Truth Social App Tops Downloads on App Store Amidst User Complaints

Donald Trump’s Truth Social app received a massive response, becoming the Apple App Store’s top free app hours after its launch Monday. The app’s features are said to be similar to that of Twitter, replete with a ‘retweet’ function. Owned by Trump Media and Technology Group, the app’s launch encountered a rough start, with many disappointed users complaining that they received an error message stating, “Due to massive demand, we have placed you on our waitlist,”. An update ‘bug fixes’ was soon launched, bringing the latest version to 1.0.1. Truth Social is former President Donald Trump’s first official social media handle, his response to being banned from platforms like Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube, following the Capitol riot.
