Growth Drivers
Another important technological factor for the demand for digital therapeutics is the increase in smartphone and internet use among people. The Indian market is the world's fastest-growing application market, according to a report published by the India Cellular and Electronics Association, in July 2020. In 2019, the nation had 500 million smartphone users, with that number projected to increase to 829 million, by 2022.

The outbreak of COVID-19 had a positive influence on the concerned market. The emergence of demand for easy and affordable digital health solutions is the primary COVID-related market driver. For the duration of the pandemic, the FDA announced in April 2020 that it will make it easier to get and use digital health therapeutic devices for mental health issues.

As a result, digital therapeutics providers can commercialize their solutions without having to comply with traditional regulatory standards, as long as the products do not pose an unnecessary risk in light of the public health emergency.

A factor that is anticipated to push the therapeutics market forward is mental wellbeing. The pandemic worsened mental health problems, highlighting the need for new treatment methods. This opens up a lucrative opportunity for digital therapeutics firms.
