The start of lockdowns and
restrictive measures in April 2020 marked the beginning of the drastic increase in downloads for remote education
apps such as
Google Classroom, and Edmondo, as did other mobile device learning tools, such as Duolingo, Photomath, and the popular UDictionary, says a new study by an alternative app store.
These same apps saw a new surge in downloads in November; when 67 countries kept their schools closed, aff ecting 693 million children, roughly 40 per cent of the world’s students, said Uptodown.
