As part of the I/O conference, Google held its own “Oscar” – the award ceremony for the best Android apps Google Play Award 2016.
The ceremony was held for the first time. Attention in it, first of all, was paid to the innovation of projects. Actually, based on this, they came up with nominations.
The winners in the main categories – best app and best game – were Houzz and Clash Royale, respectively.
