[14 June 2017, Makati City] More Filipinos will
now have access to up-to-date information as PLDT
wireless subsidiary Smart Communications partners with
Twitter to bring the Twitter Lite experience to mobile
users across the country.
Twitter has launched a data-friendly version of its
service called Twitter Lite, which will enhance Filipino
users’ mobile-first experience with fast and real-time
information on what’s happening around the world and
what people are talking about.
Twitter Lite users will still get to enjoy the key features
of Twitter on mobile web, without consuming too much
data. To activate Twitter Lite, users must log on to
mobile.twitter.com on their phone browser, click on their
user photo to go to settings, and activate the Data Saver
mode. On the Twitter Lite timeline, users will see a
preview of images and videos, before choosing which
ones to fully load.
Optimal use via TNT, Opera Mini
To maximize the Twitter Lite experience, TNT, Smart’s
value brand, is offering three-day access to Twitter,
whether via Twitter app or mobile web browser, for just
P10. To avail of this service, TNT subscribers may text
TWITTER10 to 4545.

senior manager for digital platforms and product
development Paul Pajo and vice president for digital
products and partnerships Harvey Libarnes during the
launch of Twitter Lite in the country in partnership with
Philippine telecommunication providers.
Smart Prepaid users may also avail of All Out Surf 30,
which offers 300 MB open access that can be used for
Twitter for two days, apart from unlimited texts to all
networks and 30-minute calls to Smart, TNT, and Sun.
Smart Prepaid subscribers may text ALLOUT30 to 9999 to
get this data package.
Using Opera Mini further amplifies Smart, Sun and TNT
users’ Twitter Lite experience, as the browser
compresses data and loads faster. The Twitter Lite
option is set on the speed dial of Opera Mini upon
installation, giving Smart, Sun and TNT subscribers easy
access to the latest news and information on their
favorite entertainment and sports celebrities.
Beneficial partnership
“We are happy to partner with Twitter to offer the Twitter
Lite experience to our more than 63 million subscribers
across the Philippines,” said Harvey Libarnes, vice
president for digital products and partnership at Smart.
“This partnership will benefit our subscribers, especially
those who have limited connectivity, because they will
get to fully enjoy the mobile web features of Twitter
while at the same time have access to the latest
information anytime and anywhere in the country,”
Libarnes added.
“Entertainment is one of the most talked about topics in
the Philippines on Twitter. For example, we saw over 4.6
million tweets during AlDub’s first-ever teleserye
Destined to be Yours’ pilot episode,” said Dwi
Adriansah, head of business development for Twitter
Southeast Asia and Australia. “We are excited to partner
with two of the largest telcos in the country to bring
data-friendly, real-time updates from what’s happening
with love couples like AlDub, KathNiel, and JaDine, to
the latest teleseryes, as shared experiences to more
Filipinos across the nation with Twitter Lite.”
With more than 310 million active users worldwide,
Twitter has become a vital platform for social media-
savvy Filipinos to stay updated on events and
personalities in and out of the country.#
