In 2009, Facebook Touch came into existence to help people with touch screen devices by offering a simplified version of the website.

Facebook wanted to serve all kinds of people in its user base. That could be the reason, those who were new to touch screen devices and not comfortable using them, Facebook presented them with a more user friendly version of their platform.

This is what one of the FB Touch users has to say about their kindness:
| Anonymous Facebook Touch UserFacebook Touch is not much different from the app and is almost similar to the website in terms of its appearance. The main advantage I’ve experienced is that it’s browser-based, so it makes FB Touch a bit faster. However, I’m not so happy with the navigation. The interface I felt is a bit cramped, blurry and indirect. Lastly, the menu does not stay intact when you scroll down your feed or settings. If I have to pick one of Facebook Touch or the dedicated mobile app, I’ll pick the latter any day for its cleaner and better user experience. |
No mobile user wants any app to consume a lot of battery or space on their device. So if you have a lot of apps on your device that are consuming a lot of space and battery and if they cannot be uninstalled then get rid of the dedicated FB app and contact ‘Facebook Touch’.
Oh really! Facebook Touch is worth it as it ensures lower power consumption; Without a doubt, good news for users of touch screens. Also, the differences between the mobile app and the touch version are too small to notice; therefore one point for FB Touch.
