Facebook has launched Facebook Lite -- a bare-bones version of the original app meant for Android users with slower Internet connections. The platform had previously been tested in parts of Africa and Asia. According to research gathered by eMarketer, more than 1 billion Facebook users will access the platform each month from their mobile phones this year, increasing 16 percent from 2014. By 2019, nearly 90 percent of all Facebook users will regularly access the platform via mobile.
