How to Get Verified on Truth Social

Social media has now been one of the easiest and most trustable platforms, and the features get enhanced. Donald Trump introduced Truth Social after getting banned from almost all social media, including Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube. Now, this application is available for iOS and was developed with the hope that the account verification feature will improve the trust of fellow users. It would help the users to have a healthier conversation.

Though this application was launched very recently, the users experienced a lot of errors or glitches due to heavy site reach outs. As this application is quite similar to Twitter, the process would be similar to Twitter’s verification process.
