iStopMotion for iPad 1.1 Speeds Up Just in Time For Spring

Puchheim, Germany – March 6, 2011 – Boinx Software, a multi-award winning software developer for Mac® and iOS, today announced a brand new update to its popular iStopMotion for iPad, which now features, among other improvements, accelerated image processing, Dropbox integration and language localization, beginning with German. Offered at the special introductory price of 4.99 USD, iStopMotion for iPad 1.1 will return to its regular price of 9.99 USD on March 18th. "iStopMotion for iPad made quite a splash when it debuted in December, and we are really proud to have won the Macworld Best of Show and The Mac Observer Editors Choice Award at Macworld | iWorld 2012. But we couldn’t rest on our laurels - we got right back to work upon returning to Puchheim to make it even better," says Oliver Breidenbach, CEO, Boinx Software. "The capture speed is something we worked especially hard to enhance. Version 1.1 is a big improvement, most notably for time lapse recording. YouTube is a great way to share your animations, but we want to give people more options moving forward, beginning with Dropbox support in this release. And, although it is already available worldwide in English, we want to better serve local markets in the future, starting with German localization."

iStopMotion for iPad 1.1 Improved Feature Highlights Include:

60-Fold Image Processing Speed for a Smaller Time Lapse Interval

By using optimized GPU algorithms, the image capturing speed was drastically increased. With image processing 60 times faster, the minimum time lapse interval could be reduced from three seconds to one second on the iPad 2, and from five to two seconds when using iStopMotion for iPad’s companion app iStopMotion Remote Camera on an iPhone 4/4s or iPod touch 4th gen.

More Possibilities for Sharing Masterpieces

Users can now upload their iStopMotion for iPad movies straight to Dropbox for sharing with friends and family or immediate access to their work of art on other devices.

Crossing Borders with Language Localization

iStopMotion for iPad is hitting the local scene with language localization. Now available in German, the app will become available in many localized versions, providing easier access for all stop motion enthusiasts.

Enhanced Timeline Capabilities Make Stop Motion Animating Easy

Users can easily duplicate a frame in order to slow down the animation without the need to set the same scene twice, or delete all frames of a clip to start fresh.

New Opacity Control Optimized for Touch Interface

Moviemakers can simply tap and hold in the preview area and a slider control appears. With the slider, users decide how opaque or transparent the ghost image appears, making it easy to distinguish the live frame from recorded.

…And So Much More! Additional Improvements Include:

• Improved image quality of all sharing options by using a higher data rate

• Added display of estimated result file sizes while sharing clips

• Certain presets removed from email sharing if resulting movie size exceeds 10 MB

• Battery level of Remote Camera in use now displayed next to the iPad battery level in the status bar

• New help overlay for the camera settings as well as information about missing focus control

• If Remote Camera denies connection, the previously used camera is automatically selected again

• Exported movies now contain a basic set of metadata

• Major under-the-hood improvements for less bugs and crashes and an overall excellent user experience
