I completely agree, now in our time, everyone uses smartphones, laptops, now it's much easier to study online than offline. As you mentioned, during the quarantine period, it was very difficult to study offline, during this period of time, online study became very popular among people. In addition, thank you very much for providing so many amazing and useful applications for online classes.
