You won't have to, but if an actual ban went through, and an iPhone is your only means of connection, you would be truly SOL, because Apple's captured ecosystem only allows users to run what Apple will permit.
We need open ecosystems and access to full root-level control of our devices by default. Accept no substitutes.
- dantheman 2y agoDon't use an iphone if you don't like it, don't use tiktok if you don't like it. It's really very simple, the government has no role in either case.

- nebula8804 2y agoCorrect me if I am wrong but this only limits people who already haven't downloaded the app yet? People who already have the app wouldn't just have it forcibly uninstalled from their phone right? I have had apps that didn't make it to the 32 -> 64 bit transition stay on my phone when my apps get transferred from phone to phone.
- zeroonetwothree 2y agoI guess you better hope you never have to upgrade then
- nebula8804 2y agoLike I said in my example, Apple carries over apps through the cloud from phone to phone when you migrate. This is different from allowing it to be visible in the store.
- itemize 2y agonot SOL, but you have to jump through one hoop -- you can download apps from other regional store if you make an alternative account.
