Now that we have seen Trump's executive orders, it's clear he is taking the route of non-enforcement. However, TikTok remains unavailable on the Apple App Store and given that the support article [1] remains unchanged since Monday, I'd say it's likely to stay that way until a court rules on the matter.
"Apple is obligated to follow the laws in the jurisdictions where it operates. Pursuant to the Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act, apps developed by ByteDance Ltd. and its subsidiaries — including TikTok, CapCut, Lemon8, and others — will no longer be available for download or updates on the App Store for users in the United States starting January 19, 2025."
