TL;DR The Trump administration is launching an official White House app for Android, but it’s essentially a wrapper for the existing government website.

You can download the app on iOS or Android today, but be warned, it’s already a bit buggy.
It’s 2026, and practically everything has an app. If you want to order food, pay for parking, or manage a bank account, there’s an app for that. Now, you can add The White House to that list, because the Trump administration just rolled out an official app on the App Store and Google Play Store. The White House announced the move in a press release Friday, March 27, saying that the app “offers Americans a direct line to the White House.”
The first version of The White House app carries version number 47.0.1, a clear nod to President Donald Trump being the 47th president of the United States. The app also has a “Text President Trump” feature that, when pressed, creates a message with “Greatest President Ever!” in the compose field. That sums up the app’s content — The White House app homepage displays a photo of President Trump with a tagline of “America Is Back.”
