TikTok is reportedly setting up a plan to shut down in the U.S. as the Supreme Court continues to weigh Sunday's looming ban.

ByteDance has revealed what will happen to the TikTok app in the United States once the shutdown comes into place on Sunday, January 19.

If TikTok is banned on January 19, users in the United States could see their access abruptly shut off, but they'll be able to retrieve their personal data.

TikTok is preparing to go dark for U.S. users this Sunday if the Supreme Court does not grant its emergency appeal to halt a law that will ban the app unless Chinese parent ByteDance divests its stake,

Users who have the TikTok app on their phone will still be able to access it after Jan. 19. However, because the ban would prevent Apple and Google from providing the app with necessary updates, TikTok would quickly break down and become unusable, leading Americans to look for an alternative app.

TikTok plans to shut its app for U.S. users from Sunday, when a federal ban on the social media app could come into effect, unless the Supreme Court moves to block it, people familiar with the matter said.

TikTok has warned of a looming shutdown in just six days, as the Supreme Court is currently weighing the law that would ban the app. So we thought it’s time to take a look at other platforms that may be able to fill the TikTok-shaped hole in our lives.

TikTok's reported plans include giving users a pop-message directing them to a website with information about the ban.
