A new social media app appealing to those on the right-wing has launched, but only in the U.S., and Mophie has a new, single charging solution for those traveling with multiple Apple devices.

Right-wing social app, Truth Social, only available in the U.S.

Newly launched this week is a new social app, Truth Social, which describes itself as “America’s ‘Big Tent’ social media platform that encourages an open, free, and honest global conversation without discriminating against political ideology.”

If you were hoping to join the ranks of the “Truth Sayers,” you’ll need to have an App Store account in the U.S. But maybe that’s okay, because if the information provided in the website’s Help center is any indication, the people being targeted by Truth Social aren’t exactly experienced with web 2.0.

On useful tip is, “What’s a Truth?” Answer: “A Truth is a message posted to TRUTH Social. Share your thoughts, photos, videos, memes, or links. You’ll quickly get the hang of it!”

Former U.S. member of congress Devin Nunes, who stepped down from politics to become CEO of the Trump Media & Technology Group, is leading this initiative.

Whether Truth Social does any better than Parler or Gettr, both of which tried to appeal to Trump and Trump supporters, with middling success, remains to be seen.

The New York Post reported that Donald Trump posted a message to the platform.

But that message didn’t become popular until Donald Jr. shared a screenshot of it on . . . Twitter.

Get ready to travel again with new Mophie charging solution

The world is opening up, and if you’re going to be spending time away from home, whether you’re in a hotel or your sibling’s spare bedroom, you need a portable filling station solution.

Once again, Mophie’s got something for your travel kit.

The new 3-in-1 travel charger ($150 USD) is designed for people in the Apple ecosystem. It includes a MagSafe mat for wirelessly charging an iPhone at 15 W, the fastest available speed, a node for charging an Apple Watch, and a third area for wirelessly charging AirPods in their case.

Including the one cable you need and a wall adapter, all of this comes with a fabric case to contain it all.
