A<unk> lication or<unk>  is a computer program or software<unk> lication designed to run on a<unk>  device such as a phone, tablet, or watch.<unk> lications often stand in contrast to desktop<unk> lications which are designed to run on desktop computers, and web<unk> lications which run in<unk>  web browsers rather than directly on the<unk>  device.<unk> s were originally intended for productivity assistance such as email, calendar, and contact databases, but the public demand for<unk> s caused rapid expansion into other areas such as<unk>  games, factory automation, GPS and location-based services, order-tracking, and ticket purchases, so that there are now millions of<unk> s available. Many<unk> s require Internet access.<unk> s are generally downloaded from<unk>  stores, which are a type of digital distribution platforms. The term "app", short for "software<unk> lication", has since become very popular; in 2010, it was listed as "Word of the Year" by the American Dialect Society.<unk> s are broadly classified into three types: native<unk> s, hybrid and web<unk> s. Native<unk> lications are designed specifically for a<unk>  operating system, typically iOS or Android. Web<unk> s are written in HTML5 or CSS and typically run through a browser. Hybrid<unk> s are built using web technologies such as JavaScript, CSS, and HTML5 and function like web<unk> s disguised in a native container.
