Donald Trump's new social media platform, Truth Social, launched on Apple's App Store early Monday, setting up a return to social media for the former president who was banned from all mainstream online platforms last year after being accused of inciting his supporters to engage.
On Sunday night, Truth Social was launched on the Apple App Store.
The first public release of Truth Social went live on the iPhone App Store late Sunday night, describing itself as a social media platform that is free from political discrimination.
The people who downloaded the app complained that they were getting error messages when they tried to create their accounts.
Forbes was able to confirm that several other users received a message that their account was successfully created, but they have been placed on a wait list due to massive demand.
The design of Truth Social is based on the images of its user interface that is displayed on the App Store.
It's not clear if the issues encountered by early users of the app have anything to do with the delay in the launch of the platform. The New York Times reported last week that a full roll out of the platform may be pushed back to March as the Securities and Exchange Commission is investigating the special purpose acquisition company that is set to merge with Truth Social.
