I'm not on Parler but may look into it in the future. While no tech guy myself, I don't understand why Parler doesn't have their own apps for people to use. You wouldn't need Google or Apple to sign on to Parler. You just go to Parler's website, download their app for your particular phone, desktop or laptop, and join in.
Parler did have an app, both for Android and apparently for iPhone.
Both the iPhone and Android platforms each depend primarily on one source to obtain apps, and both sources, it seems have recently removed Parley's app from them.
For Android, Parler could indeed offer the app directly from their own web site. It's a bit more difficult to install an app from any third-party source, than from the Google Play site, but it's not terribly difficult.
My understanding is that Apple makes it very difficult to install apps on an iPhone other than from its own source.
Of course, you can always access Parler from a web browser. For Android, at least, there are very many web browsers available, and really not much that Google can do to stop any of them from accessing Parler.
This.....what the democrats never learned from history...
