Recognizing that many around the world have constraints when it comes to their devices, connectivity, and data plans, Facebook has developed a slimmer version of Instagram called Instagram Lite. Modeled after the popular Facebook Lite, this all-new app promises to deliver most of the core Instagram experience to more people around the world.
Facebook on Wednesday said it is rolling out the Instagram Lite app in 170 countries to provide people living in rural and remote communities with a high-quality experience of the photo and video-sharing app using minimal data.The Instagram .

Facebook is today relaunching Instagram Lite, a stripped-down version of the image-sharing app designed for users in emerging markets. Developed by Facebook’s team in Tel Aviv, the birthplace of Facebook Lite and Messenger Lite, the app’s package size is just 2MB. The team said that the focus, like with the other launches, was on users whose smartphones lack storage capacity, processing power and reliable data. In order to reach that size, the app focuses on images, video and messaging, ditching other features and flourishes that fade into the background on the full-fat version of the app.
