Readdle today is pleased to announce the release and immediate availability of Scanner Pro 3.0, a major update to their popular iPhone application that transforms the device into a portable scanner. Using Scanner Pro 3.0, iPhone owners scan multi-page documents lightning fast thanks to a new, specially designed interface. The new black and white mode, with reduced file sizes, enables users to e-mail documents with twice as many pages as before.
Scanning multi-page documents with Scanner Pro 3.0 is even easier than before. Just take a photo of the document, adjust the crop area for each page, and tap the process button. All processing is done in a batch without any effort. To overcome file size limits for email attachments, Scanner Pro 3.0 can save documents in black and white mode. This makes scans up to twice as small when compared to grayscale mode, all with preserving readability and document resolution.
“Scanning documents with the iPhone is something many people have never thought about. They’d love to have pocket scanner but they don’t realize they already have one,” notes Igor Zhadanov, Readdle CEO. “Scanner Pro 3.0 expands what the iPhone is capable of by allowing you to take a single or multiple shots and get great results.”

Vicinno Soft, LLC today is pleased to announce the release and immediate availability of V12c Financial Calculator 1.0 for the iPhone and iPod touch, a powerful emulator for the well known HP 12c Financial Calculator. Identical in every aspect, the app provides a perfect emulation of the layout, functions, algorithms, capabilities, and key sequences of the original. Ideal for courses in Accounting, Economics, Finance, Marketing, Mathematics, Sciences, Real Estate, and Statistics, it is an ideal financial calculator for the iPhone and iPod touch.
Since first released in 1981, the HP 12C has stood alone as the trusted standard in handheld financial computing and even today remains the best selling calculator of all time. It is still available for around seventy dollars. The HP 12C has been the unquestioned benchmark for all financial calculators, at least until now. It is also one of only two calculators permitted on the Chartered Financial Analyst exam and the Society of Actuaries exam. To make it accessible to everyone in pocket without extra weight, Vicinno fully implements not only original HP 12c functions but also more suitable features for iPhone and iPod touch.
V12c Financial Calculator is a professional application, offering users more user friendly features, in addition to full implementations of original HP 12c, like user manual accessible from within the app for reference on the go, optional click sound with each tap providing additional feedback, and so on. These features give customers more choices and better user experience, and are unavailable in the HP 12c or other apps.
Marvel Apps today is pleased to introduce iSwingSpeed 1.0 for iOS, their new sports app that calculates the speed of the user’s golf swing in either miles per hour or kilometers per hour. To operate, the user places their iPhone flat on the ground, approximately 27 inches behind the ball in the swing path of the club (the iPhone is 4.5 inches long, so six phone lengths works perfectly). Employing the iPhone’s built-in mic, the app measures the speed of the swing to an accuracy of plus or minus 4 MPH at speeds up to 140 MPH. The user need not pre-set the app; speed is displayed automatically following every swing.
The scientific literature on the physics of golf balls, golf swings, and golf clubs is surprisingly rich, and dozens of physical factors and variables may come in to play. Interestingly, the golf ball once hit, travels faster than the maximum speed of the club due to elasticity effects. “We at Marvel Apps, exhaustively tested the algorithm for 6 months with various clubs, balls, placements of the iPhone, and radar guns. An accuracy of +/-4MPH was achieved for our swings at the GolfSmith driving dome, comparing iSwingSpeed readings to GolfSmith readings. Above 140MPH we observed +/-6MPH. We are working feverishly to improve the accuracy.”
CAZE today is pleased to announce their new ThinEdge clear trim case for iPhone 4. Constructed of lightweight, hard-shell plastic, ThinEdge trim case offers sleek and stylish protection for the iPhone 4 and comes with an wallet size stand for easy viewing of your wide screen. Designed as the ultimate balance between case-minimalism and protection, the ThineEdge wraps the edges and corners to cushion and protect and keeps the front and back of the iPhone 4 from coming into direct contact with flat surfaces when laid down. To ensure the iPhone 4 is fully protected from everyday bumps & scratches, a front & back film set is provided.
ThineEdge adds just a millimeter in thickness to the sides of the iPhone 4. It fits tightly around the edges of the iPhone 4 and protects its sides by protruding slightly above the front screen & back glass and can address the antenna concern. The result leaves the back and front fully exposed visually, but shielded against scratches. It is made of GRILAMID(R) TR-90 which is a plastic polymer commonly used in the creation of sport and other impact-resistant eyewear frames. TR-90-made products are lightweight, remarkably tough, highly flexible, shatterproof and highly resistant to UV damage. An edge connector is provided for fastening the frame case and personalizing the iPhone 4.
ThineEdge is easy to install. Its anti-slip property gives the iPhone 4 more grip on surfaces. Easy access to all phone functions without having to remove the case. It has complete access to all the main ports and buttons of the device. Charging has also never been easy since you do not have to remove the case.
