Editors’ Choice celebrates the very best apps and games—handpicked by App Store Editors around the world.

No instructions, no rules. Pok Pok offers a universal play space for preschoolers of all backgrounds and abilities to tap around and see what they stumble upon.
Our biggest surprise: How much there is to discover. In this playroom, kids might find an elaborate marble run propelled by both wind and gravity. They might try their hand at creating (surprisingly subdued) loops with a sequencer. We smiled as our littles ones experimented with washing virtual laundry—although we wondered how the tomatoes would fare in the spin cycle.

Our favorite discovery: Inclusivity is at the app’s core. Because there’s no text or speech, anyone can play regardless of their language or reading level. Almost all of the digital toys start off soundless—it’s the child who brings them to life, letting those who are neurodivergent or easily overstimulated play their own way.
We knew we loved it when: We saw Pok Pok paint a world where everyone belongs. Characters span races, ages, cultures, and abilities—and the play itself draws from different customs. Kids might bob to the beat of a dragon dance at Lunar New Year, see the elements of a Holi celebration, or celebrate Pride Month throughout the app.
