[Software] This is how you see how "bloated" the apps on your phone are: how to make Instagram fit in 2MB

[Angrry.exe™]

Instagram, like Facebook, are applications that exclusively serve you content from the internet. However, they ended up taking up massive amounts of space, so far.

 

For those times when you have a problem with free space, there is the newest version of Instagram Lite. It takes up only 2MB of space, is available on Android and, from the start, you can download it from 170 countries on the world map. If you want to install it now, you can use this link.

 

 

Predictably, the app is as similar as possible to the traditional Instagram, although it has removed several features from the equation that you might consider unnecessary. This is the brainchild of the Facebook developer team located in Tel Aviv, the same one that created Facebook Lite and Messenger Lite in the past.

 

The new app gives you access to exactly the same content as the standard version, when it comes to the posts of those you follow, but in a package for terminals with limited space, less performance and without a very fast Internet connection.

 

Instagram Lite, in its 2MB iteration, focuses on facilitating access to photos, videos and messages, both. You can also post with it or view Stories, but it's clear that you won't have access to the same options you'd normally use year after year. Among the important missing features are Instagram Live and Shopping. Additionally, much of the processing effort behind in-app transitions is done on Instagram's server, due to the performance handicap of some cheap Android terminals.
