One can easily get an appointment, the suggestion from a doctor online. Medicines and household medical kits can be purchased through an online app.

We are in a period of social distancing and lockdown. The government has ordered not to roam anywhere even within the city. It brings a great loss to the travel agency.

So they can simply learn through these E-learning apps.

The count of food delivery apps also increases during this lockdown. Since the government announced not to open hotels to stop the spread, People should maintain social distance and not get out of their homes. So now it’s a great fall in the food industry and the download rate of food delivery applications is reduced. But it will find its peak after the lockdown. People will never forget the taste of food made by hotels, so they will surely find a way to go to hotels after the lockdown.

Surprisingly, another app that got the highest download in google play store is the video application.
