IMPORTANT NOTICE: After 7 years of service, Messenger Lite was canceled in 2023. Users were invited to switch to Messenger.

Communicating with others is something important, transmitting something you are thinking through messages or calls and even emoji has become something transcendental. For many people, it is necessary to have instant messaging apps on their cell phone, but we must admit that many times they take up too much storage. Even communicating day to day becomes interrupted by this kind of problem.

That's why Messenger Lite, comes to save your cell phone storage. It is a reduced version of the well-known Facebook Messenger app. Where you will have almost the same functions but without taking up so much space. It is an excellent option for people who are looking for a fast messaging tool that does not require much on the mobile device.

The app can be found in the Play Store on Android. You can search for it, and you will find it, but it is not currently available for iOS if you have Apple. But the good news is that it is free and without any complications. Once installed, you must log in with Facebook and if you do not have one, you must select “create new account”. Grant the necessary permissions and you can start sending messages.
