Note
The plural is regular, but it gathers up every shortening that app stands for. Usually it means more than one application program, yet it can also mean informal applications to a college, or approaches. One use exists only in the plural: apps as a clipped form of appeals, with no singular app to match it. Context, not the spelling, tells you which one is meant.
