“Lite” apps have been available for years now, but they took off with Android Go — an initiative to make cheaper, low-end phones for people in low-income countries. Part of the initiative was the development of lightweight apps that work well on phones with low RAM and low CPU power. It could’ve been a cut-and-dry benefit for everybody with an Android phone. Unfortunately, developers decided to be evasive about it.
Nowadays, many lite apps are only available in select countries or regions. More only work on midrange or low-end devices. There isn’t a lot of rhyme or reason to it, especially when the option to let everyone use an app is as simple as ticking a few boxes on the Google Play developer dashboard. It’s not the hottest or most controversial hot take, but lite apps are good, and they should be available to everyone.
