TikTok is now offering U.S. users to download the Android version of the app on its own website, the company announced last night. With this change, Android users in the United States have an easy way to download or update the app for the first time since Google removed it from Google Play last month in response to the app’s ban in the United States.
You can download both TikTok and TikTok Lite, a version of the app designed to work with slow internet connections. You can then install or update the app by simply opening the file and approving its installation. The process is quick – I was able to update TikTok to the latest version on my Pixel 6 in about the same amount of time it takes to download the app from Google Play.
