Fantastic interface and great experience so far! Combines both Facebook, Messenger, & more. Able to upload pics and videos. This operates way better than Facebook Lite & Messenger Lite which I previously had. Even better than Facebook directly off the Chrome page. Have had over a month now & happy with this app. Pages move quickly & functions are there & layout is great. Has ads at bottom of page, however, doesn’t bother me. Ease, combo media access, performance, & no crashes. Great job! Good work!

Review: MOUTHSHUT

Facebook Lite is a complete package of all the features of Facebook. The lightning fast speed of browsing is speechless even you are using 2G/3G. The layout of Lite is as lit as Mark Zuckerberg. If your phone is Highly sick of ” Storage is running low” This app is especially for you. But if we are talking about its features I notice that it vary with the user. Literally, my friend’s account shows react on comments but not in my account even with the same phone. But if we are talking about 1 MB application. It is highly recommended for all. I find its quite useful for all.

Though it is not too snazzy or sleek, it definitely delivers FB site experience to users who have old device or are worried about their data cap.

Download on iTunes

Review: iTunes

I’m using on old iPhone 4s, so I may be partial to this app because it is lightweight and fast. What you shed by using this app is close to 500 megabytes of storage, 277 for the Messenger app, and around 200 for the Facebook app, which takes a load off the old A5 chipset. By no means is it perfect, and for those with faster, newer phones, 500 megs is not much. There are a few things that I’m not happy with, but I really didn’t like Messenger. Puffin FB covers the FB experience AND lets me view and send private messages all in one, small app…

Fella is the best web wrapper with lots of customization options, even when you have limited data or a slow connection.

Download on Google Play

Review: PlayStore

It’s a very small app, very customisable and fast. However, I am having issues with saving any content. Whenever I try to save something it just keeps fetching and never stops, I can’t go back from it either so I have to close the app. Would the Devs have any idea how to fix this?

Review: PlayStore

Been using this app for about a month. It started out Fantastic. It truly was “swift.” Messages were working fine. But it’s degraded in speed and function the last 2 weeks or so. Not getting message notifications, very slow to load anything. Takes quite a while after clicking a post for it to appear. Can’t respond with the emoji choices, only the “like” one. Won’t load notifs, etc. Too many problems to list. Going back to using a web browser.

7.  SlimSocial

 SlimSocial

SlimSocial apparently hints as slimming down existing Facebook to give you an app that embodies powerful simplicity. Its smallest size (100KB) strikes like a big surprise to many users. The icing on the cake is that it has no ads.

For developers, the best part about SlimSocial is its open source quality which makes it easy for contributors to go make changes to its source code. Though it may appear a little slow, users will find it amazing altogether. Developers also zealously continue to update and build new features on and off.

Review: PlayStore

I feel much safer using this on my phone than the official app. My only complaint is the inability to copy text from posts.

After yesterday’s crash for maintenance or security breach that I believe may have happened rather. I remembered this app and downloaded it.

I don’t get any notifications when I have new messages (unless you count the message # when the app is open..) no ringing or pop ups even though I have permissions/such turned on. but at least I dont have permanent # that wont go away like I did with the actual messenger app.

10. Friendly For Facebook

 Friendly For Facebook

With Friendly, you only need one app for all your Facebook, Messenger, Instagram and Twitter needs.

Download on iTunes

Review: iTunes

Third party twitter apps are everywhere; even Friendly has one mixed in. But so far this is the only third party Facebook client I’ve been able to find. And despite being unchallenged it proves to be a very good product.

Pros: Friendly takes the biggest flaws of the stock Facebook app and does away with them. The news feed can be defaulted to most recent. A night mode is optionable. Ads and suggested posts can be removed.

And Messenger is included without needing a second app. And best of all, this app does not appear to have the spyware-like qualities of the official app. And it’s also a fraction of the file size.
