If you cannot download from the Canadian App Store, that would mean it is not available through that store. It is up to the app developer which store it is available in. Speak to the developer if you have questions.

I believe it's only available in the US.

You want to be able to download it. Sadly, we don't always get what we want.

- None of the above was accurate when the app became available for me at least. "Junk app"? Is this what the overlords have concluded? I downloaded it onto an iPhone and an iPad within three hours of it becoming available. It simply would not allow for being downloaded to an M1 Macbook; it appears to have been in an undisclosed beta test condition by some information source(s). Same source(s) say testing is now complete. There was also a link in iPadian, for which I paid USD25 in order to run it on my Mac that way; the iPadian link disappeared early on, leaving me with a non-refundable waste of an app (my conclusion). The Apple Store link has apparently disappeared as well. I cannot in a sane state of mind believe it is unintentional; the very reason for TruthSocial's existence. I did not grow up in a communist/marxist land and so am not ok with being restricted in this manner, especially by an NGO like Apple, although I admit it is unclear where the blockage comes from: Apple, or the developer. The support email seems to be support at truthsocial.com (connect to mx3.truthsocial.com succeeded).

Per chance are you using a VPN, on either device, to access the Apple App Store in another country? I'm not familiar with this app, but it could be restricted in some countries. Apple doesn't decide that, but will adhere to restriction requests from countries that they do business in. AFAIK, I have not seen any "official" list that defines what apps are available in what countries. Sorry!

It is not that is not downloadable, I cannot find it at all in the Apple Store; either in my US or Canada phone. Feel like I am being forbidden by apple from seeing it at all. I wanted to download it day one. Can someone from Apple help me find it in the store.

If I type in "truth", it's the first thing that pops up. To the best of my knowledge, it's only available in the U.S. One thing you might try is to go to Settings>General>Language & Region>Region and, no matter what it says, re-select your region as the U.S.
Apple is not preventing anyone in the U.S. from accessing it.

KMDRStreams, it is probably just an inadvertent typo on your part - but you’ll want to search the App Store, not the Apple Store.
If you have an iPhone hooked up to the US App Store, it will be there.

It is up to the developers of Truth Social to move the app from beta to regular release. Apple has nothing to do with that. And, an app doesn't have to be downloaded from the App Store to run on your Mac. You can download apps from other websites.

It was I who described it as junk simply because of the terrible start up problems that the app developers have failed to deal with.
I made no judgement about the potential users and Apple is not responsible for developers failures.
And we are not Apple.

The image indicates that this app in only available via the Apple App Store app on this iPhone. Did you not try downloading/installing it from there? ... and if so, did you get any error messages?
