Recently open sourced one of my old projects “FaceLyt”. It was a webview based client app for facebook and came with key features like:

  1. Theme support
  2. Chat head support
  3. Night Mode
  4. Data Saver mode
  5. Hotlinks
  6. Long press images or posts to share
  7. All this in ~800kb of app size

The app had 1,00,000+ users while it was there on the play store. It was taken down few years back by Google because apparently according to them the “capital F” in FaceLyt resembled Facebook’s logo and Facebook wasn’t happy with it.

Nevertheless here’s the Github link & the APK link for those interested in seeing the app/source code. Open to any sort of recommendations. :)
