iPhone X apps hitting App Store with their own featured section

Now that iPhone X has begun shipping to customers, a “Great on iPhone X” section launched on App Store today highlighting top apps that have been updated for the new handset.

Many apps on our list have simply refreshed their user interface to account for the new iPhone X display size and the notch, but some have introduced handy new capabilities as well.

Popular apps like 1Password, Halide, Deliveries and more received updates to support iPhone X.

Plex has implemented support for playback of HEVC-encoded videos (H.265) while apps like 1Password, Dashlane and Day One have gained Face ID authentication.

There is no sense listing off all the updates, but here are the more prominent ones:

• Halide
• Alto’s Adventure
• Canary Smart Security
• Darkroom
• Deliveries
• Shazam
• Tweetbot 4
• Enlight
• Fantastical 2
• Just Press Record
• ProCam 5
• 1Password 7
• Super Mario Run
• Plex
• Afterlight 2
• Dashlane
• Day One journal
• Medium
• Nike+ Run Club
• Carrot Weather

Remember, if you will, that it took certain app makers years to adapt to the last major change in iOS screen size (we’re not mentioning any names, but you know who they are). In fact, I have plenty of apps that are still not optimized for Plus-sized iPhones.
