Apple’s Find My Named Best Utility App on Most Voted Apps
The community has spoken: Apple’s location-tracking app Find My has won the Most Voted App Award in the Utilities category. GrandPerspective and Google Chrome take second and third place. Seven more apps have been nominated, including two German government apps, AusweisApp Bund and i-Kfz. In November, the community is looking for the best productivity app.
Bonn, November 2, 2026 – The app for the moment your keys go missing: Apple’s Find My has won the October community award on Most Voted Apps. The app, which comes preinstalled on iPhone, iPad and Mac and lets users locate Apple devices, AirTags and accessories, took first place in the Utilities category. Second place went to GrandPerspective, a Mac tool that visualizes disk usage as a treemap, revealing which files take up the most space. The cross-platform browser Google Chrome took third place.
This is the second monthly award on Most Voted Apps. In September, DaVinci Resolve won the Photo & Video category. Launched on September 15, 2026, the platform bases its app rankings on community votes rather than download figures or editorial reviews.
“Find My is an app that’s already on every iPhone, and one that many people only truly appreciate once their keys or luggage have gone missing,” says Stephan Ehrmann, founder of Most Voted Apps and Managing Director of movo media GmbH. “What I find particularly interesting is that two apps from Germany’s public administration, AusweisApp Bund and i-Kfz, have been nominated. Digital government services seem to be resonating with users.”
The apps ranked fourth through tenth now carry the title “Nominee” on Most Voted Apps: the file archiver Keka, AusweisApp Bund for electronic identification, the file search tool Find Any File, the VPN client WireGuard, i-Kfz from Germany’s Federal Motor Transport Authority for digital vehicle registration certificates, Apple’s file manager Files, and the DuckDuckGo browser. Winners and nominees receive a virtual medal on Most Voted Apps. Developers can display the award on their websites free of charge; the required HTML code can be copied directly from the developer section.
November: Finding the Best Productivity Apps
Following the Utilities Award, the next voting round began on November 1. This time, the community is looking for the best apps in the Productivity category – from to-do lists and note-taking apps to office software. Users have one month to vote for their favorites and decide which apps will receive an award.
About Most Voted Apps
Most Voted Apps is a community-powered leaderboard for apps. User votes determine the rankings rather than download figures or positions in an app store. Users can upvote or downvote apps with a click or tap, and the rankings update live. The aim is to give visibility both to well-known applications and to apps that receive less attention in traditional app store charts. The platform currently lists just under 2,200 apps. Apps that receive neither positive nor negative votes for an extended period are removed, keeping the selection manageable despite the constantly growing number of available apps.
Attempts to manipulate the rankings are penalized. A jury of well-known technology and media experts contributes personal recommendations, but its members have no more voting power than other users. The platform is funded through advertising. Sponsored apps are clearly labeled and do not affect the order of the community leaderboard. Most Voted Apps is free to use and available in German and English.
