Now that Elon Musk’s Twitter is reinstating the accounts of previously banned users, such as former president Donald Trump, the possibility of Apple and Google banning Twitter from their app stores is no longer inconceivable.
Musk said he is prepared to construct his own phone, complete with (presumably) its own app store, should this ever occur.Information Guide Nigeria
In answer to a user’s question on what would occur if Apple and Google removed Twitter from their app stores, he tweeted, “I certainly hope it doesn’t come to that, but if there’s no other option, I’ll develop an alternate phone.”JAMB portal

Elon Musk states that there will be three’verified’ Twitter checkmarks: blue, gold, and grey.
Both Apple and Google have policies in place to combat hate speech, discrimination, and harassment, but neither company has formally stated or hinted that they will ban Twitter. Apple returned Parler to the App Store in April 2021, while Google reinstated it this September after enhancing its moderation procedures.NYSC portal
Musk previously stated that he would not reinstate any Twitter account without a “content moderation council with widely diverse viewpoints,” but he quickly reversed his position and reinstated Trump’s account following a Twitter poll.
Following Musk’s decision to turn Twitter’s blue checkmark, which was originally used to verify a user’s identity, into a monthly subscription service for $8, the company also experienced a surge in impersonations and fake news.JAMB Result
