Facebook today said it will allow more people to download and use the Facebook Lite application. Facebook Lite, which has been available since 2015, is a stripped-down version of the social networking app meant for regions with slow or poor network connectivity. Facebook is expanding the app's availability beyond the initial list of 100 countries to include nations with developed networks such as the U.S., Canada, Australia, the U.K., France, Germany, Ireland, and New Zealand. "We’ve seen that even in some developed markets people can have lower connectivity, so we want to make sure everyone has the option to use this app if they want," said the company. Facebook Lite will reach the new markets beginning March 16. Earlier this month Facebook brought Facebook Messenger Lite to more countries, including the U.S.
