There are 45 finalists across 12 categories, including a first-ever Apple Vision Pro category. Apple said the awards recognize developers who delivered the “highest levels of user experience, design, and innovation” on the App Store this year.
Kino was released earlier this year by Lux, the makers of the popular iPhone camera app Halide.
Other notable finalists include NYT Games for the iPhone, Procreate Dreams for the iPad, Zoom for the Apple TV, NBA for the Apple Vision Pro, and more.
