America First News announced Tuesday it will deliver breaking conservative journalism directly to smartphones without requiring downloads from Apple's App Store or Google Play — eliminating Big Tech's ability to censor or remove the platform.
The move comes as major technology companies have increasingly restricted conservative media access. Apple removed Parler in January 2021. Google has demonetized dozens of right-leaning YouTube channels. Both platforms maintain opaque "community guidelines" that critics say target conservative content.
How It Works
Users visit americafirstnews.com on their mobile browser and tap "Add to Home Screen." The progressive web application installs instantly — no app store permission required. The platform delivers push notifications for breaking news and operates identically to a traditional mobile app.
The technology works on both iPhone and Android devices. Installation takes under 30 seconds.
"Silicon Valley oligarchs will not determine what news Americans can access on their own phones," said America First News publisher Marcus Wellington. "This is about information independence."
Breaking Big Tech's Chokehold
Apple and Google control 99% of the smartphone app market through their respective stores. Both companies have removed conservative platforms citing policy violations — though similar left-leaning content often remains available.
Progressive web apps circumvent this gatekeeping entirely. The technology uses standard web browsers — which Apple and Google cannot restrict without breaking fundamental internet functionality.
The platform launches with exclusive investigative reporting, real-time election coverage, and commentary from prominent conservative voices. Users receive breaking news alerts without intermediary filtering.
