Even though the structure of simple present tense and present continuous tense are very similar, they both convey different timing and nature of actions. The simple present tense is used for habitual actions, general facts, scheduled events, and states. The present continuous tense is used for actions happening now, temporary situations, planned future events, and trends or changes.
