iMonitor Releases List of Best Magazine Apps
NEW YORK, March 5, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- McPheters & Company has released the iMonitor(TM) List of Best Magazine Apps for iPad. The list is based on the iMonitor rating system which scores each app based on its design, functionality, and use of rich media content. The apps on this list, which come from a variety of countries, companies, and developers, score in the top percentile of the more than 5000 apps evaluated by iMonitor since its inception in 2010. The list is included in the lead article of the latest issue of FIPP's Magazine World, released today. Since the original list was submitted, there have been minor changes including the recent additions of National Geographic Magazine and Newsweek.
According to CEO Rebecca McPheters: "As the number of magazine apps has exploded, the bar for outstanding performance has constantly evolved. These apps are each doing an outstanding job of fully-leveraging the iPad's capabilities to enhance the user experience and expand upon the services traditionally offered to readers by printed publications."
