The apps allow for users to create welcome and landing tabs using different languages, such as HTML, iframe, javascript, Flash or also to display their social media content on these tabs.
A few photo apps were also on the list. 60 Photos grew by 1 million MAU and allows a user to click “nice” or “pass” on their friends’ Facebook photos, posting a story to your friend’s Wall with each answer. Then there was Top Friends Of Mine (Enhanced) which grew by 460,200 MAU, creating a photo ranking your friends based on comments/Likes, publishing a photo album and photo to your stream with a link to the app, also inviting you to tag your friends in the photo.
Finally there was Send Gift, with 1.8 million MAU; the app sends heart-shaped goods to your friends’ Walls. The friend.ly Connect app grew by about 652,000 MAU. Finally, the Zoosk dating app grew by 630,100 MAU.
