TikTok races to launch new US app as sale deadline approaches
TikTok is secretly building a brand-new app for American users because its Chinese owner, ByteDance, must sell the US version by law. According to insider reports, this replacement app will hit Apple and Google stores on September 5. President Trump claims the US “pretty much” has a deal ready, but he’ll start talks with China this week to finalize it.
