This is still an impressive milestone though for the already popular learning application (via Android Police). You may remember the last time Google Classroom was discussed, it was not download figures, it was review bombing from students after transitioning to the platform earlier in the year. With classes going from in-person to online, this was bound to happen as millions of students across the globe were told to stay away from schools, colleges, and universities. The learning-focused app has now achieved over 100 million downloads on the online app portal as students shift to a learning-from-home model. And finally, Google is piloting a Google Assistant-guided vaccine booking flow that will make the process of booking vaccine slots less intimidating for non-tech-savvy users.As normal classroom learning has been curtailed as a result of COVID-19 lockdowns, Google Classroom has seen a surge of downloads on the Google Play Store.

Meanwhile, Google Pay users in India will soon be able to split bills with friends. Google Search is also gaining the ability to read out loud search results in five Indian languages. For one, Google is rolling out a new feature to Google Search that will automatically translate English results and web pages into select Indian local language on the fly. In addition to Google Classroom, Google announced several new India-specific initiatives for Google Search, Google Pay, and Google Assistant.

Google also shared that it’s worked with various partners such as CBSE, the state government of Maharashtra/Dehli, and FICCI Arise to train over 550k teachers on digital skills for education. For the unaware, Google Classroom is a free learning platform that connects students and teachers 'inside and outside of schools.' The platform integrates multiple Google services, including Google Docs, Google Sheets, Google Slides, Google Calendar, and Gmail, to distribute assignments and communicate.
