TikTok and WeChat Will Be Banned From US App Stores on Sunday

The Trump administration will ban the Chinese-owned apps TikTok and WeChat from U.S. app stores beginning this Sunday.

Tech companies have made clear that they don’t like the idea of blocking apps without a more organized policy process, and have suggested that they see this as a First Amendment issue, said Adam Segal, a cybersecurity expert at the Council on Foreign Relations.

If you already have TikTok downloaded on your phone, it will continue to work at least until Nov. 12.
