iMonitor™ Releases List of Top 10 Best Newspaper Apps

NEW YORK, Oct. 18, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- McPheters & Company announced today the iMonitor™ list of Top 10 Best Newspaper Apps.  The company's iMonitor service is currently providing detailed evaluation and global tracking of approximately 3500 media-related apps.  It tracks national newspapers, as well as those in major markets for English-speaking and Western European countries.

The list is based on the iMonitor rating system which scores each app based on its design, functionality, and use of rich media.  Each variable is evaluated on a five point scale and rolled up into a single App Rating with a maximum potential value of 15.  So far the highest rating achieved has been 14.5 – a rating shared by all of the publications on this list, which is arranged in alphabetical order.

According to McPheters & Company CEO, Rebecca McPheters, "Compared with other apps, newspapers have the added challenge of producing a new product every day.  These apps have all attained our highest rating and are consistently outstanding."
