Apple Rolls Out New 'Kids' Category on App Store

Apple has unveiled a new Kids category on the App Store [Direct Link], MacStories noted. The page includes multiple sections, including the best apps for certain ages, games specifically for kids, and different types of learning apps like 'Create & Play' and 'Shapes & Colors'.  First announced at WWDC in June alongside iOS 7′s developer debut, the Kids category is aimed at facilitating the process of finding apps and games based on age ratings. The category is curated by Apple editors, who, according to the company, “search the App Store for the best apps in each age group — up to 11 years old”.Back in August, Apple sent emails to developers asking them to submit apps for the new category.  The Kids section is viewable on the App Store on iOS devices, as well as iTunes on Macs and PCs.   Recent Mac and iOS Blog Stories • Disney Launches Sandbox Creation Game 'Disney Infinity: Toy Box" for iPad • Refurbished Mid-2013 11-Inch MacBook Airs Now Available in Apple Online Store  • iOS 7 Allows Siri to Disable Find My iPhone via Airplane Mode in Security/Convenience Trade-Off • Apple Releases Chrome and Firefox Extensions for Windows to Support iCloud Bookmark Syncing • Sapphire Home Buttons Coming to New iPads? • Rovio's 'Angry Birds Star Wars II' Hits the App Store • iOS 7 App Update Roundup: Pocket, Evernote, OmniFocus 2, Kindle, and More • Apple Chairman Art Levinson to Head Google Spinoff Dedicated to Solving Age-Related Health Issues
