Tiktok is again available on American Apple and Google application stores, after President Donald Trump has imposed a ban on Chinese -owned social media platform until April 5.
The famous application, which is used by more than 170 million American users, has become dark for a short time in the United States in the United States as the deadline for the ban is approaching.
Trump then signed an executive order that gives Tiktok a 75 -day extension to comply with a law that prohibits the application if it is not sold.
Tiktok did not immediately respond to a request for comment from BBC News.
According to Bloomberg, who first reported the return of Tiktok to the application stores in the United States, the decision to resume its availability came after Apple and Google received assurances from the Trump administration that it will not bear the responsibility for allowing downloads, and the ban will not be prohibited yet.
The ban, issued by a two -party vote in Congress, was signed by the law of former President Joe Biden. I ordered the Baytanas houses to sell the American version from the platform to a neutral party to avoid a complete ban.
The Biden Administration has argued that China could use Tijok as a tool for spying and political manipulation.
China and Tectok have denied these accusations over and over again. Beijing has previously rejected calls for the sale of American Tiktok operations.
The law prohibiting the application was supported by American lawmakers on both sides of the corridor and was eventually supported by the Supreme Court.
Trump supported himself to ban the application during his first term in his position, but it seems that he had a change in the heart last year during the presidential race.
He declared a “warm spot” of the application, describing billions of views that his videos attracted it on the platform during the presidential campaign for the past year.
When the application started working again in the United States last month, a popup was sent to millions of users Thanks Trump by name.
