However, the way in which this app handles these functions is different. You can still message, call, and video chat with Messenger Lite-these are core features of most messaging apps. This also means that Messenger Lite has a much simpler UI than the full version. For example, there’s no group calling and no animation on stickers received. With Messenger Lite, the emphasis is on messaging and calling, so you don’t get the full raft of features. Messenger Lite is an official client developed by Facebook that leaves out many of Messenger’s functions to save data and processing power. It's initially available to download in Kenya, Tunisia, Malaysia, Sri Lanka, and Venezuela, with other countries added in the coming months.What’s the difference between Messenger and Messenger Lite? And the app itself comes it at under 10MB. Messenger Lite is designed to be "lightweight, fast, and simple". It will be the extraneous features such as Stories and Chatbots that get axed. Messenger Lite "offers the core features of Messenger" such as "messaging, sending and receiving photos and links, and receiving stickers". Messenger Lite is therefore aimed at markets with "slower than average internet speeds and a prevalence of basic Android smartphones". He suggests that Messenger Lite is designed to further the social network's goal to "empower people all over the world to stay connected".
Tom Mulcahy, an engineer at Facebook, explains everything in a post on the Facebook Newsroom. There are plenty of countries where the fully fledged Facebook Messenger is too large, resource-hungry, or reliant on a good internet connection to perform.
