President Donald Trump repurposed the app. Rather than facilitating immigration, CBP Home, as CBP One has been rebranded, plans to facilitate “self-deportation.” “

Critics of the Biden-era CBP One app said migrants were abusing the asylum-request system to legally enter the United States, then disappear.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has launched a new app that officials say will allow immigrants suspected of being in the country illegally to report when they "self deport." Why it matters: The move comes after the Trump administration shut down the CBP One app that facilitated the legal entry of migrants at the border,

The Trump administration repurposed an app used by the Biden administration to book appointments for asylum claims, into an app that helps migrants ‘self deport,’ the Department of Homeland Security said.

The Trump administration has unveiled an overhauled cellphone app once used to let migrants apply for asylum, turning it into a system that allows people living illegally in the U.S. to say they want to leave the country voluntarily.
