The 'Data Saver (Light Mode)' installed in Chrome for Android is a function that makes the page lighter on the Google server that is the relay destination and reduces the amount of data downloaded to the device side. Data usage was reduced by up to 60%, which was said to help save forwarding and speed up browsing.
However, this light mode will be discontinued in the 'Chrome M100' released on March 29, 2022. Chrome support manager Craig revealed in a support forum that mobile data has become cheaper in many countries in recent years, less of a concern for forwarding savings, and various improvements. It was said that the write mode will be abolished because the web page loads fast enough even without the write mode.
