In 2016, Facebook Lite was released in countries including Nigeria, Nepal, Bangladesh and other countries.

Because of this, users can still use the Lite version on phones with weak hardware or unstable internet connections. However, it doesn’t have the same level of functionality as Facebook. The Lite version of Facebook is an app that functions similarly to the text messaging, newsfeeds, commenting and other features of the social media platform. In some countries and regions where reliable internet access and modern smartphones are limited, Lite is the only way to connect with others. This includes basic social interaction features like chatting and photos. To reach as many people as possible, Facebook Lite provides the bare minimum functionality anyone needs. Even Android devices with weak configurations were affected Facebook servers would become overloaded. Since this update required a lot of hard drive space, it was difficult for some people to download it. The site continually adds new versions of the site with additional features in order to provide the best experience to its users. Currently, 2.5 billion people use the Facebook social network.
