Are you a voracious romance fiction novel reader? Well now you can enjoy them anywhere, anytime via an App (iTunes Application)! MyRomanceStory.com announces the release of its library of romance graphic novels on Apple’s iTunes App Store.
“The iPhone opens up an exciting platform for readers to experience our romance novels,” says Pat White, CEO Arrow Publications, LLC, the publisher of MyRomanceStory.com. “The colors are vibrant and the text is easy to read.”
However, getting these stories up was frustrating.
At times, MyRomanceStory editors suffered the same mixed signals as their fictional heroines since they were never sure what Apple wanted. Form emails would indicate that there was a problem with the submission, but wouldn’t specify the text, image, or even the panel. As White explains, “We present stories of couples falling in love. That involves romantic and necessary intimate scenes. We spent a lot of time editing and re-editing. If only we could have spoken to someone at Apple to understand exactly what changes they wanted.”
“We were sensitive to Apple’s range of readers so we submitted edited versions targeting what we thought was a general audience,” Managing Editor, Tom King, adds. “But although we edited out some of the love scenes and text, we still got rejections.”
Once Apple launched its ratings system and got over the initial bottleneck of submissions, Arrow noticed a faster turnaround for its Apps approval.
Romance fans can go to the iTunes App Store and search by keywords “myromancestory” or “romance story” to find the Arrow titles.

As millions of college students head off to school, they’re forced to trade carefree summer routines for rigorous winter class schedules, and this trade-off eventually leads to exhaustion. A recent study published in the Journal of Adolescent Health found that only 30% of college students get enough sleep.
Part of this trend is due to the stress of school life, triggering procrastination and late night cramming sessions. While students try to pack their class schedules and party time into one extreme day, their sleep patterns become disturbed. This cycle depletes physical energy and mental alertness, but have no fear — there’s an app for that.
Launched this week by GSC Products, BluWave uses therapeutic blue light to invigorate the mind and body by fooling the biological clock to help over-tired college students beat the “Study Fatigue Blues”. The BluWave iPhone app uses light emitting diode (LED) technology to deliver an adjustable panel of blue light through the screens of iPhones and iPods. BluWave also features an audio mode with relaxing natural sounds including ocean, rain, nature, waterfalls and wind.
BluWave is presently available for the iPhone and iPod Touch for $1.99 at the iTunes App Store. Promotional downloads are available for qualified media and reviewers upon request.

iPhone users can now protect sensitive core components of their iPhone devices, including personal and business contact information. Due to the lack of inherent encryption capabilities on most iPhones and the exposed weaknesses of iPhone 3GS encryption, personal contact information can easily be accessed from a lost, stolen or compromised device.
SMobile Systems‘ ContactCrypt 1.6 is now available on the iTunes App Store. The software application is built to encrypt sensitive personal and business data including contact names, home addresses, account numbers, phone numbers, e-mail addresses and other critical data stored in the Contacts section of the iPhone. While other iPhone App Store encryption applications simply provide a vault mechanism to store user passwords, ContactCrypt is the first, third-party security application on the App Store to specifically protect and encrypt core components of the iPhone operating system itself.
With the recent release of iPhone encryption for 3GS devices proven to be easily bypassed by numerous security experts, the release of ContactCrypt has become all the more critical.
