While we await word of a sale or some kind of a compromise, the popular TikTok and WeChat mobile apps will be removed from Apple's App Store and Google's Play Store at midnight on Monday, September 21. The announcement follows months of jockeying and negotiations after the Trump Administration put the two apps on notice for allegedly collecting personal data from U.S. citizens and funneling it to the Chinese 

Tencent, which owns WeChat, would also be prohibited partnering with another company to offer "internet hosting, content delivery networks, internet transit or peering services to WeChat, or using the app's code in other software or services in the United States," according to the New York Times. Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross said the ban is intended to completely shut down WeChat in the U.S. beginning Monday.

TikTok will still be allowed to function until November 12 for anyone who previously downloaded the app. The stay is presumably to work out the terms of a potential sale.

Hi! I also used to struggle with finding quality downloaders until I came across the service "snaptik". This is tiktok download video, which allows you to download videos without any traces. It works simply: you need to paste the link to the video, and that's it. I tried several times, the quality always remains high. If you need "tiktok downloader hd", then this is the perfect option. Plus there is an option download tiktok video directly to your phone or computer. I advise you to try it!
