In this mode, you will see a preview of images and videos before choosing which ones to fully load which according to Twitter can reduce your data usage by up to 70%.

Next up, Twitter Lite has additional features in Google Chrome and other browsers on Android devices like push notifications, offline support and more. Twitter Lite is available globally by visiting mobile.twitter.com on your smartphone or tablet. It support 42 languages including six Indic languages: Hindi, Bengali, Kannada, Tamil, Gujarati, and Marathi
