Truth Social, a new social media platform in the United States, topped the Apple App Store in terms of downloads after its launch

According to foreign media reports, former US President Donald Trump's social media app Truth Social was launched on Monday . Currently, the app can only be downloaded from the Apple App Store to some pre-order users.

 

Within hours of its launch on Monday morning, Truth Social became the most popular free app in the U.S. , surpassing TikTok, YouTube, Instagram and Facebook , according to Apple's rankings .

 

But the program encountered technical glitches soon after its launch, with reports that users were either added to a waiting list or had trouble logging in. In response, Truth Social said they would continue to expand capacity to ensure that more users were included.

 

Trump hopes Truth Social will attract the millions of people who follow him on Twitter as he hints at a third run for president . A company that plans to buy Truth Social's parent company, Trump Media and Technology Group, has seen its stock price soar in recent months, the report said .

 

The app is understood to have been tested before its launch on Monday and Trump Media CEO Devin Nunes , a former Republican congressman, said it should be fully operational by the end of March .

 

After the Capitol riots on January 6 last year , then-US President Trump's social media accounts were shut down, including Twitter, Facebook and YouTube , because critics accused him of inciting the riots!


Before Twitter permanently banned him last year, Trump had tweeted nearly 60,000 times and attracted nearly 90 million followers. His Truth Social account had 12,000 followers on Monday , data showed .

 

"Our main goal here is to give people their voice back , " Nunes said on Fox News on Sunday, adding that the app offers "the opposite of some Silicon Valley tech geek telling people what they think and deciding who can or can't be on the platform."

 

Judging from the software interface posted by users, Truth Social's user interface style is similar to Twitter , with four major functions: information flow, search, private messaging and news.
