Tiktok is once again available at Apple’s app store and Google’s play store in the United States. The application disappeared from Apple and Google stores on January 19, 2025, since a national prohibition briefly entered into force. But although the application of the application was quickly restored after President Donald Trump promised not to enforce the ban, the application was not available to download in the United States application stores.
Apple has now reversed the course. Bloomberg reported The company made the decision after a letter from the Attorney General of the United States, Pam Bondi. Trump previously said to the Department of Justice in an executive order to delay the application of a ban for 75 days. Apple did not immediately respond to a request for comments. Tiktok is now also officially available in Google Play Store, after the company encouraged Android users to stop responding to the application. According AxiosThe Department of Justice assured that Google assured that restoring people’s access to Tiktok would not violate the law.
It is still not clear what will finally happen to Tiktok in the long term. Trump has repeatedly said that he wants to reach a “agreement” that allows the company to remain operational in the United States, including the arrangements that would give the United States government a participation in the company. Several investors and companies have also proposed offers to take care of some aspect of Tiktok, although the company has not indicated which offers could be taking seriously.
