Upon opening the app, users were greeted with a short video featuring snippets of Trump at work. From there, technical difficulties took over.

“Connection issue; Unable to load content right now; Try again,” read a message on screen.

The app includes sections labeled “news,” “live,” “social,” and “gallery” — all of which were empty at launch on Friday morning.

Trump, a habitual social media user, has increased the White House’s social media presence, adding an official TikTok account.
