About this app

Keeping up with friends is faster and easier than ever with the Facebook Lite app! Use Facebook Lite as a friends app to connect and keep up with your social network. The Facebook Lite app is small, allowing you to save space on your phone and use Facebook in 2G conditions. Many of the classic features of Facebook are available on the app, such as sharing to a Timeline, liking photos, searching for people, and editing your profile and groups. Specific features include:

• Find friends and family
• Post status updates & use Facebook emoji to help relay what’s going on in your world
• Share photos and your favorite memes
• Get notified when friends like and comment on your posts
• Find local social events, RSVP, and make plans to meet up with friends
• Interact with your friends by adding your own comments or reactions to their Facebook posts
• Save photos by adding them to photo albums
• Follow people to get their latest news
• Look up local businesses to see reviews, operation hours, and pictures
• Buy and sell locally on Facebook Marketplace

The Facebook app does more than help you stay connected with your friends and interests. It's also your personal organizer for storing, saving and sharing photos. It's easy to share photos straight from your Android camera, and you have full control over your photos and privacy settings. You can choose when to keep individual photos private or even set up a secret photo album to control who sees it.

Facebook Lite also helps you keep up with the latest news and current events around the world. Subscribe to your favorite celebrities, brands, websites, artists, or sports teams to follow their News Feeds from the convenience of your Facebook Lite app!

Ratings and reviews

Messenger lite gets scrapped and I'll be forced to use this instead (or the bloated, slow, ad-filled junk that is the full messenger app). It'd be fine if only I could use it in landscape mode when messaging. Also someone mentioned the blackout issue when scrolling down on a profile. Moreover, the bottom of the screen has a white stripe. It's been there for years, and only in this app.

The app used to work ok about a few months ago. It's a good idea that is either abandoned or very poorly executed. The latest glitch is that I can't edit my posts anymore and smilies show as a question marks. I'm forced now to go back to the full version of Facebook App that I dislike even more, but at least I can perform basic functions in the full version. Until this app is fixed it's not worth it, despite it's very small imprint on your phone memory. Uninstalling mine.

Almost seems abandoned. It's still able to scroll the main feed, but no longer works properly for many other parts of the, uh, "Facebook experience" - for instance, if I tap a reel it'll just flash through all the reels in the list and stop on the last one - anything before that can't be watched. If your device is too low-end for the full version you'll probably be better served by a third-party app.
