More than one billion people around the world are connected through Facebook, and it looking like the social network giant wants even more people than that on their social network. A stripped-down version of the Facebook app in the Google Play Store is now launched, called Facebook Lite, it is made to use less data and to work on all network types.
The Facebook Lite app already launched in a few country’s back in January, but that was only for testing purposes. After the testing in it now making its way to more regions. The whole app is weighing less than 1MB, it is quick to install, and all the key features from the “standard” Facebook app are included in this build. Facebook gave us an explanation:
“More than a billion people around the world access Facebook from a range of mobile devices on varying networks. In many areas, networks can be slow and not able to support all the functionality found in Facebook for Android. Facebook Lite was built for these situations, giving people a reliable Facebook experience when bandwidth is at a minimum.”
