19. Not banned in China. International version of TT has no presence in China because of its sister app Douyin

TikTok is not banned in China.The app operates under a different name, Douyin. While TikTok is available internationally, Douyin is specifically designed for the Chinese market and follows different regulations and content guidelines set by the Chinese government.

No, TikTok is not banned in China, it just isn't available under the same name. Although it is true that TikTok is not available for download in mainland China, it is not banned. The Chinese version of TikTok is actually the original version of the app, called Douyin.

Douyin is a video-sharing social media service, used to create and share short-form videos of a minimum of 15 seconds and a maximum of 3 minutes in length.

In an effort to expand the Chinese-owned app, which by the spam of one year had earned 100 million users in China, Douyin founders created the international version of the social media platform. They called it TikTok.
