The new version of Instagram for mobile phones without space

nstagram recently announced having crossed the barrier of one billion active users worldwide and what emerges from his latest moves, it is that the company is far from being satisfied

Having introduced a new service (IGTV), having introduced several novelties for their stories and just when they finished releasing the # Option group video calls, Instagram has just released a version of the application for mobile phones with more basic features.

The lite version of Instagram, Instagram Lite, was released last weekend in silence. Even Facebook has not yet made any official statement, but in the end, it's a move that the sector was already waiting for, having Messenger Lite and Facebook Lite .

While the native application of Instagram comes to weigh a few tens of megabytes, the Lite version is far from reaching a single mega-weight. That's why Instagram Lite is the best choice for modest phones that do not have enough disk storage space.

The new version of Instagram is an application with a little more limited functionality, but with the essential features that allow us to continue to experiment the social network in the most complete way. For example, it allows you to view publications, share tastes and even create stories.

The differences of Instagram Lite are not very noticeable, but they are few in number. For example, items that can be created do not include advanced features such as the ability to use stickers and create polls or dynamic questions. In addition, the official email service, Instagram Direct is not integrated in the same application, so no personal messages or video calls.

The appearance and operation of the new application are virtually the same as the clbadic version. It is also found in the application store of Google (for the moment in some countries), although now with a logo with a white background and fewer features.

On the technical side, some characteristics differ. For example, version Lite is not installed in native mode, but rather a progressive web application, an application that runs with resources found in a browser and that does not require prior installation. In fact, it can even be installed from the same browser, adding the link "to the home screen" .

The benefits of a progressive web application are multiple: less busy disk space, how we commented; less data usage and higher speed of loading and navigation. All, benefits that will help Instagram to enter many markets where data, memory RAM and gigabytes of space tend to be scarce, but the number of # 39, potential users exponential increases.
