Feb 13 (Reuters) - Apple ( AAPL ) will restore
ByteDance-owned TikTok on its U.S. App Store on Thursday
following a directive from U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi,
Bloomberg News reported on Thursday, citing people with
knowledge of the matter.
Apple ( AAPL ) confirmed to Bloomberg News that the app will return
Thursday evening.
Last month, U.S. President Donald Trump signed an executive
order seeking to delay by 75 days the enforcement of a ban of
the popular short-video app that was slated to be shuttered on
Jan. 19.
However, even after the order, TikTok remained unavailable
on Apple ( AAPL ) and Google app stores in the U.S.
Apple ( AAPL ) did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for
comment.
