Today, McPheters & Company released the iMonitor State of the App 2012, including its list of Best Consumer Publication and News-Related Apps for iPad. The top five apps, created with Adobe Digital Publishing Suite, received perfect ratings: Martha Stewart Living, Newsweek, Phoenix Home & Garden, Reader’s Digest, and Revista Época Negocios.
As company founder Rebecca McPheters stated:
The first five apps on the list are the only ones of the thousands we have evaluated to achieve perfect iMonitor App Ratings. All of the apps on this list are outstanding – falling in the top fraction of 1% of all those tracked. They are easy to navigate and appropriately leverage the iPad’s capabilities to both fully engage their users and to expand upon the service typically provided by more traditional media forms.
The iMonitor Report rates consumer publication apps on design, functionality, media, and advertising. McPheters evaluates nearly 8,000 apps from publishers worldwide.
