Announcing the iMore Editors' Choice App Gallery!

July 5, 2014

iMore's singular mission is to help anyone and everyone get more out of their iPhone, iPad, iPod, or Mac. That includes reviews and how-tos, news and podcasts, and it absolutely includes apps. They're what make the hardware sing. Yet there are so many apps now — a million and more! — that it can be hard to find the one that's best for you. We've tried to solve that problem before with our best iPhone apps, best iPad apps, and best Mac apps hubs. While those are great for groups, we also wanted to be able to single out apps we thought were worth special attention — your attention. Enter the iMore Editors' Choice App Gallery!

With the Editors' Choice App Gallery, we're carefully curating what we consider to be the very best apps and games and manually adding them to the gallery. In the gallery you can see all the app's information and screenshots, along with our photographs, reviews, and articles. All in once place.

Then the fun starts! All the editors, writers, and staff at iMore can recommend apps in the gallery. When and if we do, you'll see our avatars listed right at the top. That way you'll know which of us, and how many of us, recommend the app.

What's more — Every reader here at iMore can recommend apps and games as well. And yes, when you do, your avatar will appear right at the top as well! That way everyone will know which of the apps you think are worth attention!

Now, the app gallery is still in beta. It's still very much a work in progress. We wanted to get everyone involved early on in the process, however, because the process is very much about everyone, including and especially you!.

Here's what we need you to do:

Go in, take a look, and click/tap the Recommend button on all the apps you want to add your vote to.
Leave a comment below telling us which apps and games we're still missing and the ones you want added the most.

We won't be able to add every app, of course. We want to keep the number limited. We've only added about 50 so far. We'll be adding more, but there'll never be many. Maybe a hundred apps, a hundred games at most. And additions won't be permanent. Better apps will come, and apps that haven't been updated will go. But we want to make sure they're the best apps, and for that, we need your help!
