Karelia Software Announces Yosemite Compatibility for All Mac Apps

Updates Released For Sandvox and The Hit List for Mac, with a new Stars by Karelia, and Compatibility Confirmed for Tangerine!


Pasadena, Calif. - Oct. 17, 2014 - Karelia Software today announced the release and immediate availability of updates to Sandvox and The Hit List for Mac, and a new Stars app, all to address compatibility with OS X Yosemite. Karelia Software today also confirmed all of the company's commercially available apps for OS X, including Tangerine!, are now compatible with OS X Yosemite.

Sandvox 2.9.1 is available immediately as an update to its award-winning website building software for OS X. The update addresses maintenance issues for compatibility with the OS X Yosemite.

The Hit List for Mac 1.1.6 is an update which adds UI refinements, and addresses maintenance issues for compatibility with the OS X Yosemite. Designed for today’s interrupt-driven and busy life, The Hit List handles personal task management with a perfect balance of app power and ease of use.

Introduced today, a new Stars 5.0 is built from the ground up as a new version of the former 'I Love Stars' app, and requires OS X Yosemite. Reimagined and renamed Stars, the new version introduces built-in 1/2-star ratings and sports a new, more modern UI to function and look better in OS X Yosemite. Stars gives users a fun and distraction-free way to quickly rate songs, and includes a handy, minimalist iTunes controller that shows the album cover art for the song, or artwork for the movie, currently being played.

Tangerine! today was confirmed as compatible with OS X Yosemite. Tangerine! makes it easy to create the perfect playlist from your iTunes library. Tangerine! analyzes the Beats Per Minute (BPM) and the beat intensity of your music, and applies the range you set to the pattern you choose.

"Everyone at Karelia is thrilled to have every single one of our apps updated and ready for Yosemite," said Dan Wood, president of Karelia Software. "It's been a long and busy summer, but we think our customers will really like the results."
