Mon Jan 20 18:53:48 UTC 2025: ## Trump Administration Abolishes CBP One Border App
**Washington, D.C. – January 21, 2025** – President Donald Trump’s administration has ended the use of the CBP One mobile application, a move fulfilling a campaign promise and immediately impacting nearly a million individuals who had utilized the app for legal entry into the United States.
The app, which allowed migrants to schedule appointments at eight southwest border ports of entry, was deactivated on Monday, January 20th, following Trump’s inauguration. A notice on the Customs and Border Protection website confirmed the app’s closure and cancellation of all existing appointments.
CBP One operated as an online lottery system, granting approximately 1,450 daily appointments. Entrants were admitted under “parole,” a presidential authority frequently used by the previous Biden administration. Critics of the app argued that its ease of use served as an incentive for increased migration to the U.S.-Mexico border. The Trump administration’s decision is expected to be welcomed by these critics.
