Post-Ban, TikTok Becomes Top Free App on iOS

New Delhi: Short video sharing platform TikTok reclaimed the top free app on iOS and top free app in the “social” category on the Google Play Store, days after the Madras High Court’s Madurai Bench lifted the ban on the app, the company announced on Wednesday. “We would like to express our deepest gratitude and thank our over 200 million users in India for the overwhelming response, support and love they have shown towards TikTok. We are looking forward to continuing our journey with our TikTok family and actively work towards ensuring a safe and positive in-app experience for our users,” Sumedhas Rajgopal, Entertainment Strategy and Partnerships Lead, TikTok (India), said in a statement.

Owned by Chinese company ByteDance, TikTok claims to have over 120 million monthly active users in India. The Madras High Court last month passed an interim order banning mobile app citing inappropriate and pornographic content. (IANS)
