Donald Trump now tweeting from encrypted Secret Service-approved phone after being forced to give up his Android
The 45th president of the United States has always been a fan of broadcasting his opinions on Twitter
DONALD Trump had to surrender his android phone before taking his oath of office, leaving his aides breathing a sigh of relief.
It means the 45th President of the United States, who loves to broadcast his personal opinions on Twitter was given a much more secure mobile which has been given the green light by the Secret Service.
Those advisors close to him are said to be relieved as Trump frequently got calls to his mobile which left them blindsided during his campaign.
He thought nothing of answering calls personally much to the chagrin of his press liaison.
The billionaire also had to give up his embellished 757 plane, and instead used an Air Force jet to get to his inauguration in Washington.
Trump did say he would tweet less, however, he does not seem to have slowed down since winning the election.
However, now he has a new secure phone it may be that he will not be hitting social media as frequently.
But he has confirmed he will still use his personal handle, as well as the official one for the president - POTUS.
Trump started his day attending church and managed to tweet: "It all begins today! I will see you at 11 a.m. for the swearing-in. THE MOVEMENT CONTINUES - THE WORK BEGINS!"
President Obama spoke about how difficult it was to give up his smart phone and discussed how primitive the device was he had to use which was for security reasons.
He told Jimmy Fallon last year that his staff explained: "For security reasons -- this is a great phone, state-of-the-art - but it doesn't take pictures, you can't text, the phone doesn't work, you can't play your music on it."
Hillary Clinton, who was defeated by Trump as the democratic candidate, also wanted to keep her personal Blackberry as secretary of state.
However it was this that led to her email debacle which she blamed for derailing her campaign.
