2023 Apple Design Award Winners Announced During WWDC

Flighty is a good app. Will try out Railbound

Only if you live in the US. Next to useless anywhere else.

Really? I've used it for international flights and it was still helpful, but maybe I'm missing something.

Flighty is awesome and totally deserves this accolade.

Wait WTH?!



Something is REALLY wrong with Apple's evaluation or understanding of Applications in their ecosystem, or macrumors editor has a serious mis-type, or somebody at Apple is high (maybe our editor too)?

How on earth does an Education application like DuoLingo get set into delight and fun? Sure I get how the application has that funny psycho bird but learning is supposed to be fun. But it's an educational app first and foremost.

Words don’t mean anything anymore. I mean wtf even are these categories. They’re like bad Jeopardy topics.

Wait WTH?!

I’d have been snarky and given Apollo a special award outside these categories just to rub Reddit’s nose in it.
