Messenger Lite
Table of contents:
In Facebook they are concerned about providing service to all users who want it, whatever their conditions. Something that they have already demonstrated trying to take their social network internationally to the whole world, or with the creation of light applications or decaffeinated that help old phone owners access Facebook Now they do it with their messaging application. This is how Messenger Lite
This is a trimmed version of what is currently the Facebook Messenger tool available for Android This means that it adapts its functions and possibilities to the most classic terminals, focused on those sold between 2009 and 2011 and that still in use in developing markets and countries with fairly restrained communication infrastructures such as Tunisia, Kenya, Malaysia, Venezuela or Sri Lanka In this way they can use the messaging service without making excessive use of Internet data or slow connections, and without demanding too much from the capacities techniques of their mobiles.
At the moment we only know the captures that David Marcus, responsible for Facebook Messenger , has shared through the social network Facebook when announcing this application.In the image it is possible to see a small screen terminal showing the main image of Messenger Lite, which is reminiscent of previous versions of the messaging tool Facebook All this showing photos of contacts and the different chats, as well as several tabs to move between theconversations, contacts or self user profile
According to David Marcus, this version of Messenger is focused to terminals that have low storage capacity on their internal disk, but also for those with low RAM memory , or with a low performance processor Similarly, this version will be useful for users who have networks with aReally limited bandwidth.
The application Messenger Lite is already available for the aforementioned countries, although its aspiration is to extend it in the coming months to more countries and , presumably, to the rest of the world.It is only available for terminals Android and it does it totally free
Facebook decaffeinated
This is not the first attempt by Facebook to bring its services to developing markets. And it is that they are the places where more growth can be obtained as long as it is accessible to users. With this same philosophy, Facebook launched its Lite version in June 2015 With this, users of outdated terminals and slow connections can use all the functions of Facebook in a fluid. Of course, this decaffeinated version of the social network cut back on stylistic and accessory issues such as the autoplay of videos or the automatic download of content to enjoy the highest resolution on the photos, for example. Of course, it allowed the user to use it under any circumstance and to continue accessing quality content and videos if they were clicked on.
A pared down but valid and efficient application for late terminals that is finally available worldwide through Google Play Store and free So hopefully Messenger Lite will also reach Spain in the future, although still without official confirmation.
