Apple announces App Store awards for best apps and games of 2022

Apple Tuesday announced the best apps and games of 2022. The announcement was made through a press release, instead of holding an event. Social media app BeReal was named the best iPhone of the year and Apex Legends Mobile was its best game.

This year’s awards consisted of “App of the year” for iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch and Apple TV as well as “Apple Arcade” game of the year. The top games, apps and “cultural impact” category were chosen by Apple’s App Store editors around the world. Apple said this year’s winners represent the “abundant possibilities across the App Store and Apple’s ecosystem of devices.”
