Facebook has just announced that Instagram Lite is now officially available in 170 countries, but there are still many people who do not yet have access to this much stricter, 2 MB small Instagram experience. This applies to countries such as the US, the UK and many more in Europe. But luckily there is now a simple way to get hold of it via our sister website APK Mirror.
Most Android apps you want on your phone are available in the Play Store, but sometimes developers decide to set up space restrictions on certain apps. This may be because companies do not do business in specific countries, or because some apps are only relevant to locals, but in the case of Instagram Lite, we assume that Facebook wants to bring it to those who can benefit most from it first. . that, living in countries with bad and poor internet.
Unlike the 30MB Instagram-sized app, the Lite version weighs only 2MB on your phone and does not use as much battery and bandwidth, making it ideal if you live in a place with spotty internet or if you just want to store data on your mobile connection.
To get hold of Instagram Lite now, go to the download page at APK Mirror, select the latest version of the app and download the one that fits your phone. Your device will then ask you to allow installations from unknown sources, and once enabled, you can simply install the app. If you are unsure about the process or if something is not working, we have a step-by-step guide with a video in our dedicated guide.
The APK we offer for download was signed by Facebook. Its cryptographic signature guarantees that the file is safe to install and that it has not been tampered with in any way. Instead of waiting for Facebook to send the app to other regions, which can take weeks or months, you can simply download and install it now. Once the app is available in your Play Store, you will even receive automated software updates.
