Ran Makavy, Growth Manager for Facebook announced yesterday that there are now more than 100 million people using Facebook For Every Phone each month.
“Facebook for Every Phone” is a fast and easy-to-use native app that works on more than 3,000 different types of feature phones from almost every handset manufacturer that exists today. These devices can cost as little as 20 US dollars.
The app is a comprehensive Facebook experience and feels more like a smartphone app. It includes Facebook’s most popular features, such as News Feed, Messenger and Photos, and provides a complete experience for first-time users, including the ability to create a new account and find friends.
This experience is optimized to use less data than other Java apps and mobile sites, making it more affordable to try and use.
