Indonesians are adjusting to life under COVID-19 restrictions by working from home, ordering deliveries, and meeting digitally. Social media sentiment about COVID-19 has remained positive in Indonesia. Search trends show high interest in symptom information. Shopping behaviors have changed, with more people stocking up on essentials and prioritizing product quality over price. Eating out and travel have decreased significantly. Media consumption has shifted heavily to television and digital platforms. App usage for communication, gaming, productivity and entertainment has increased sharply. Businesses need to adapt to these new consumer behaviors and shifts in order to effectively engage customers during this period.
