Hi folks,
I've been working on "This Feeling", a new App for iPads. The last of a group 
of three apps (all written using LiveCode). It's based on years of research 
from a long-running project that is also written in LiveCode. It got accepted 
into Apple's App Store on Friday.

Here's how we describe the App on the App Store page:

"As its name suggests, This Feeling focuses on feelings. These are often 
difficult for children to identify, attribute, understand or describe - either 
with respect to themselves or other people. Using traditional communication 
approaches it is difficult for professionals to be confident the child they are 
working with has the capacity to discriminate and use language relating to 
feelings.

The term feeling is also confusing, because it can sometimes be used to refer 
to affect (happy, sad, worried, etc.) and sometimes to sensations (burning, 
stabbing, pain etc.). This Feeling enables children to optimally discriminate 
between all these by offering specific tools for each. One screen of This 
Feeling is dedicated to attributing, labeling, describing emotions, and the 
other focuses on body maps, on which physical sensations and pain can be 
located and described.
All interactions are touch based, and the child can either use 
well-standardised pain icons or annotate and draw on the body maps freehand. As 
with all the apps, any errors can be corrected, or adjustments easily made. 
Unlike paper and pencil techniques, a child is not constrained by the first 
marks he or she makes, and can adjust the on screen representation until 
completely satisfied that it represents exactly what they are feeling."
