TikTok said Sunday afternoon that it was \u201cworking to restore service\u201d and thanked President-elect Trump for providing clarity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Earlier, TikTok was blocked just before the federal ban took effect, with users seeing a message that said it was \u201ctemporarily unavailable.\u201d The service began to recover on mobile apps and the web around noon Sunday. The restored app displays the message, \u201cThanks to President Trump, TikTok is back.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After taking office, Trump issued an executive order extending the deadline for TikTok\u2019s sale. He also said he would hold companies that supported the service before the ban ineffective legally harmless. TikTok\u2019s main service providers, Oracle and Akamai, reportedly restored their services based on Trump\u2019s promise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, TikTok is still not available for download on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. App stores do not provide services to TikTok due to the ban, and violations can result in huge fines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TikTok told advertisers that it would lift some restrictions on advertising campaigns, saying the service would be available to \u201cmost U.S. users.\u201d But TikTok\u2019s return has drawn backlash from Republican lawmakers. Senators Tom Cotton and Pete Ricketts have praised the major tech companies for complying with the ban, emphasizing that there is no legal basis for extending it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TikTok has offered to work with Trump to restore service, sending a flattering message to him, while also expressing strong support for the First Amendment and its opposition to censorship. The company has said it will work with Trump to find a long-term solution, but it\u2019s unclear whether TikTok will ever fully return.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/designcompass.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/tiktok-banned-02-web-1024x768.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-37193\" srcset=\"https:\/\/designcompass.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/tiktok-banned-02-web-1024x768.png 1024w, https:\/\/designcompass.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/tiktok-banned-02-web-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/designcompass.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/tiktok-banned-02-web-768x576.png 768w, https:\/\/designcompass.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/tiktok-banned-02-web-1536x1152.png 1536w, https:\/\/designcompass.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/tiktok-banned-02-web-1320x990.png 1320w, https:\/\/designcompass.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/tiktok-banned-02-web-600x450.png 600w, https:\/\/designcompass.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/tiktok-banned-02-web.png 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Messages seen in blocked stores on January 19th<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/designcompass.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/tiktok-banned-03-web-1024x768.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-37194\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Messages displayed on January 20th, when some services were resumed<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TikTok\uc774 \uc57d 12\uc2dc\uac04 \ub3d9\uc548\uc758 \uc11c\ube44\uc2a4 \uc911\ub2e8\uc744 \ub05d\ub0b4\uace0 \ubbf8\uad6d\uc5d0\uc11c \uc77c\ubd80 \uc628\ub77c\uc778 \uc11c\ube44\uc2a4\ub97c \uc7ac\uac1c\ud588\uc2b5\ub2c8\ub2e4. \uadf8\ub7ec\ub098 \uc5ec\uc804\ud788 \uc571 \uc2a4\ud1a0\uc5b4\uc5d0\uc11c\ub294 \ub2e4\uc6b4\ub85c\ub4dc\ud560 \uc218 \uc5c6\uc2b5\ub2c8\ub2e4.
