Messenger Lite is an official client developed by Facebook for its popular instant messaging service. The biggest attraction is that this client takes up much less space than the standard version, occupying just under 10 megabytes. This makes it more lightweight, which means it can work smoothly on older devices running older versions of Android.

The application is official, so it has practically all the functions of the original chat service, allowing you to talk to your friends individually or in a group by sending and receiving text messages, images, videos, and stickers.

 

The difference between this client and the unofficial ones you can find online is that Messenger Lite can work in the background and send notifications of your friends' messages, such as activating vibrations or lighting up the device's screen when there is activity. In practical terms, it has all the same features as the original client without taking up as much space and consuming as many resources, which is what Facebook applications are generally known for.

 

Messenger Lite is a fantastic alternative to the official Facebook client. It is especially useful in countries where wireless connections struggle with the large amount of data required to run the official client. It is also compatible with a large number of devices and older versions of Android (since 2.3 Gingerbread), although of course, you can use it no matter what your situation is.
