Though he has his own platform dubbed X, it requires a lot of time, money, and effort to create something identical to Twitter and the likes. In this regard, Donald Trump is no exception. He launched the Twitter-like social media app Truth Social for iOS a few months ago. Today, Axios reported that itās finally available for Android as well.

Whatās interesting, Truth Social became available in Appleās App Store in February this year. But there has been no option for Android users.
