Despite being a lightweight app, Facebook Lite still offers a premium user experience that is paired with a plethora of features. This app has been designed for lower-end smartphones that do not benefit from powerful hardware specs which means that Facebook Lite can be installed on all types of older smartphones. To make things even better, Facebook Lite’s software has been optimized to the point that it can load online media and the newsfeed even in bad internet conditions such as 2G or LTE.
Always Improving
Even though Facebook Lite is a lightweight version of Facebook, this doesn’t mean that it doesn’t benefit from the same full-fledged developer treatment as the original app does. In fact, Facebook Lite is always being improved with software tweaks, bug fixes and new features every week. Therefore, it shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone that Facebook Lite has just received a new update and today we are going to cover everything there is to know about it.
