Unable to redownload TikTok on iPhone in Europe

I bought my phone in the us but live in Europe this morning when I opened my phone tiktok was unavailable because of the USA ban so I deleted it thinking that I could reinstall it on the App Store and get back into my account but the App Store no longer has tiktok the app available for me even though I am not in the us

If you live in Europe, you should have changed the region/country for your Apple Account.


If you are still using an account registered to the US, you will have to abide by the US App Store rules & procedures.

LITERALLY ITS NO LONGER BANNED ANYWAYS
  • Did Congress overturn the law? NO
  • Did the Supreme Court rule that an Executive Order can eliminate the fines in the law? NO
  • Have you been in touch with your Representatives that passed the law including the fines on Apple???
  • Did you know that the fine applies to Apple and Google only for new downloads in the App Store and does not affect previous downloads or web access.
  • Do you know what an Executive Order can and cannot do?

Still, any legal shield Trump promises by way of executive action will not hold up in court, Rozenshtein argues.

"This is not a power the president has, and he cannot wish it into existence merely by saying something and calling it an executive order," he said.
