Instagram Lite enables all smartphones to access the social media platform. As a Lite version, minimum hardware specifications for running the app are reduced. An entry level smartphone may struggle to run Instagram proper. That issue won't come up with the Lite version, though. It's designed from the ground up to provide the standard Instagram experience with minor sacrifices. Does the app accomplishes its goals for most users?
