How can tear down the growing barriers to education using iphone?

Recently, I have had a growing feeling that the avialability, meaningfulness, and ease of use of educational app on the iphone has gotten worse not better.  In fact it feels like there are a growing number of specific barriers to education using the iphone.  I would like to discuss  one specific "barrier" to education--avialability in your country's app store by using a specific example--Einstien Pedometer App.
Back in 2011, the Einstien pedometer App by Kami was all the rage. Even popular science a noneducation maganize noted this innovation-- http://www.popsci.com/technology/article/2011-04/new-ipod-app-calculates-how-spe cial-relativity-affects-your-daily-activities .  However, now you cannot get this app unless your are in china as you can see from the orginal link:
http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/einsteins-pedometer/id427443192?mt=8
So I ask you all for help in tear down this barrier and tearing down this wall...
How can we tear down this barrier of country availability?
Is there a way to contact the orginal company like Kami?
Is there  a way to change your country and install it?  Is this safe for students to do?
Should I contact tech support?
This app like other by Vogt and Kuhn are important ones to me that I have found unavialable in the United States.  Measuring Relativity not just calculating it is important for the iphone future, because phones are currently one of the few mainstream devices to have a guarunteed across the board GPS chip!  Thus, unlike the innovations of Vogt and Kuhn, the Einstien Pedometer is a physics application that is only available using ones smartphone.
This is my tech support submission, which better explains why I felt this was a barrier:
  What happened to the Einstien Pedometer App?
  Back in 2011 there was a famous Einstien's Pedometer App by Kami.  Recently as of February 2014, I found out that this app was unavailable on the App Store due to "unavailable in the United States".  The android already has a similar app called "Proper Time" by N. Thinsell.  I wanted to include this app as part of my physics smart phone laboratory series.  Specifically, I have worked painstakingly to develop a lab so that students could measure special relativity time dilation using their smart phones GPS chip.  (The lab is similar to the work of P Vogt and J Kuhn which is different from many of gimmick apps, which are only ebooks of text, not actual physics measuring devices.)  The current unavailability of this app is simply another barrier to using iphones for education.  This is why I am very disappointed right now.  Incorporating Android systems into physics high school curriculum is easy; however, I have tried many times to try to incorporate apple products into the physics curriculum to no avail.  It feels like with each successful year there are more and more barriers to using iphones for application-level understanding in physics education.

Dah Veed,
How?  No really how do I contact the app developer from a foreign country?
Going back to my example, so far I was able to figure out alot of things about the app developer of the Einstien Pedometer app--except there contact information.  Besides prehaps seeking apples supports help in contacting the developer, do you have any other suggestions?
Information that I know so far:
App: Einstein's pedometer
Developer's Name: Mitsuru kamiyama
Language: Japanese
AppStore Page: https://itunes.apple.com/us/artist/kami/id362020177?mt=8
Developers really old website: http://playoffline.ddo.jp/app/
P.S. While it didn't exactly solve the problem, your reply was very helpful, so I thank you for your reply.

    I want to update iCloud account with new apple id but don't know password for old apple id.  Plus can no longer receive email at old apple id.  How can I delete the current iCloud account on my iPhone if the previously stated conditions exist?

    If the old ID is yours, and if it is an earlier version of your current ID, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • How can i get the itunes off of my old iphone if the files on my computer have been erased?

    How can i get the itunes off of my old iphone if the files on my computer have been erased?

    1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.
    above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.

  • Itunes on my iPhone 5 only displays the artist list with the UP NEXT feature.  How can I change the UP NEXT feature on my iPhone 5 to display the next songs that are to be played on my play list?

    Itunes on my iPhone 5 only displays the artist list with the UP NEXT feature.  How can I change the UP NEXT feature on my iPhone 5 to display the next songs that are to be played on my play list?

    Hi Sarah,
    It sounds like the songs have either not yet synced over to the iPhone, or something went wrong when attempting to sync to the iPhone. My recommendation is to uncheck the "Sync Music" checkbox.
    Once you have done that, recheck the "Sync Music" checkbox, and apply the changes once more. This will instruct iTunes to completely remove all music from your iPhone, and then copy the files once more. If you have a large amount of music, this initial sync may take a while.
    If the above does not resolve your issue, see the following articles:

    The term "factory unlocked" has no meaning. Your phone was not legitimately unlocked. Contact the carrier it is locked to and find out if you can get it unlocked.

    Hi Muthukumar,
    1. You can using the user exit or BADI to control this.
    CONFPP01            PP order conf.: Determine customer specific default values           
    CONFPP02            PP order conf.: Customer specific input checks 1                     
    CONFPP03            PP order conf.: Cust. specific check after op. selection             
    CONFPP04            PP order conf.: Customer specific input checks 2                     
    CONFPP05            PP order conf.: Customer specific enhancements when saving           
    CONFPP06            PP Order Confirmations: Actual Data Transfer                         
    CONFPP07            Single Screen Entry: Inclusion of User-Defined Subscreens            
    BADI
    WORKORDER_CONFIRM
    the above are the user exits that are available fro the CO11N tcode.
    2. we have to take a help of the abaper to write coding fort his.
    3. The user exit should be called for the
    Work Center : YYYYY
    then check the relevant Work Center Once is used in open Maintainence Order and if it has a entry if then give a error message else allow the CO11N to perform.
