Apple reveals the most popular iPhone apps of 2017

applicationsApple just revealed the most popular apps of 2017, and Snap took the top two spots on the list, beating out Facebook, Google, and Netflix.

While Snapchat was the most downloaded app in 2016, it fell to number 2 this year, with Snap-owned Bitmoji taking over. This isn't a huge surprise, as Bitmoji has seen explosive growth over the past year and a half as it steadily integrates the app's customizable emoji into Snapchat.

This is the full list of the 20 most downloaded apps this year, according to Apple:

Bitmoji

Snapchat

YouTube

Messenger

Instagram

Facebook

Google Maps

Netflix

Spotify

Uber

Gmail

Pandora Music

Amazon

WhatsApp

Wish

Twitter

SoundCloud

Google Chrome

Waze

Lyft

Most of the list is no big surprise, with Facebook Messenger, Instagram, and Facebook taking fourth, fifth, and sixth place. Uber just barely made it into the top 10 for the first time, and rival Lyft made it to #20.

When it comes to paid apps, the top spots belong to Facetune, Tabs & Chords, and the scheduling app HotSchedules.

In terms of games, the most popular app is Nintendo's Super Mario Run. The simulation game 8 Ball Pool was a close second, followed by Snake VS Block, Ballz, and Word Cookies!

In paid games, Ellen DeGeneres' Heads Up was the most popular for the third year in a row.

Apple editors also announced their picks for the best apps of the year. Meditation app Calm was named the best iPhone app of the year, while Splitter Critters won the best iPhone.
