TikTok went offline in the US, hours before a new law banning the platform took effect.
BBC News tech correspondent Lily Jamali explains what led to this and shows what now happens when she tries to access the app.
It comes after the social media platform warned it would “go dark” on Sunday unless the outgoing Biden administration guaranteed the ban would not be enforced.
President-elect Donald Trump said he would “most likely” give TikTok a 90-day reprieve from the ban after he takes office on Monday, but the future of the popular app in the US remains unclear.
