Google names a few Android and Chromebook apps the best Google Play apps of the previous year at the end of each year. The unofficial award highlights the trends that set each year apart while honoring a scattering of well-made and practical apps. Thanks to new categories that emphasize AI, the top Android apps in the US for 2023 are essentially a case study for that latter part.
Some of the greatest apps of this year are practically required downloads. Due to its ability to stream music across multiple devices at once, Spotify, the most popular music streaming service in the nation, is regarded as the “Best Multi-Device App” for 2023. A friend-finding and networking spinoff of the well-known Bumble dating app, Bumble For Friends (BFF), was recognized by Google Play as the “Best for Fun” category.
For better or worse, everyone is familiar with ChatGPT, which was also recognized with a Google Play award. Google’s app roundup says, “To reflect this year’s trends, we introduced new award categories that recognize helpful apps using the latest technology,” Among these is the “Best with AI” category, where ChatGPT surprisingly received honorable mention. Instead, the chatbot won something akin to first place in Google Play’s “User’s Choice App” category. Character AI, an app that features numerous chatbots that unsettlingly mimic historical figures, was named “Best with AI.”
Even less well-known apps were included. Via virtual animals, Voidpet Garden, which Google Play deemed “Best for Personal Growth,” teaches users self-care and mindfulness techniques. The “Best Hidden Gem,” Aware, provides mindfulness exercises through journaling and guided appreciation practices. The “Best Everyday Essential” app for 2023, Artifact, organizes news stories on a variety of subjects into a feed that resembles X. Google Play awarded A World, an app created by the United Nations ACT NOW campaign that teaches users about everyday sustainability, the title of “Best App for Good.” Kids’ problem-solving app PAW Patrol Academy won Google Play’s “Best for Families” title.
Learn Visually, an app that offers interactive, bite-sized lessons on subjects like philosophy, history, finance, and technology, is the winner of Google Play’s overall “Best App of 2023” award. Reviewers appreciate that Imprint helps them become well-rounded while satiating their learning itch, and Google seems to like the app’s propensity to “use visual storytelling to bring concepts to life.”
