For years, Java has been the standard for developing Android apps. In 2011, JetBrains presented Kotlin, a new statically-typed language running on Java Virtual Machine. In 2017, during Google I/O, Kotlin was announced as an official language for Android development. As Kotlin is a modern programming language with powerful features, it gained popularity among Android developers. It was placed second on the list of the most loved programming languages in the Stack Overflow Developer Survey 2018.

Here is a list of 10 great Android mobile apps written in Kotlin. Some of them have been developed by top companies and have had millions of downloads from Google Play, while others are popular open-source projects appreciated by developers.
