When the stay-at-home restrictions enforced due to the pandemic disrupted the education industry, mobile phones stepped in as temporary tutors, and education apps provided the much-needed solution. The accelerated usage of learning apps in schools and educational institutions is normalizing digital education tools for millions of teachers, students, and their families.
As per reports published by Valuates Reports, the global education apps market was valued at $37.78bn in 2021 and is expected to reach $101.33bn by 2028, registering a CAGR of 15.0 percent during the period.
This significant growth can be attributed to the rising awareness of education apps, growing internet penetration rates and smartphone use, and increased emphasis on technology by educational institutions.
The high screen time among Gen Z users makes the increased adoption of education apps even more likely. In addition, Gen Z users have been found to spend ten percent more time than other users on non-gaming apps. The success of education apps is highly dependent on the inclusion of modern technologies like gamification. Internal rewards for achievements and the inclusion of avatars have made learning more fun for students and keep them engaged. Educational apps that leverage the latest technologies have seamlessly bridged the gap between home learning and at-school learning by providing parents access to a portal where they can review their child’s progress.
