There is also the app mRelease http://itunes.apple.com/de/app/mrelease/id35900... in the AppStore..
I am not shure if any of these signed releases are valid at least in Germany.

Sorry, on a budget here. I have a stack of model release forms in my ride, and always carry a couple of them in my computer bag.

Thanks for the quick response.

I'm glad to hear stuff is skippable; I can see the request for a full address easily intimidating strangers on the streets with concerns over identity theft.

Andrew,

In Easy Release, some fields are required, but others are not. When you fill in a new release, you can skip the Address screen (just click Next in the New Release Wizard). While you cannot customize the app to hide the screen altogether, we hope that tapping through a screen like that won't be too much of a hassle, even if you don't want to fill it in.

For model releases, the only required model fields are Name and Date of Birth (and, if the model is under 18, the Parent's Name). Optional fields are ID Photo, Address, Gender, Ethnicity and Contact Info. While some of your customers may require those fields to be filled in, the application does not make that assumption for you.

Hope you get a chance to try out Easy Release.

It's a neat idea, but the forms don't seem to be that customizable. For example, can I have someone skip the entire 'address' section or at least part of it when dealing with a stranger on the street? Screenshots seem to indicate no.

It's hard to tell though without actually buying the app; too bad it's overpriced.
