Contactless and mobile payments
Whether it's Apple Pay on the Tube or a card wave at the corner shop, contactless has all but replaced fumbling for coins. For many Britons, cash is now an afterthought.
Streaming platforms
Netflix, iPlayer and Prime have rewritten how we watch television, killing off appointment viewing and the once-sacred 9pm drama slot. Box sets on demand are the new normal.
Smartphone satnav and maps
Navigating British towns without turning the map upside down is now second nature. Live traffic, bus times and walking routes have made the paper A-Z a museum piece.
Video calling
Once a novelty, video calls became essential during lockdown and now underpin remote work, GP appointments and staying in touch with distant family.
Online grocery shopping
Weekly shops booked from the sofa have transformed how households eat and plan. Delivery slots are now as coveted as concert tickets around Christmas.
