US President Donald Trump signed an order that extends the ban on the popular app TikTok for 75 days, which was set to be shut down on January 19.

According to Reuters, this decision followed intense legal and political maneuvering as millions of American TikTok users worried about the fate of their favorite short video service.

Trump proposed that the US government become a co-owner of TikTok's American operations in exchange for keeping the app running. At the same time, he warned that he might impose tariffs on China if Beijing did not approve the deal between the US and TikTok.

The drama began on Saturday when the video app was pulled from the network in light of a new law that required the Chinese company ByteDance to either sell TikTok or cease its operations in the US due to national security concerns.

The following day, Trump announced his intention to save TikTok, and just a few hours later, the company announced the resumption of its service in the US. However, despite this, TikTok is still unavailable for download in the Apple and Google app stores.

Background. Previously, Mind reported that on January 18, TikTok ceased operations in the United States. The app disappeared from the App Store and Google Play.
