With tech companies targeting mobile growth in developing markets with low-specced entry level devices, some of today’s apps may be a bit heavy around the waist to perform well on these devices. Facebook is one of these apps, and while the company was worked toward making the app faster and more responsive through an endless series of updates, the app can still struggle on lower-end devices. Facebook seems to know this because it’s released Facebook Lite, an app that comes in at 0.25 MB.
You read that right. It comes in at one quarter of a megabyte. Of course there’s a reason for that. It appears the app is just a wrapper for the mobile web site with native Android notifications built in. It also allows people to open messages sent you in the app rather than forcing you to use Facebook Messenger. So, those of you who don’t like that aspect may want to install this just for that. The app is said to be designed with 2G access or limited connectivity in mind and is said to be “efficient with data.”
