Apple and Google removed TikTok from their app stores Saturday, complying with a law requiring China's ByteDance to divest the social app or see it face an effective ban in the U.S.

With President-elect Donald Trump adding uncertainty around whether a TikTok ban will go into effect, the focus is now turning to companies like Google and Apple that are expected to take the popular video sharing app off their platforms in just two days.

"We are fortunate that President Trump has indicated that he will work with us on a solution to reinstate TikTok once he takes office," the TikTok landing page reads

TikTok's app was removed from prominent app stores on Saturday evening just before a federal law that bans the popular social media platform went into effect.

The Chinese-owned company said it would cut off its services unless the U.S. assures Apple, Google and other companies that they would not be punished for hosting and distributing TikTok.

TikTok said it will be forced to go dark on January 19, the day the ban is set to take effect, without more assurances it won't be enforced.

The app says it will shut down Sunday unless the sitting president can assure tech companies that he won’t enforce the law.
