I just deleted the tik tok app because everyone’s started working again and was going to redownload it and it won’t show up on the Apple Store to redownload even though I have a tik tok account

Scroll to the top of this page and read the Did You Know message.

Can you send the link?

Would you really follow a link that someone sent you?

You do realize, once you enter your Apple ID/Password after following a link, the scammer can instantly lock you out of your device. They will mark your phone as Lost, and then there would be no way for you to use your phone again. That is a very common scam and they will demand money from you, but you have no guarantee they will remove any lock on your phone and most likely they won't even bother after getting your money.

Bro how did ppl get tik tok after deleting it I now can’t get it back and it’s rly annoying how do I get it back

Bro, you don't. The fines placed on Apple and Google for allowing anyone to download the app in the App Store have NOT been overturned. Congress has not overturned it and the Supreme Court has not ruled whether an Executive Order can bypass those fines. So now you are left with any previous version that you may have on your device or using Safari to access it on the web, but no one is able to download/redownload the app from the App Store or the Google Play Store.

I deleted TikTok after all my friends said that TikTok is going to be banned. I looked at TikTok to see if it was real. It said that it was banned so I deleted it then people kept on saying that it got banned so I tried it again on the App Store, but it did not work. To anybody that I was trying to delete TikTok

They need to put it back on the app because I really want to download it again. They need to do it.

The law that fines Apple and Google for allowing any download has NOT been overturned. Have you been in contact with your congressman/congresswoman? They are the ones that passed the law and put those fines in place.

I can’t download TikTok

You are correct! I am surprised you don't know why after reading the post here. Start at page 1 or view the section on the top of the page titled "Do you know?".

You can use Safari to access it on the web for now. The law has NOT been repealed by congress, so the days are counting down and access to even the website will be removed if China does not allow the app to be sold to a US company.

YESSS🙌🏼🙌🏼 like it’s unbanned now , it needs to be back in app stores , SINCE IT IS UNBANNED . Apple do your job pleaseeeeee!!! (Not in a rude way)

Actually it is NOT. Congress has not repealed the fines that are imposted on Apple and Google for downloads in the App Store and the Supreme Court has NOT ruled that the fines imposed by the law can be eliminated with an Executive Order.

So, what does that leave you with? You can still use any previous download of TikTok and you can access it with Safari on the website. If I were you, I would not wait to use the web version because the days are numbered for access to that if China does not divest TikTok and sold to a US company. I guess that is what you mean by UNBANNED.

J'ai supprimé TikTok le jour où il a été banni parce que je pensais qu'il allait être banni pendant longtemps, jusqu'à ce que 12 heures plus tard, il fonctionne à nouveau et je ne pouvais pas le télécharger.

Si TikTok est utilisable et débloqué pour les utilisateurs qui ne l'ont pas supprimé ou sur les appareils qui l'ont encore, je pense qu'il devrait être remis en ligne dans les magasins d'applications.

Bien qu'il ait été interdit, il semblerait que le président Trump ait travaillé avec eux pour le récupérer, et depuis qu'il est de retour au pouvoir, j'ai l'impression que les utilisateurs devraient avoir la possibilité de le récupérer dans les magasins d'applications.

I deleted TikTok once I heard that it would be banned because I thought it would be it then it was announced that TikTok had been UN-banned so I went to the App Store and I couldn’t find the app to put TikTok back in the App Store for the people who deleted it since it is now unbanned

I’m a video creator so I need to have TikTok

U.S. law currently bans the distribution of the TikTok app, and other ByteDance Ltd. apps, in the United States.

Apple and Google are obligated to follow U.S. law.

Why can’t i download Tik Tok

Because you have not read the posts here. If you had, then you would know the reason. Start at page 1 or even look at the section on the top of this page titled "Did you know?".

For what it's worth -- the only difference between "deleting" and "offloading" an app is the fact that offloading leaves behind the apps's user data, saved files and settings, so it's all still there when/if you redownload the app.

So, you did actually delete the app off your phone. Of course you did, because that's what freed up the space in your otherwise limited phone storage. If it wasn't deleting the app, where do you think that extra space was coming from?

I'll also say that offloading or deleting, on a daily basis, any of the apps I use, and then reacting this way when the strategu backfires, seems more insane to me.
