Ahead of WWDC next week, where Apple will give us a first look at next-gen operating systems coming to all its various devices in the fall, the Cupertino giant has dropped its first app awards of the year.
That’s right, Apple has officially announced the winners of its annual Apple Design Awards, which it states “recognize innovation, ingenuity, and technical achievement in app and game design.”
As is tradition, Apple has split its Design Awards into six categories: 1) Delight and Fun, 2) Inclusivity, 3) Innovation, 4) Interaction, 5) Social Impact, and 6) Visuals and Graphics. And for each category, there are six finalists (three apps and three games) and two winners (one app and one game).
That’s 36 total apps and games that Apple has recognized in its Design Awards.
And while these recognized apps and games cover Apple’s entire device spectrum — from iPhone to Apple Vision Pro, Apple TV to Mac — we’ve highlighted the award-winning apps for iPhone below.
