With so many apps on our phones dedicated to the boring tasks of adulting, we could all use a little cuteness to combat the mobile banking and bill-paying, don't you agree? Here are a few super-cute apps to add a little fun and "aww" to your day.
1 Neko Atsume
You'll find this kitty-collecting app in the games section, but it's really not a game at all. You just set out virtual treats and watch the make-believe kittens come to your yard. Cuteness overload!
2 Tiny Wings
Another addictive game, this one with sweet little birds (and are those frogs?). The music is just as darling as the little bird themselves... it's so calming!
3 Hatch
If you're a 90s kid, you remember the Tamagotchi, little egg-shaped electronic pets you took care of (or didn't take care of, and then had to deal with the guilt for weeks). This app features a little critter you need to care for, too, and if there's ever been a more precious virtual pet than him, I haven't seen it.
4 Monsters Ate My Birthday Cake
It sounds like a reasonable premise for a game, right? And this isn't just any game. It's the cleverest, cutest game ever.
5 Trees of Doom
This is a game, and an addictive one at that! Your goal is to get your adorable little ninja up into the trees. It's harder, and cuter, than it sounds!
6 Lost Yeti
The yeti is cute, and the game environments are cute, both in a very retro 1980s arcade sort of way. I keep waiting for Link to appear.
7 Oquonie
I don't know if "cute" is the best word to describe this game, but the drawings are striking in a lot of ways... some of them are cute, others are just really cool.
8 Alphabear
It's as cute as it is educational, a word game with sweet squarish bears to make it fun.
9 Tiny Tower
This tower-building game is old-school bit-tastic! The characters who inhabit your tower are really cute and funny, and there are so many of them!
10 Nyawatobi
A game about jump-roping? That can't possibly be fun, interesting, or cute... can it? Yes. Yes it can.
11 Disney Tsum Tsum
If you love the squishy little real-life tsum tsum stuffies, you'll really like this match-3 style game, too.
12 Patchmania
Don't let the cute exterior of this bunny fool you - he's on a mission for revenge!
13 Pug Run
Bogart is a pug on a mission. Won't you help him along? I mean, of course the answer is yes... how could you resist his puppy cuteness?
14 Hello Kitty Fun Park
Hello Kitty's been the cutest cartoon cat (or is she a girl?) for decades, so it's no wonder her latest game made the list.
15 Bumpy Road
While the "cute" in most of these apps has to do with a wee sweet animal, this game features an old couple even more adorable than Carl and Ellie Fredrickson. No really!
16 Cut the Rope 2
Om Nom's super-cute adventures continue with new friends and new worlds. This game is just as addictive as the first one, so be prepared!
