Are you in the U.S? If so, that's correct, you can't download TikTok at the present time.

i need help to reinstall Tik Tok.

It is not possible. All you can do is use the web version for now. Nobody knows even how long that will last, as the law has NOT been overturned and TikTok must be sold to a US company in order to operate in the US.

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 The law has NOT been repealed by congress, so the days are counting down and access to even the website will be removed if China does not allow the app to be sold to a US company.

Hello everyone I’m here to tell you that you can download TikTok if you go to AppStore and change ur country like Canada and download a vpn yiu are available to download TikTok

Are you also here to let people know that you have to cancel all subscriptions and call Apple to stop them immediately as the subscription will still be active until the expiration date. Then you have to clear your Apple Account. Don't forget adding a payment method for the new region, and then hope your Account does not get locked.

Yes, that has happened and the users have committed fraud which violates their user agreement. At the very least it will require your device wiped of all data, and worst case scenario is you will need to create a new Apple ID, which along with all data and any iCloud backups being lost, you also lose your purchase history.

Good Luck with that one, hopefully you are taking responsibility and here to help those users.

I need TikTok back

Your only option is to use the web version. I assume you have been in contact with your Congressional Representatives that passed the law. Otherwise no one here is going to be able to get it back for you.

To get TikTok back

Currently that is not going to happen. Things may change if TikTok decides to divest to a US company as required by the law, but so far that has not happened. You can access TikTok on the web using Safari, but the days are numbered for that even and you are down to about 65 days for TikTok to comply.

i really need TikTok because my friend deleted my TikTok and he also almost broke my phone so pls try your best

This is a user to user forum. There is nothing anyone here can do to bring Tik Tok back.

Also, Apple will not bring it back until the law that banned it is actually repealed. Otherwise they could see fines of billions of dollars for doing so. Are you prepared to pay $5000USD yourself to have Apple make it available on the App Store?

Not at this time.

About availability of TikTok and ByteDance Ltd. apps in the United States - Apple Support

not Apple’s fault. not available from Google either. companies like apple and google are wise to sit it out until the dust settles
