Swiggy introduces ‘Incognito Mode’ for discreet ordering

Swiggy

Foodtech giant Swiggy has introduced an ‘incognito mode’ feature, allowing users to place orders privately on its food delivery and quick commerce platforms.

The new feature removes the need to manually erase orders from history.

“As social as our lives are becoming, some things are still best kept private. Incognito Mode is designed to meet that need,” said Rohit Kapoor, CEO of Swiggy’s Food Marketplace.
