Fresh from announcing the 2022 App Store Awards Winners, Apple has revealed the most downloaded apps on the Australian App Store this year.
Listed below is an eclectic mix of classics combined with new apps. It sure makes for interesting reading to find out what software we install the most.
Australia’s most downloaded apps on iPhone
Minecraft continues to be overwhelmingly popular, as does Lion Studios’ adaptation of the popular online word-guessing game Wordle! A few travel apps top the paid iPhone charts, likely representing Australians keen to travel after pandemic restrictions. Also, the photo-sharing app BeReal overtook TikTok, an indication that a still-photo platform is in demand. Take note, Instagram.

Australia’s most downloaded apps on iPad
Aside from slight variations, the most popular iPad apps share plenty of similarities to the iPhone charts. Unsurprisingly, Procreate, the brilliant digital art app from Tasmanian-based studio Savage Interactive, is number one on the paid iPad charts. It also won an Apple Design Award earlier in the year for its inclusive design and accessibility features.
At least one headscratcher stands out: TikTok on iPad? As a platform entirely based on vertically-aligned phone content, it’s an interesting choice to download it on a tablet.

Australia’s most downloaded apps on Apple Arcade
What’s old is new again when it comes to the popular Apple Arcade games this year. Angry Birds is back with a vengeance, as the NBA 2K series continues its domination of the sports genre. Interestingly, the Australian-made Wylde Flowers, recently crowned as the Apple Arcade Game of the Year, didn’t crack the top 10.
However, when you look at the list, games that focus on quick gameplay loops suited for replayability are heavily represented. Conversely, Wylde Flowers encourages a deeper time investment with its story, which may result in fewer downloads.
Top Arcade Games
- Angry Birds Reloaded
- NBA 2K22 Arcade Edition
- Bloons TD 6+
- Sonic Racing
- Mini Motorways
- Solitaire by MobilityWare+
- LEGO® Star Wars
