Lockdown 4.0, the fourth phase of the nationwide lockdown, has been imposed till 31st of May with so many relaxations. But the cases on the day first of lockdown 4.0 have been crossed the 1 Lac, over 3000 deaths.
Many things changed with the lockdown or Lockdown has changed the way to use or consume many things. As you only need to stay at home, the use of online technology has increased suddenly. The number of users on Youtube, Facebook, Online games users across all the social media platforms has increased. Some of the Online Platforms have got huge profits in lockdown. That I am using personally too.
By not just scrolling the screen but also learning new recipes, skills, and having experience of untouched features of this platform. We are learning various new things which we have not tried due to lack of time. I am pretty much sure you people also enjoying the same way. Some people are busy in exploring new areas on online platforms to use as new opportunities for them. And I know you people also learn from them too and used them as an opportunity. Some of them are:
Users on Facebook: During the lockdown, users of Facebook have increased. Stats for numbers of active users is much higher than as compared to previous data. Nowadays this social media platform is one of the best marketing tools to reach millions of people by targeting the correct audience by location, demographics, and interests and build brand loyalty.
And in lockdown when people can’t go outside to sell their products and services, they have started selling things in the online platform. And no doubt Facebook is one of the best sources to reach the correct audience if used in a veracious manner.
Zoom: The app is India’s favorite lockdown app for personal and professional reasons both. The app who was in loss before lockdown suddenly grows billion of profit in lockdown. This app is the example that if you think big, you cant be in loss. People use this app for office meetings because 300 people at one time can easily connect to this app. For birthday parties, anniversaries people are doing digital get together with this easy to use app.
Whatsapp: One of the best messaging app with calling feature till date. Whatsapp users have also increased on this lockdown. Whatsapp has also doubled the number of participants from four to eight on a voice/video call in this lockdown.
Facebook recently launched a Messenger Room feature similar to the zoom or Google Meet. The feature is available for everyone and soon it will be accessible via WhatsApp allowing its users to directly have group calls with friends on Facebook. Users need to have a Facebook account to create a room that takes place outside of WhatsApp. People can connect by scanning the QR code.
QR code And Whatsapp room features are under beta testing now and will be available soon for use.
Online Games: Addiction to Pubg is also we all aware about one of the youth lovers’ games. People have reinstalled the game as they have enough time to play now during the lockdown.
Ludo being launch way back, has really come into being during the lockdown. People who are away from their families reliving their childhood memories by playing the same old game with new technology.
Ludo, Tambola, house party games have united the families. Uno from Mattel is also hiked up in this lockdown. That is a family fun game that everyone enjoys regardless of age.
These are some of the likest things related to technology that people enjoying in this lockdown.
And this covid-19 has given us signals that now its time for the digital revolution. And big MNCs also promote work from home jobs for their employees. And due to social distancing norms people will be connected digitally more as compared to visiting places.
