Snoonu
Snoonu has all the nuts and bolts of a standard delivery app with a wide selection of restaurants, supermarkets, pharmacies, electronic shops, and more. But unlike many of its competitors, you can reserve products for takeaway. It is also NAPS enabled, which means that you can choose to pay for your purchases with a locally issued debit card. But above all, Snoonu has taken steps to protect its delivery drivers from the heat during the hottest weeks of the year by only sending them out in cars between 10 am and 5 pm, and that tops any in-app feature.
