If you live in the United States
If you already have these apps installed on your device, they will remain on your device. But they can't be redownloaded if deleted or restored if you move to a new device. In-App-Käufe und neue Abonnements sind nicht mehr möglich.
Users in the United States won't receive updates for these apps, which could potentially impact performance, security, and compatibility with future versions of iOS and iPadOS, and some app functions might become limited or stop working since the app can't receive updates.
If you're visiting the United States
ByteDance's apps remain available for download in all other countries and regions where they are available.
Users visiting from outside the United States with their Apple Account set to a country or region that is not the United States are unable to download, update or make in-app purchases and new subscriptions inside ByteDance Ltd. apps while within the land or maritime borders of the United States.
After leaving the United States, you'll have access to all functionality.
Get help with ByteDance Ltd. apps in the United States
If you already have a subscription to TikTok, CapCut, or another ByteDance Ltd. app, you can still cancel your subscription.
For any other questions about TikTok or other ByteDance Ltd. apps, contact the developer on the web.

If you're in the U.S., that's correct. You can't get it back.
if Android is letting people download it outside of google play, apple should do the same. #endrant
How can I download TikTok, I had it before, but I deleted it
TikTok app couldn’t download on my App Store however if I open the App Store TikTok only shows open but couldn’t get me clicked on
I just got an insurance replacement phone, and after backing all my stuff into the cloud, and redownloading it on my new phone. It decided to not save all of my passwords, along as my tictok app. Now whenever I try and open tictok, it Telles me that it's not available. While I didn't make the mistake of uninstalling tictok, I still have to face the penalties.

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.
