Following in the steps of Opera, Facebook, Shazam, Skype, and others embracing Lite Apps, Twitter has launched its Twitter Lite app today. The new Twitter app is targeted at address the issues of slow/unreliable internet, expensive data tariffs, and lack of storage on mobile devices.
Key Features of Twitter Lite
Twitter Lite is a mobile web app that includes the following features:
- data saver mode for minimized data usage
