Amazon has now announced a new Kindle application, which is a ‘lite’ version of their existing app. This application is smaller in size and stripped down in terms of features, but it is good for users who do not have access to high speed data as well as enough space on their phone. Kindle Lite is a 2 MB application which can run smoothly in 2G networks too!

This Kindle Lite Android app has been designed keeping in mind the needs of Indian smartphone users and it is not likely that the app will be released in other geographies.

Of late, ‘Lite’ apps have become quite the trend! There are many developers who have one primary app which is bloated with a number of features and functions, along with a ‘lite’ app which is a stripped down version of the same. The Kindle Lite app is still in beta – but it is likely to hit the Google Play Store soon.
