February).  Now that they have knocked anywhere from $2-4 off the price of each app, you might want to check them out.  They are all listed as “new releases” but I cannot see what the difference is between version 1.0 and version 1.1 – unless they have added more touchpoints for the user to provide input at. I did read Dead Letter Office and it was worth $2.

The new releases are as follows:

Getting Dumped by Tawna Fenske ($1.99)

Arcania – Trial by Fire by Liz Maverick ($1.99)

Dead Letter Office – Parish Mail 1 by Kira Snyder ($1.99)

Witch’s Brew – Spellspinners 1 by Heidi R. Kling ($1.99)

Each of these items is available for Kindle Touch, Kindle, Kindle Keyboard, Kindle 2nd Generation and Kindle DX.

Kindle Calendar update available!

Posted on February 21, 2012 by tarzanphan60

Calendar version 1.1 for all Kindle supporting active content is now available for download. Please note – we refer to it as version 1.1 within the app, but in the Kindle store it is listed as version 1.2.

First came Calendar 1.1 for Kindle at the end of 2011. Then came Calendar 1.1 for Kindle Touch earlier this month. Quickly following on its heels was Calendar 1.1 for Kindle 2nd Generation, Kindle Keyboard and Kindle DX users.

What is included in Calendar 1.1 that was not in previous versions.  Well – a picture is worth a thousand words.

Kindle Calendar Active Content - new in version 1.1

I will be updating all the Calendar online help files and downloadable help files this week and should have the posts updated before the weekend. 

As always, if there are any questions on the update, please leave a comment on this post or contact us directly at booksummit@ymail.com.

Kindle Games Catch-up

Posted on February 20, 2012 by tarzanphan60

Did you miss me?  I missed blogging. Time to move into catch-up mode.

Excuse number 1 – we felt that getting Notepad and Calendar out for Kindle Touch had to be a priority. So many users were asking for some functionality on their Kindle Touch devices and there was a lot of testing to do to make sure these apps were ready.  Hope you are enjoying them!

Excuse number 2 – vacation, followed by business trip, followed by a really vicious sinus infection.  Didn’t want to pass a “virus” on to any of the followers.

Things are moving along in the Kindle store.  Several apps have been re-released with versions for the Kindle, but I don’t intend to keep everyone up to date on those releases.

New items for Kindle Touch owners

Did I mention Notepad and Calendar?  In addition there are two new Kindle games for Kindle Touch owners:

Wizard’s Choice Volume 1 is a text based adventure for Kindle.  It is only $0.99 and an excellent game to try.  I reviewed it last year if you want to learn more about this game.

Sudoku Unbound #3 is a new release for all app available Kindle e-readers.  I reviewed Sudoku Unbound last year also and think it is a great series of Sudoku games.  This game is available for $2.99.  I like how the developers claim it uses “TouchWrite Technology” as a way to indicate it works on Kindle Touch.  No one told us we were supposed to come up with fancy terminology to indicate our apps could do what every android apps does!

New items for other Kindle owners

Tarot is a Tarot Cards app for Kindle by the same group that brought us Runes. The app is available for $0.99.  I can’t claim to know anything more about Tarot cards than I did about Runes, so I will leave this for the interested users to look into themselves.

Fluid is another active fiction series (book masquerading as an app). Available for $6.99.  I love parts of the description, such as “You have only yourself to blame as the world burns or rejoices.” (Did my mother write this?) Also, “they have been stuggling to find each other since the dawn of time.” (Cue eerie music).

Awale is a strategy game from the Mancala family. Only $0.99 and it looks pretty interesting.  I’m going to be trying this out during this week and will let you know what I think of it.
