The Chinese-owned social media app TikTok has been reinstated on the Apple and Google app stores following a temporary removal prompted by a national security law. The law mandated ByteDance, TikTok's parent company, to offload its U.S. operations by January 19 or risk a ban on the app in the country. President-Elect Trump stepped in, proposing to postpone the ban and engage in discussions to safeguard national security, paving the way for TikTok to resume operations for American users.
