Twitter Lite

Twitter Lite is the latest and smallest addition to Twitter's official apps. It allows you to connect to the popular social network through an app that takes up significantly less space on your smartphone. It's specifically designed for slower devices and lagging connection speeds.

Upon opening Twitter Lite, you'll notice it weighs in at just over 0.5MB. This is a significant size reduction compared to the full-sized official Twitter client, which takes up 33MB to 35MB. That's a whopping 70 times fewer MB. This is a huge advantage for smartphones with limited storage space.

Similar to other 'Lite' versions of apps (Facebook, Skype, LINE, etc.), Twitter Lite is fully adapted to 2G and 3G networks. It also includes a data-saving function to limit the automatic download of images and videos.

Despite the optimizations and improvements, Twitter Lite provides all the features you'd expect from a Twitter app. You can tweet, read tweets from accounts you follow, send and receive Direct Messages, tweet pictures and videos, create Twitter Lists, edit your profile, and more.

In short, Twitter Lite is a great alternative to the full-fledged official Twitter app. It offers the same excellent user experience you're accustomed to, but with the added benefit of taking up much less space on your smartphone and using less data.
