The final section of our year-concluding extravaganza
It’s the end of the year, and Apple has announced the movers, shakers and groundbreakers that created the most popular apps of 2018. Last week we looked at some of the most popular trends, games, free-to-download apps and the apps designed to make organizing your life just that little bit easier. This week, it’s time for part two.
With 2018 being such an incredible, exciting and diverse year to be engaged with the App Store, we’ve still got plenty more to come. Here, in part two of the apps that could improve your life, we feature the most innovative and popular for your wrist, desktop and phone camera, as well as those AR-awesome apps that reshape reality in front of us.
We’ve also covered the best in business and finance apps, in addition to paying homage to the incredible developers who made 2018 a year to remember for mobile software. In short, you need to check out this compendium of astounding apps before we say goodbye to this year for good.
APPS TO WATCH
In the same year Apple launched its outstanding Apple Watch Series 4, WaterMinder was the most popular Apple Watch app of the year. Helping users to stay hydrated in a more fun and visually engaging way than the iPhone version and similar apps, WaterMinder measures hydration, records the times and volumes of the liquid you take, and tells you how much you have left to drink each day.
Lifesum – which also measures water consumption – finished in second spot, and allows Apple Watch wearers to track their food intake like no other app designed for the wrist. It doesn’t just measure the calories that you burn and eat, as it also shows a macro breakdown of food consumed and can be adjusted to support different dietary needs, such as low-carb, ketogenic and high-protein.
WaterMinder®
