casual users

Light, infrequent participants

Casual users engage with something occasionally or superficially, without deep commitment or expertise.

The term appears most often in technology contexts, distinguishing people who use software or services lightly from power users or professionals: The app is intuitive enough for casual users.

A casual user might check social media once a day rather than constantly, or play video games for fun without mastering them.
