Will our habits change post covid lockdown?

The world would never be same post hashtagcovid given our habits will change. Habits require a min of 21 days to develop while we seem to have much more! As hashtagconsumers, we have changed so much in last few weeks. Our time spent on screens has skyrocketed. We are trying hashtagdigital variations of various old world necessities already – a) Epapers over physical Newspapers/magazines b) Fitness Videos/Live sessions Vs a gym c) Cooking food via online videos Vs ordering food d) Watching user generated content over social media Vs proper content e) Reading/listening to hashtagdigitalbooks Vs physical books
f) Watching new genres of hashtagOTT content Vs Cable because of lack of fresh GEC content All this will have some retention effect as we come out of hashtaglockdown & thus brands are pivoting to add value to user experience in this period – 1. hashtagYouTube changed its metrics of views from millions/billions to Lakhs/Crores. 2. hashtagLinkedIn has added new features including ‘Featured Content’ 3. Many digital reading apps have given free trials for weeks/months – hashtagKindle, hashtagBlinkist. 4. Education Content brands offering free classes/content – hashtagByjus, Amar Chitra Katha. Are you seeing any changes in your hashtaghabits in this hashtaglockdown with adoption of a particular app/product or service? Which one?
