Facebook has just released Messenger Lite, a minimal version of our well-known messaging application that offers optimized use on basic Android devices and slow connections.
The company hopes that this application will offer easier access to people from developing countries. Messenger Lite is smaller than 10MB, and offers all the basic features of the main application, such as: sending text, photos and links.
Users will be able to receive stickers but will not be able to download them.
Messenger Lite is completing Facebook Lite, a basic version of the social networking application for mobile phones released last June in India and the Philippines.
Messenger Lite was first released in Kenya, Tunisia, Malaysia, Sri Lanka and Venezuela. The company notes that it will become available in other countries in the coming months.
