Trump Media & Technology Group (Nasdaq: DJT) (“TMTG”), the operator of the social media platform Truth Social, has announced the successful launch of linear TV streaming on Android devices.
Android users can now enjoy TV streaming on the Truth Social app without needing to update their apps. By clicking on a Truth+ streaming icon shaped like a TV, users can view streaming content either as stand-alone channels or in a separate picture-in-picture (“PiP”) window while continuing to scroll through the platform.

This launch, powered by TMTG’s new custom-built content delivery network (“CDN”), follows the recent introduction of TV streaming on the Web version of Truth Social, truthsocial.com.
“Our rollout of TV streaming is continuing apace,” said TMTG CEO Devin Nunes. “The addition of streaming to Android devices is another step toward our goal of creating an uncancellable home for free speech and family-friendly TV content.”
The streaming service on Android devices is part of TMTG’s phased rollout of its streaming platform, Truth+. The Company plans to introduce TV streaming on the iOS version of Truth Social next, which will require an app update.
In subsequent phases, TMTG will introduce streaming apps integrated with the Truth Social platform, featuring cutting-edge capabilities such as an interactive 14-day electronic guide, instant catch-up TV on any show broadcast in the previous 7 days, network DVR, video on demand, subscription video on demand, a marketplace, and more.

TMTG also plans to launch apps for in-home TV sets and introduce new advertising capabilities.
As the rollout continues, TMTG will expand its streaming options to include news, Christian content, and family-friendly programming. The Company will continue to stress and beta test the streaming technology, collect user feedback, and announce the completion of testing and rollout.
As part of its strategy, TMTG is working toward closing a previously announced perpetual licensing deal for CDN technology.
TMTG’s ultra-fast streaming technology will be powered through specially designed infrastructure with its own servers, routers, and software stack, giving TMTG full control over its tech delivery stack for streaming across a private network CDN, aligning with the goal of making the service uncancellable by Big Tech.
