TikTok Sidesteps US Ban: Encourages Android Users to Sideload APK
2025-02-11
Facing potential US bans, TikTok has implemented a workaround. While President Trump's executive order temporarily halted a ban, TikTok is encouraging Android users to download the app directly from its website as an APK file, bypassing the Google Play Store. This allows TikTok to temporarily circumvent app store bans, though a similar option isn't yet available for iOS users.
