Mobile or computer operating system comes with some dedicated apps for many social media or media streaming websites which are self content and full of utility features. Dedicated Apps for certain websites are necessary because they enhance the accessibility of the different facets of the websites by creating a better interface for the apps. For example, if you have an Android phone or an iPhone, you will use the dedicated Facebook, Instagram, Twitter apps downloaded from the desktop version of the websites. Not every website has a dedicated app and neither do we need. But there are certain websites like Facebook, Instagram, Netflix, Hotstar that urges for dedicated apps on PCs as well.
