2. Use Twitter Lite
If you are using Twitter on a year-old phone, with not so impressive specs. Then I’ll recommend you to use the Twitter Lite app. This app is just 1.1MB in size and comes with more or fewer features like Messages, Explore, and even Dark Mode (except the recently introduced Fleets). The Lite app is optimized for 2G and 3G network, it also comes with Data Saver as well. Download Twitter Lite

If you don’t want to install a dedicated Twitter App, but still want to use Twitter, that too without depleting your Mobile Data (or you are running on really slow speeds). Then you can log in to your Twitter Account, on some Data-Efficient Browsers like Opera Mini, which comes with a built-in Data Saver. Or you can also enable Lite Mode on Google Chrome.
