An application built for The Financial Times newspaper was named the best iPad or iPhone application designed, according to organizers of Apple’s 2010 Worldwide Developers Conference. The WWDC Wednesday released the 10 winning designs for 2010, the first year without a Mac OS X category.
The 10 winning entrants were evenly split between iPad and iPhone designs. The winners were picked from among more than 225,000 App Store possibilities. Designers earned more than $1 billion so far from Apple’s software application store.
