Google Inc.’s According to a corporate representative on Wednesday, Google has cleared former US President Donald Trump’s social networking app Truth Social for distribution in the Google Play Store. According to Google, Trump Media & Technology Group, which runs Trump’s social media app, will soon make the app accessible through the Play Store.

Trump’s Truth Social app is approved after a long wait
According to a Google representative in August, the Play Store has not previously offered Truth Social because of insufficient content control. Truth Social made its American debut in the Apple App Store in February. Google has voiced concerns to Trump’s social media app over infringements of its Play Store regulations, which forbid materials that encourage violence and make physical threats. Most smartphone users lack a simple option to download Truth Social outside the Google and Apple app stores.
The primary resource for Android app downloads in the US is Google’s Play Store. Android users may download programs straight from websites or through competing app stores, albeit the latter sometimes necessitates additional procedures and security approvals. Even after Google barred Trump’s social media app from the Play Store, it was still accessible through those channels. About 40% of American consumers use Android smartphones.
Following the Jan. 6, 2021, U.S. Capitol riots, when Trump was accused of posting comments encouraging violence, Twitter Inc, Facebook, and Alphabet Inc’s YouTube banned him. It took more than a year for Trump’s social media app to reinstate his social media presence.
TMTG has promised to provide an “engaging and censorship-free experience” on Trump’s social media app in an effort to win over a base that believes its opinions on contentious issues like the results of the 2020 presidential election have been erased from popular internet platforms.
