Apple announced the winners of App Store Best of 2020 today with Wakeout declared as the iPhone app of the year and Zoom as the iPad app. This year’s list of winners is dominated by apps that became crucial for people around the world in a time, where Covid-19 pandemic disrupted the daily routines of the masses on personal and professional fronts. Since maintaining physical distance from each other was imperative, the apps were also chosen for the positive impact they had in improving the lives of users.
So it is not surprising to see Zoom winning as the best iPad app given it became such an important tool for many users to collaborate, not just at work, but also as tool to connect with family members and friends. It was also interesting to see Wakeout, app by an independent App developer, emerge as the winner in the iPhone category. The app is developed by Andres Canella, and is designed to help users do small workouts “just about anywhere, anytime.”
“This year, more than ever before, some of our most creative and connected moments happened in apps. This was thanks to the amazing work of developers who introduced fresh, helpful app experiences throughout the year,” said Phil Schiller, Apple Fellow.
