Awesimals Turns iPhones and iPods into a Fun Interactive Character

MINNEAPOLIS–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The magic happens when the Awesimal character case designed for iPhones and iPod Touch devices is paired with a downloadable Awesimals interactive app. When the big cartoon eyes and feet of the case meet the crazy digital mouth, the fun really begins.

“We launched Awesimals on the iPhone 4/4S platform because a lot of parents hand down their iPhone 4/4S devices to their kids when they upgrade to the iPhone 5”

Awesimal cases are available in eight colors: pink, light purple, dark purple, blue, lime green, yellow, orange and cherry red. The Awesimals case has been designed to stand-up on a flat surface so a child can interact with it while doing homework, reading, coloring or drawing. The Awesimals case also can be laid on its side for hands free video watching, too.

The interactive app lets kids customize their screen saver, choosing from among ten different expressions and eight background colors, such as bright big smiles, monster teeth, barfing mouths, and big puckered lips. Then, using the “repeat” feature, kids can pick their Awesimals’ voice, which will repeat whatever a child says, whistles, laughs, or burps.

Currently, Awesimals are available for the iPhone 4/4S and iPod Touch 2nd, 3rd, and 4th generations. “We launched Awesimals on the iPhone 4/4S platform because a lot of parents hand down their iPhone 4/4S devices to their kids when they upgrade to the iPhone 5,” said Jason Smith, president of Awesimals. A father of four, Smith recognized a trend that led to the development of Awesimals: the growing number of younger children who are being exposed to, and regularly use, mobile technology as their parents upgrade to a new generation of iPhones and iPods.

For parents, the best thing about Awesimals is the case, which is made of a safe food-grade plastic material designed to reduce the impact on the iPhone or iPod Touch should it be accidentally dropped or falls off a surface. The Awesimals case is phthalate and BPA free.

The Awesimals interactive character case is available through www.awesimals.com and through selected retailers with a recommended manufacturer’s retail price of $24.99. The downloadable Awesimals app is available through iTunes for 99 cents.
