New Facebook app ‘Lite’ on data

Facebook Lite has been developed for devices that have low specifications and at the same time, the application is using less data than the full version of the application.

POLOKWANE – Are you an avid Facebook user? Are you, like most people, struggling to keep up with the cost of data?

NOOO

Facebook has now made it easier to access their newsfeeds by introducing Facebook Lite.

Facebook Lite has been developed for devices that have low specifications and at the same time, the application is using less data than the full version of the application.

What makes Facebook Lite more appealing is that unlike the normal app, Facebook Lite does not require you to install Facebook Messenger in order to be able to talk to your friends from this social platform. On Facebook Lite you can just tap on the “Messages” button and from there you will see all your private chats.

The Facebook Lite has only 262KB in size, which is very small compared to the full version of the application. The application is also great for devices that have a weak internet connection, because it will compress the data as much as possible to lower the data consumption.

Even if the application is very small, it comes with key elements such as News Feed, Messenger, Groups, and all other essential features that the full version of the application comes with.

Facebook Lite includes Facebook’s core experiences but uses less data.
