Juicy Development Unveils Disneyland® App at MacWorld 2010
iPhone app developer, Juicy Development unveils Disneyland® app this week at San Francisco's MacWorld 2010. The app for iPhone and iPod Touch, FastTrac™ for Disneyland cuts users' waiting time for the park's rides. Unlike other Disney apps, FastTrac creates a dynamic customized Disneyland® ride schedule for the FastTrac user. With this schedule, users can walk onto popular rides, like Indy and Splash Mountain®, even during crowded times like spring break and Christmas. The FastTrac app was tested extensively in the middle of the park's peak capacity times during Spring Break and Christmas break. Testers of the app found wait time was reduced significantly, with only a maximum of 10 minutes wait for the most popular of rides.
FastTrac™ employs a complex predictive algorithm that predicts the best time to ride each ride. This program also draws on historical data collected, and tips and tricks from Disney veterans with 30 years of park attendance experience. FastTrac™ pulls from millions of possible itinerary combinations to provide the user with the most accurate schedule with the least amount of wait time. FastTrac™ takes into account holidays and special events, as well as major ride closures.
Users select the attractions they wish to ride, the attendance date, and arrival time. FastTrac™ creates a schedule for the user that will get them on the most rides with the least amount of wait time. While in the park, users can generate individual schedules for everyone in their group.
FastTrac™ also displays a map of the park. The map was created in the style of Mary Blair's artwork. Mary Blair was a noted Disney artist who created the whimsical artwork in It's a Small World, as well as designing conceptual art for Peter Pan and Alice in Wonderland.
Pricing and Availability:
The cost of the application for the iPhone is $9.99 in Apple's app store.
FastTrac for Disneyland is a product of Juicy Development, which also produces the popular iPhone applications Talk Radio and Police Scanner 2.

Juicy Development Releases First Interactive Police Scanner at MacWorld 2010
Orem, Utah - iPhone developer Juicy Development releases the first interactive police scanner for the iPhone and iPod Touch, this week at San Francisco's MacWorld 2010. The app, Police Scanner 2, allows users to alert others about emergency broadcast streams as they happen using text messages. The text messages appears on a small ticker in the app, allowing users to tune in to the stream being discussed.
"We found that there were a community of users that wanted to let each other know about exciting feeds being broadcast," said David Kyle, project manager. "And this feature allows everyone to share information as it happens."
Police Scanner 2 allows listeners to listen to police, fire, and EMS activities around the world. Unlike other emergency scanner applications, Police Scanner's adaptive technology allows updates to data streams to post "live" within a few hours of changes made. Because emergency data streams can change so quickly, Police Scanner is able to provide the updated information to its customers without waiting for slow version changes released in the iTunes store.
In addition to allowing users to share information, Police Scanner 2 allows users to record snippets of a stream and replay it later. The length of snippets recorded is limited only by the memory of the iPhone or other device.
With over 2300 national and international EMS streams, Police Scanner offers the largest selection of police, fire, and emergency services streams available for the iPhone in one application. Users can locate and listen to police dispatch frequencies worldwide. Police Scanner is the only iPhone emergency scanner application to provide streams from nine countries. New streams are added daily.
Police Scanner runs on wireless LANs, the 3G network, or on the Edge network, and is compatible both 2.x and 3.0 devices.
Pricing and Availability:
The cost of the application for the iPhone is $4.99 in Apple's app store.
Police Scanner 2 is a product of Juicy Development, which also produces the popular iPhone applications Talk Radio and FastTrac.

Talk Radio iPhone App Update Released at MacWorld 2010
Orem, Utah - Juicy Development LLC has released an update to their popular iPhone app, Talk Radio. The update allows users of the application to listen to Talk Radio while browsing on the web or answering email.

Talk Radio also allows users to save favorite stations, so that they can find their favorite show quickly and easily.
Using the Talk Radio application is easy - users simply select the host they wish to listen to. With a simple click, Talk Radio uses iPhone's built in GPS and a proprietary algorithm to present a list of radio stations and program air times in the users area. A manual search option allows users to find exactly what they want no matter where they are. By using Talk Radio, listeners will never need to miss their favorite host or worry about being bored on the road again.
Talk Radio tracks programs including Rush Limbaugh, Dr. Laura, Sean Hannity, Alan Colmes, Glenn Beck and other popular hosts on both AM and FM frequencies. Additional hosts are being added regularly and users are encouraged to submit requests online. Designed to take advantage of the iPhone location and network capabilities, Talk Radio learns from users who report coverage, corrections, or changes and transmits that information to everyone with the application automatically.
Currently Talk Radio works well within the United States, and international entries in the database are growing quickly.
Pricing and Availability:
The cost of the application for the iPhone is $2.99 in Apple's app store.
