What is Facebook Free Mode?
The Facebook Free Mode is an amazing internet bundle offered by most ISPs in the world. This feature is ubiquitous among network operators in third-world countries where internet bundles are relatively expensive. The offer makes it possible to communicate with friends and family on Facebook for free.
Though the Facebook data-friendly mode is a cool offer to browse for free, most people are always faced with the dilemma of how to remove to turn off the Facebook free mode. The Facebook free data mode dubbed 'Free Basics' is popular amongst users of Facebook lite.
Often time to time, I have been caught up in a situation that would demand access to one of the world’s largest social networks – Facebook, to check on the latest feeds from friends, check notifications, and also just so I could get a grasp of what is happening across the world.
However, due to the Facebook free mode's limitations, I end up looking for an easy way to disable it or remove the option. This simple yet comprehensive guide seeks to address this problem.
What does the limited Facebook mode mean?
Of course, there is a big difference in what you will be getting with your network provider's free version of Facebook mode compared to when you pay for data bundles.
The main catch here is that you can neither see photos (pictures) nor watch videos. This is usually a major disadvantage for many.
