The Most Popular Apps on Google Play

If you’re looking to design the next big consumer-facing app and feature it on the Google Play store, you’ve got a bit of an uphill battle. Nearly doubling the available apps on the Apple Store, Google Play has nearly 4 million apps to choose from.

If you want to make a splash with your next app idea, you have to work hard and think creatively to avoid getting lost in the shuffle. The first thing you’ll need to do is find the right mobile app developer. When you look for mobile app devs that care about their clients you will ensure a democratic design process that guarantees your vision is never compromised. Find a developer that considers you a partner and not just a client.

The second thing you’ll need to do is peruse the Google Play Store for apps that are doing well, and see what inspiration you can draw. Below, you’ll find the apps that have been making waves this summer on the Google Play Store.

Google Gallery Go

Remember the fun times of summer with Google Gallery Go. Long after summer is gone, you’ll be able to quickly find the photos and videos you made, thanks to the clear organization that Gallery Go offers. Your photos and videos will be organized into folders and albums in a way that suits you! If you want to edit, do it with ease. Google Gallery Go gives effortless access to all your memories.

Kwench

Enjoying the outdoors in the hot summer can be so fun that you forget all of the warnings to stay hydrated. The Kwench app will keep you on top of things. Doctors recommend eight cups of water a day, but Kwench estimates a personalized amount for you, based on body composition, age and climate. You are then reminded to drink throughout the day, so that you hit that optimum amount. Easy!

Netflix

Maybe it’s raining outside, maybe it’s the evening, or maybe you just want to relax and be entertained. With the Netflix smartphone app you have a fantastic variety of movies and TV shows to choose from. You can stream and watch your movies any time, any where.

New TV shows and movies are continuously added, so there is always something new to discover, and you get notifications when anything new lands. Up to five different profiles can be put on a Netflix account, so that everyone in your household can have their own personalized Netflix experience. This personalization includes recommendations for TV shows and movies based on

your viewing history.

SkipTheDishes

Too hot to cook, or you just don’t want to? With SkipTheDishes, you can order food delivery any time between 6am and 2am, and get just about any kind of food you can think of. There is such a variety of restaurants to choose from, whether you’re in the mood for Chinese, Indian, Tibetan, Mexican, or just a classic pizza!

Everyone can be satisfied with the selection. Restaurant partners include McDonald’s, Tim Horton’s, KFC, Mr. Sub and Burger King, but there are many, many more. This app allows you to track the delivery in real time or get order updates via text, and it simplifies payment. Stored order history makes it easy to re-order your favourites, as well.

SoundCloud

The SoundCloud app has the largest music streaming catalogue available to users, perfect for transitioning from your summer soundtrack to fall. Unlike Spotify, SoundCloud features not only major artists, but relatively unknown artists. Hear great music here first, tell your friends, and set your own trends!

These popular apps will keep you happy this summer, and beyond. So, if you’re looking to design the next big app, pay close attention to what you’ve just read and be inspired!
