FREE Apps This Friday!

What better way to follow up a Back to School Sale than with...another Back to School Sale.

I may have to talk to our Marketing Department about this one.

I mean, let's at least call it something else.

Like...

"Return to Learn"

Run with it.

See you this App Friday at Moms With Apps.

Back to School App Sale This Friday!

We know it can be tough, dragging the kids back to school after a fun-filled summer.

My suggestion to minimize kicking and screaming?

Trick them.

That's right, give them some educational apps that are actually fun to play.

They'll be too busy earning cool rewards and high-fiving over high scores to realize they're skilling and drilling.

And stuff.

See you this App Friday, with our friends at Moms With Apps.

Multi-User Accounts Added to Marble Math Apps!

You say you've got a small army of kids at home or in the classroom who really want to play Marble Math or Marble Math Junior - and you've only got one iPad.

Sure the kids are willing to take turns but...

Little Billy really wants to try adding coins in Level 2 and...

Maria is way beyond that, she wants to focus on Level 3 multiplication.

And Daniel finds the obstacles distracting, so he'd rather turn them off.

And naturally, they each want to earn their own marbles.

And they want to see only their scores.

And wouldn't it be cool if they could also have their very own character?

Sounds to me like like you need more than one user account.
  
Well, you're in luck.

We just submitted an update to Apple that lets you create as many player profiles as you like.

And it comes with a pretty sweet avatar creator that your kids will love.

Each profile can be customized for specific problem types by level and will save the game state and scores for each player.

The updates should be live in the App Store in about a week, just in time for the start of our Back to School promos.

Stay tuned!
