If TikTok doesn't find a buyer before Sunday, Jan 19, it will likely have to stop operation in the U.S. This is due to a law signed by President Biden in April, which requires TikTok parent company Bytedance to sell its U.S. assets by the deadline.

(Reuters) -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, sources familiar with the matter said.

TikTok may face an immediate and complete shutdown in the US on Sunday, January 19, following a potential ban. If the ban is implemented, TikTok will display a pop-up redirecting users to a website for information and allow them to download their data.
