7 Lite Android Apps Which Will Save Your Storage

There is a new trend for Lite apps for Android devices. A handful of prominent social media and communication apps are releasing the strip-down, barebone version of their now-blocked app.

These apps are ridiculously lightweight, sometimes less than 1 megabyte of weight. They are also designed to not take more bandwidth.
And because they are not packed with over-the-top features, they do not take much space and are quick to operate (especially on older or cheap devices).

1. Facebook Lite

Facebook Lite

The Facebook app is known as a resource on Android and a battery hog. The only option was to use Facebook in a mobile browser or use a third-party app like a metal. Facebook Lite is a great alternative specially designed for low-end Android phones and areas where data does not flow like Niagara Falls.

When it comes to core features, the Facebook Lite app is close to the fully-developed Facebook app (and, in some ways, better). In a way, it's a web casing, it comes with useful features. Information support, video playback, reactions support, and even messages.

2. Messenger Lite

The biggest reason for using Messenger Lite is that there is no messenger day facility or new dynamic layout. Things are simple. Simply feature a reverse-chronological list of your chats and the original message.

The app is fast to use and uses fewer data. You can still send images to chat but other features such as stickers, GIF search, and more are not available. There is no support for chat heads.

3. Skype Lite



Skype is a notorious reputation for being incredible. But Skype Lite is designed to work well on low bandwidth (2G networks) too. The app supports both voice and video calls and its weight is just 13 MB.
Currently, Skype Lite is officially available in India only.

4. Twitter Lite


Twitter Lite is a strange entry in this list. This is not a traditional app, but it's not even a mobile site. This is a new technique called PWA (Progressive Web App). Go to Mobile.twitter.com and voila, you're using the Progressive app.
This works much like a traditional app: you will get notifications, you can add it to your home screen, and even have an offline mode. But all this still works inside the browser.
. It saves user interfaces and assets, so whenever you open or refresh the page, they have to download again. In addition, if you click on your profile icon and turn on data saver mode, you will see that images are not loaded by default. You will see a blurred preview of them with the size of the image. You can then tap on the preview to load them.

Core Twitter Experience - Your timeline, tweets, mentions, and DMs are still there. You will not get features like special moments or auto-play videos here. For easy setup, try changing the mobile web page into pseudo-app using Chrome

 - Twitter.com is not Available Play Store

5. Line Lite

Like Messenger Light, Line Light is a lightweight, streamlined version of Line Messenger. If you use the Line Messenger service to stay in touch with friends and family, then you will be happy to know that you can still do all the basic things here.

Personalized chats, group chats, rich previews for media, and even stickers are all here. And thanks to the lack of bloat, the user interface is very simple and easy to navigate.

Download - Play Store (Free) Line Light

6. Opera Mini

The Opera Mini Opera is a tiny cousin of the browser. It is designed to help you navigate the Internet, with narrow bandwidth and low storage space usage.
You will get a plethora of features designed specifically to help you deal with your data crunch, like downloading the video to play offline (except YouTube). You can also save the entire web page for offline use.

Go to the built-in data saver, and you can fix data-saving features and limitations such as disabling high-quality images, optimizing the video, and more.

You will also find a smart download manager here. This allows you to prevent large files from being downloaded on Wi-Fi networks.

Download - Opera Mini (free) from Play Store

7. Shazam Lite

Shazam Lite: Discover Music

Shazam light weighs less than 1 MB and you want to do one thing. This eliminates the blurring of recommendations, popups, and integration. Just open the app, tap on the title and identify the song.

Also, there is a useful offline mode in the app. In this way, you can scan for a song, even if you do not have an internet connection, and identify when you are connected to a network.

Download - Play Store (Free) Shazam Lite
