During times of great need and delinquency, an app to order what you need sometimes can be a hand of salvation from the heavens. Apart from urgent needs, we sometimes want some specific foods or feel like not going out and buying our groceries. And at such moments, successfully functioning apps such as Getir, istegelsin, or Banabi, can turn food and grocery shopping into a simple task. As well as these apps might assist us during difficult times, they have proved their worth repeatedly during the Covid-19 pandemic. These delivery apps became the remedy for our needs during restrictions acting as a bridge between markets and people.
