Internet is an application that was released in March, 2018, it is launched as the biggest selling that it is lightweight anyway.


It seems that news is always displayed on the home screen of the application. In addition, tab display is supported, and thumbnail images are displayed on each tab, making it easier to find the desired tab.


In addition to being set to display the full screen screen automatically, privacy is also taken into consideration by installing "private mode" which shuts out user's tracking by the website.


The description of the Google Play store also stated "It's lightweight compared to other companies" about the strength of the Internet, as well as features such as private mode support and news distribution function are listed.


The release date of the application is March 20, 2018. The actual file size is 2.4 MB, which seems to be slightly larger than the original catch phrase "2 MB or less". Although it is possible to use it on Android 5.0 or higher terminal, the installation number at the time of article creation is "100+", it seems that 1000 installation has not reached yet.


In the world of lightweight mobile applications, applications such as Google's "Gmail Go" and "YouTube Go", Facebook's "Facebook Lite" and "Messenger Lite" are appearing. If you can not miss this trend, Amazon also seems to aim to show its presence in the Indian market expected to develop in the future by releasing Internet applications.
