New Delhi | Jagran Technology Desk: Socializing is important, and no matter how much people criticise this generation for being hooked to their smartphones all the time, it is nearly impossible to survive even a day without technology now. Owing to this, a day has been dedicated to social media on June 30, which is observed as World Social Media Day 2021 globally. 

As the day is here, we bring you the top 5 Indian social media apps which we can proudly use in our own languages too. Here, take a look:

Hike

Hike is one of the most successful social media apps of India. This is a chatting platform and is similar to WhatsApp. This app was launched in 2012 and is well-known for its user interface. Hike is also loved by Indians for its quirky stickers which add the desi element in chatting.

Koo

Koo is India's own version of microblogging site, Twitter. Here, you can talk, express your views and share audios and videos like Twitter. This app also gives you a facility of using Indian languages.
