Apple Inc, following assurances from the Trump administration, is keeping TikTok and other apps from ByteDance Ltd on its US App Store for at least another 75 days. 

The iPhone maker on April 5 received a letter from Attorney General Pam Bondi telling the company it should follow President Donald Trump’s executive order that will extend the pause on a TikTok ban in the US, according to people with knowledge of the matter. An Apple spokesperson declined to comment.
