If you enjoy using Facebook on your smartphone but the social media app takes a toll on your smartphone’s processor and battery power, then you might want to check out Facebook Lite. As the app’s name implies, this is a lightweight version of Facebook and its software has been optimized to lower the overall amount of processing power that it needs in order to run without any issues. Not just that, but Facebook Lite is also known for not using as much mobile data as the original version of the app does.
Full-Fledged Developer Support
Even though Facebook Lite is a lightweight app, it still benefits from full-fledged developer support. Therefore, Facebook Lite receives a constant stream of updates that improve its overall performances by adding software tweaks and bug fixes. In fact, a brand-new update has just arrived.
Facebook Lite 145.0.0.8.111 Beta Update
The latest update for Facebook Lite sports the 145.0.0.8.111 beta version number and it is being rolled out via official OTA (over the air) channels right now. However, the update is not being rolled out to all Facebook Lite users and instead, the only ones who can get their hands on all the software tweaks that the new update brings are Facebook Lite users who are enrolled in the beta program.
The Beta Program
For those who are unfamiliar with the beta program, this is a special program of Facebook Lite where users can enroll in order to download the latest updates for the social media app. The cool thing about the beta program is that obviously, users who are enrolled in it will always be the first ones to get access to all the latest features. However, there is a downside to this. Facebook Lite beta users might stumble upon bugs and glitches.
