Pull My Finger

11
Dec

The one, the only, the original Pull My Finger.

Featured in the LA Times, Miami Herald, MacLife’s Top 10 Apple Influencers of 2008, Wired Magazine, The Guardian UK, CNET.com, and many others. (Thanks MacRumors, Ars Technica, and all the great Mac sites and fans who believed in our grand cause!)

Hundreds of thousands of people viewed the demo. Thousands cried out for its availability in the app store. Petitions were formed. Candles were lit. And now, in Apple’s Infinite Graciousness, they have allowed it to be available to you!

Throughout the annuls of time, man (and woman, but mostly man) has used this noisome pestilence to cause laughter, shock, and awe to those in their immediate surroundings. Advances in technology brought new ways to deliver the package. The hand under the armpit was good, but the invention of rubber brought the whoopee cushion, and new heights were reached. Then came the electronic version, and the whoopee cushion was no more. However, we asked ourselves over and over, why must I always carry a phone, iPod, AND electric fart machine? Can’t something be done to converge these oft carried items?

Today, friend, innovation has struck again. Now you can have your choice of sounds with you always, waiting and ready for when the perfect moment arrives. Tap a character’s finger, and it plays a unique sound. Some people say this is no big whoopee, but we think it’s a work o fart.

Some of the features include:

- 18 high quality sounds
- 18 unique, well-designed cartoon characters
- Random Mode for when you want a nice surprise
- Chorus Mode to play a continuous loop
- Vibrates for realism! Wow!

Note: V. 1.1 is coming to the store and it fixes the sound problem a couple folks have mentioned. Sorry for the inconvenience… thanks!

I downloaded this and it does not make any sound. When vibrate is on it will do that but now sound. I re-downloaded it and still no sound. Are there any particular settings that I need to look at?

December 15th, 2008 | joseph says:

No sound here either?? Just vibrations… which are not nearly as fun. I have deleted and re-installed the software as well as powered down and restarting my iphone:

Iphone version: 2.2 (5G77)
Model: MB631C

Help!

No sound here either. 3g 2nd gen iPhone all software upto date. Rebooted still nothing. Needs sorting asap or will be contacting apple for refund.

It says that the app isn’t compatible with my iPhone 3G… most recent software installed.

Hi all, we’ve got an update submitted to Apple that we think should fix the issue. We’re very sorry for the inconvenience!
December 17th, 2008 | David says:

What would make this app amazing would be to be able to control a friends iPhone with a remote part of this software(so we would both have to buy the app) so I could hide my phone under my bosses desk and make it go off when people are in there. As long as we are on the same wifi network it should be possible.

Hi all!

Great app!

One problem.

I have an ipod touch and whenever I touch the screen to make a fart sound, my iPod beeps and makes the fart sound.
I already tried turning off all the sounds in the settings menu but still the same thing.

If you could help I would appreciate it.

Thanks!
