With Phase 2 back in place, we can’t help but feel a little déjà vu. 

No more meeting our friends in groups larger than two, and no more dining in... While it sounds like it’s going to be an incredibly long month of takeouts and self-isolation ahead, we should all continue to do our part to reduce the spread of the virus.

Although there are additional restrictions in place, we can still enjoy good food and the occasional outing – while practising safe distancing, of course. We've compiled a list of apps and websites that you need to know to help get you through this trying time:

1. SpaceOut

While dining in may be prohibited, the majority of malls remain open for those of you who wish to collect your take-away food, buy some bubble teas or get some shopping done. 

If you're planning a trip to the mall, SpaceOut is a website that allows you to check crowd levels of malls in Singapore, saving you the time of making wasted trips to malls that are packed to their maximum capacities. If you prefer to get your shopping done at less crowded malls, SpaceOut provides hourly updates on crowd levels, allowing you to steer clear from peak hour crowds.

Not only do they provide information on the mall of your choice, they also recommend nearby heartland malls as less crowded alternatives for you to check out.

2. Safe Distance @ Parks

Everyone needs a breath of fresh air after being cooped up at home for too long — what better to calm your senses than being surrounded by nature? 

Instead of malls, Safe Distance @ Parks lets you check how crowded parks are, and it’s perfect if you want some alone time away from the crowds.

You can check the different parks in Singapore and the hours/days that they are least crowded. Don't forget to take a breather from work and visit one of the parks every now and then!

3-6. Food Delivery Apps

Of course, food delivery websites and apps are essential during this period.

Delivery apps such as Foodpanda, Grab and Deliveroo have hundreds of food merchants available on their platforms and are extremely convenient and simple to use. If you're craving some hawker food, Why Q delivers from nearby hawkers to your doorstep! You don't even have to leave your house now.

If you're unsure of what to order for the day, just log onto one of these apps and you're sure to find something you like! To get the best deals from these apps, you can check out their promo codes on our Facebook page.

7-10. Grocery Apps

Order your groceries online through reputable brands such as Amazon Prime Now, Foodpanda's Pandamart, Lazada x Redmart of Fairprice to save yourself the trouble of long queues and having to squeeze with others for your groceries.
