TikTok finds way to skirt US ban with Android sideload

TikTok has bypassed restrictions in the US that prevent users from downloading the app on an Android device.

The Chinese-owned app was banned in the US in January due to fears that it could be used to collect private data of citizens or spread propaganda through its algorithm. TikTok has denied these claims.

US President Donald Trump, who came into office on 20 January, signed an executive order delaying the nationwide ban, however the app remains unavailable through the Apple and Google app stores
