Facebook’s Safety Check feature has been put into test since last year over several countries. This is FB’s part to help friends and relatives in the event of a crisis, letting each other know about their safety. Facebook has now made it available on their Lite app now. The app is lightened version of the mainstream Facebook app, which takes up less space on smartphone­s and works with 2G Internet connection­s as well. The Lite app is suitable for budget Android smartphone users, especially in developing countries such as India and Brazil. With Safety Check now available for low- end smartphone­s, users can communicat­e their wellbeing across their friends’ timeline, keeping them informed. FB that Safety Check has been activated more than 1,000 times in countries around the world and has already notified people that their families and friends are safe times.
