As it does every year, Apple on Tuesday released a list of the year's 'best' digital content up for offer on its various digital storefronts, from the iOS App Store to Apple Books.
Apple announced the 'Best of 2018' awards in a press release posted to its website. Like recent years, the list is heavy on apps and games, but also includes highlights from Apple Music, the iTunes Movie Store, Podcasts and Apple Books.
Starting with its bread-and-butter App Store offerings, Apple crowned Procreate Pocket as 2018's iPhone App of the Year, with Froggipedia and Pixelmator Pro taking top honors for iPad and Mac, respectively. Workout app Sweat took the No. 1 spot on Apple TV.

Finally, Apple noted top offerings from the recently revamped — and renamed — Apple Books, including Book of the Year 'American Marriage.'
