As of April 17, TikTok is no longer available to download in India from Google or Apple app stores.
TikTok has been banned in India after the Supreme Court refrained from imposing a stay order on the ruling by Madras High Court. As a result, the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) asked Google and Apple to de-list the popular video making app from their respective app stores. As of April 17, the app is no longer available to download in India from either of the two app stores.
While users of TikTok who have the app downloaded on their phones can use it without any restrictions, new users cannot access the app from Play Store or App Store. Having said that, there are certain workarounds in place that at least allow Android phone users to access TikTok.
