Apple tonight removed TikTok from the App Store in the U.S., meaning that the app can no longer be freshly installed on iPhones and iPads there.
With President-elect Trump adding uncertainty around whether a TikTok ban will go into effect, the focus is now turning to companies like Google and Apple.
Apple has a list of ByteDance apps that you can’t download in the US right now like TikTok, CapCut, and Marvel Snap.
After briefly going dark, TikTok returned in the U.S. — but if you can't redownload the app, here's why (and what you might be able to do about it).
TikTok is bringing its service back online in the US, after shutting down for about half a day. The company said this afternoon that it is “in the process of restoring service” and thanked President-elect Trump for “providing the necessary clarity” to do so.
Just 14 hours later, service returned to TikTok. Unfortunately, many users decided to uninstall the app during the blackout. The ByteDance-owned app hasn’t been re-added to the Apple App Store and Google Play Store, leaving many unable to access TikTok despite service being restored.
TikTok may be back, but that hasn’t prevented other Chinese competitors from gaining users. In the lead up to a ban on TikTok — which kicked off Sunday and lasted a day — a number of other video apps rose through the ranks and now dominate the App Store’s Top Charts.
Heartbroken TikTokers are going cuckoo. Users of the now defunct social app nationwide are mourning its loss early Sunday, after the popular video-sharing platform went dark for its 170 million American users in the face of a legal US ban.
