Open Award Contests

We are looking for the best-looking, most intuitive, creative and unique mobile UI designs. An attractive and practical mobile UI design is essential to the success of an app.

Only the most gorgeous mobile design, logo, layouts and color schemes will be considered. We will be paying close attention to the mobile apps that focus on user experience and interaction

The Best Social or Lifestyle Mobile App award contest exists for the person on the go. We are looking for apps that appeal to the person with a busy life and no time to spare, including social networking, blogging, productivity, news, magazines, communication, photography etc.

All apps that increase productivity, help people network together or keep people informed on the go will be honored and considered.

Finding apps isn't difficult. Finding education apps is only a bit more challenging. Finding free education apps is also possible, but finding free education apps worth downloading is a different story entirely.

We are looking for the best education apps. This can include formal learning (math drilling and phonics for example), as well as apps that are not purely academic (training apps that focus on individual skills for example.)

To qualify, all apps in this contest must be able to be used daily to improve one's ability to think, connect, and use information.

User interface, originality, usability, and creativity are some of the things our judges will be looking for in all submissions for the Best Overall App of 2017.

All mobile platforms will be accepted and considered. Wearables and virtual reality apps are also encouraged to enter. The nominees and winners of this award represent the best apps across all app markets in 2017.

Mobile games can be very addicting. They come in many flavors from turn-based offline games, live multiplayer games, sports, to casual games played on your bathroom break.

Our judges are looking for games that reel the players in and hook them for an extended period of time. Sometimes obtaining a high score is enough, and other times just finishing the last level to show off to your friends can make gameplay last for months.

If you can hook our judges on one of your games, you might just win the award for Most Addicting Mobile Game of January 2017.

Mobile devices have transformed our daily lives, both for entertainment and for productivity. While much attention is given to the best consumer apps, mobile apps that help you do your job better are arguably even more important.

We are looking for the best business & productivity apps that can help you be a rock star at work, increase efficiency and make collaboration easy. Special consideration will be given to apps that give access to work data, have good functionality and user interfaces, and apps that create a seamless transition from the desk to the beach.
