Facebook is the world’s largest social media platform and there is no doubt about that. Everyone owns a Facebook page starting with your high school friends and ending with your parents. On the downside of things, Facebook does have a bad reputation for requiring powerful hardware specs and lots of mobile data in order to offer a premium user experience. The problem here is that not everyone can afford to spend more than $1,000 on one of Apple’s or Samsung’s latest smartphones. Luckily, there is a perfect alternative to Facebook.
Introducing: Facebook Lite
For the uninitiated, Facebook Lite is a lightweight version of Facebook, but this doesn’t mean that the lightweight app doesn’t offer a premium user experience. The cool thing about Facebook Lite is that even though it requires less internal storage space and mobile data in order to run without any issues, it delivers the same plethora of features as the original app does. To make things even better, Facebook Lite also benefits from full fledged developer support which means that the lightweight app is updated on a regular basis.
Facebook Lite 146.0.0.5.102 Beta Update
We have some great news to share with Facebook Lite fans today! The app has recently received a new update which changes its version number to 146.0.0.5.102 beta. The update is being rolled out right now, but there’s a catch! The update is available only to beta users and therefore, all Facebook Lite fans who want to access the new update are required to enroll in the beta program.
On the other hand, we have to mention that there is an alternative way of downloading the new update and it doesn’t require users to enroll in the beta program. The alternative way is to download the new update in the form of APK (Android Package Kit) and then manually install it.
