TikTok Returns to U.S. App Stores After Legal Reprieve Amid Ongoing Ownership Negotiations
TikTok is back on Apple and Google’s app stores after a delay linked to an enforcement of U.S. law requiring ByteDance to divest.
Overview
TikTok has re-emerged in the U.S. app stores following a 75-day hold imposed by President Trump, who delayed a law requiring the app's Chinese owner, ByteDance, to sell its U.S. operations. After receiving assurances from the Justice Department, Apple and Google reinstated TikTok on February 15. The app had been removed on January 18 due to compliance with a new law that could force a ban. Despite TikTok's reinstatement, its future remains uncertain as potential buyers include Frank McCourt and MrBeast, amid ongoing discussions about its ownership and national security concerns.
