Description
The Galaxy Store has its origins in a mobile developer program launched in 2008, Samsung Mobile Innovator. Samsung Mobile Applications, an app store powered by Handango launched at Mobile World Congress 2009 providing software for Windows Mobile, Symbian, and (from August) Java ME. The services had been established in China and several European countries by the third quarter of 2009. On 14 September 2009, Samsung Apps launched initially in western Europe, providing software for the Samsung Omnia (i900) and Samsung Omnia HD (i8910) smartphones with more devices added later. In 2010 it started offering apps for the Bada platform, which the Samsung Wave runs on. There were 10 million app downloads by September 2010 in Europe, made up of Java, Windows Mobile and Bada apps. There was also a Samsung Apps TV for smart TVs, which had gotten 10 million downloads by October 2011. Samsung also held a developer challenge called Free the TV Challenge, which was won by WeDraw in 2010, an application that could draw on mobile and display on the TV screen. In March 2011 Samsung Apps was launched for the Galaxy line, running Android. Samsung Apps had 40,000 applications by its second anniversary in 2011. The store was also offered on Samsung Gear wearables and Samsung REX feature phones. A feature called S Suggest (app and www.ssuggest.com) was launched in 2013 that would suggest apps from the store to users. This service was closed in 2014.[citation needed] In July 2014, with the Galaxy line mostly consolidating Samsung's mobile offerings, Samsung Apps was rebranded to Galaxy Apps. In 2018, Samsung began an annual award for the best developers, called Best of Galaxy Store Awards. At the inaugural award at the Samsung Developer Ceremony, Booking.com was awarded 'Best App' and Wrist Camera the 'Best Watch App', amongst others.
