If you’re wondering about Awaken and the newly announced iPad – we’ll be on the platform with a revised UI to take full advantage of the larger screen. You will also not have to purchase a separate version of Awaken for the iPad. More information will be available closer to launch of the iPad since everything is NDA at the moment.

We’re also extending the 99¢ sale of Awaken – so get it now if you haven’t already at this extremely low price.

Update: Beta testing of Awaken 1.3 has concluded and the final version has been sent to Apple for review. Thanks to all of the beta testers!

It’s that time again – a new update for Awaken for iPhone is on the way. Version 1.3 contains over a dozen new enhancements. We would like to conclude testing ASAP so that we can release it for everyone. Anyone who beta tested the last version already has 1.3 – but we’d like to add even more testers.

If you’re interested and are able to test Awaken 1.3 right away please let us know.

As before, here are the steps:

To get started, all you need to do is send your device ID to support@embraceware.com with “Awaken Beta” in the subject line.

You can get your iPhone or iPod touch device ID by doing the following:

1. Connect your iPhone or iPod touch to your Mac or PC.
2. On the “Summary” tab in iTunes, click the “Serial Number” label.
   You’ll notice “Serial Number” changes to “Identifier”. (sans Zelda chime)
3. Click on “Edit” in the menu at the top and select “Copy”.
4. Now you can paste the device ID into an email.

We look forward to hearing from you!
