As has been the case the past couple of years, Apple has announced the finalists in the running for its annual Apple Design Awards. The awards ceremony revealing the winners will be held during WWDC at 6:30 pm Pacific on June 6th.
The finalists have been divided into six categories that include six finalists each:
Inclusivity
- Anne
- Universe – Website Builder
- Passenger Assistance
- stitch.
- Ancient Board Game Collection
- Finding Hannah
Delight and Fun
Interaction
Social Impact
Visuals and Graphics
Innovation
- SwingVision: A.I. Tennis App
- Camo Studio
- Rise: Energy & Sleep Tracker
- Resident Evil Village
- stitch.
- MARVEL SNAP
The selections include a broad selection of games and apps, including some apps from smaller developers like Knotwords, Afterplace, and Gentler Streak, as well as titles from bigger publishers.
This is the third year in a row that Apple has announced the finalists in advance, which I like a lot. Winning an ADA is a big achievement for any developer, but it’s also nice to know who the finalists are because it’s quite an honor among the many apps that could have been chosen too.
