Much like Truth Social's mobile iOS app, the web app also looks and acts much like a Twitter clone.
Here's what the Truth Social web app feed looks like when a user is logged in. Credit: Mashable Screenshot Truth Social was previously only available to users on Apple iOS devices, such as the iPhone. Yes, the iPhone has a huge smartphone market share. However, roughly half of mobile users have a non-iOS device. Now, basically anyone with internet access can sign up and create an account on Donald Trump's social media platform.
However, Android users are still waiting for a Truth Social app specifically for their device. According to Rolling Stone, this has irked the former president. Reports say that Trump has been privately complaining that Google was trying to "fuck" him.
According to Rolling Stones'source, however, the truthis that Truth Social hasn't even submitted an Android app to the Google Play store yet.
Still, though, the launch of a web app is significant. Truth Social profiles and posts will now be completely shareable on other platforms. Using the iPhone app, if you want to share a Truth Social post on another platform, you have to take a screenshot. Now, Truth Social users will be able to post links directly to any account or post. In turn, non-Truth Social users will have direct access to sign up and engage with content on the site. (Note: Internal Truth Social links currently require users to login to their account in order to see the content.)

Launched in February, Truth Social struggled during the first few months. Downloads plummetedafter the initial rush to download due to a long waitlist of users wanting to sign up. However, in recent weeks, Trump finally started postingon his own platform, which has helped give the conservative social network another bounce.
Truth Social announced a public beta of the web app just last week. According to a press releasefrom Wednesday, the initial web app rollout was scheduled for some time over the next week or two. However, the social network delivered early when it comes to the web app at least.
No word yet on when Truth Social will submit an Android app so Trump can stop complaining about Google.
