With 2020 just around the corner, App Annie has taken a look at all of the biggest apps and games that were downloaded from 2010 onwards. Here they are.

Anyone who thought Apple opting for rounded squares as the basis of the iOS design aesthetic was just a case of Jony Ive or one of his designers liking rounded corners and deciding to run with it is actually quite wide off the mark. Here’s the real reason.

Apple is said to be working with Will.i.am and TV executives Ben Silverman and Howard T. Owens to create a new TV show that is based around apps and the App Store, according to new reports. The show, of which there are almost no details currently in circulation, will “spotlight the app economy.”

Here’s how to easily and automatically sort iOS apps on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch’s screen by usage, color, brightness, alphabetical order, and more.

Sometimes you wait for a very long time for a software update and then two come along in quick succession. That’s what it must feel like to Tweetbot users, because after Tapbots released a new version of its popular iOS Twitter client last week, today the company also saw the Mac client by the same name receive a similar update. Both apps had not seen any significant changes or updates in quite some time, making both new versions highly anticipated indeed.

Apple has today launched its latest big App Store promotion, with 100 apps and games now available for a paltry $0.99, with some of the biggest names in the App Store available for some pretty big discounts. Everyone loves a bargain, and if our first run through what’s on offer in this promotion is anything to go by, it’s got more than a couple of must-have titles ripe for the taking.

It’s undeniably important that large corporations such as Apple recruit as many people as humanly possible to test and put beta software through its paces. It’s even more important when that software is actually the underlying operating system that powers most of its mobile devices, namely iOS. With that said, it’s also extremely important that those beta testers aren’t allowed to penalise third-party app developers who work tirelessly to ensure that their apps and software are compatible come the final public release. You could almost hear the app development community chant in harmonious unison today when Apple finally banned iOS beta testers from leaving App Store reviews.

Security online is never a simple thing to get right, but there are some things that developers can do to try and limit the exposure of both themselves and their users. Unfortunately, according to a new report, some of the biggest apps both on iOS and Android are leaving their users potentially open to problems.

The App Store feels like it has been around forever, or at least it does to this long-time iPhone user. To mark the occasion, several big-name developers have made their games and apps free, and although you may not recognize all of the titles involved in the promotion, there are certainly some gems here.
