Google confirms the biggest Android apps of the year, and Netflix will be disappointed
Google has revealed the most popular Android apps in the Play Store, based on feedback from its millions of users worldwide. Voting took place on November 23, with the Californian company now confirming which developers won the sought-after award. The Play Store editors have also highlighted a number of their favourite applications too.
According to the Play Store editors, the best app available to download on your Android smartphone or tablet right now is “Loóna: Bedtime Calm & Relax”. According to the teams at Google, the software is a “rare case where utility meets ingenuity and delight” that is “beautifully designed and thoughtfully executed”.
It adds: “Loóna captivated us like no other app this year, with its innovative, beautiful take on bedtime stories. Drift into relaxation through immersive ‘sleepscapes’ — 3D scenes you’ll explore with narration and simple interactions, tapping to bring colour and light to everything from a magical Brooklyn bookshop to a carousel in Paris. Rather close your eyes? Turn on a soothing soundscape, like ‘Lo-fi Beats’ or ‘Art of Nature’.”
Meanwhile, the Play Store users who voted in the poll decided that Disney+ was the worthy recipient of the Best App Of 2020 gong. That makes sense. After all, for millions of people, the last twelve months have been characterised by time spent indoors working from home, studying from home and socialising indoors to stop the spread of the coronavirus.
