Skylight Social, a social media alternative to TikTok, launched today but users alerted its founders that they believed Apple was burying it in its app store.

TikTok, which boasts more than 170 million users, has been under fire by U.S. legislators over concerns about data privacy and national security. In order to save the app, Trump gave the social media site until April 5 to divest and find a U.S.-based owner.

A group of US senators have written to President Trump to warn him that his handling of the TikTok ban is leaving Apple, Google, and Oracle exposed to “ruinous legal liability.” The three companies are potentially at risk of being fined up to $850B (yes, billion not million) for continuing to offer the app despite it being banned from the US …

If ByteDance does not divest TikTok by April 5, the app could go dark once again. President Trump has already addressed how he plans to prevent the ban.

Throughout this process, ByteDance – a Chinese company – has yet to comment directly on the potential of a sale to a US firm. TikTok's US leadership and its CEO, Shou Zi Chew, have publicly praised President Donald Trump for his intervention but have been mostly silent since then.

Developed by co-founders Tori White (CEO) and Reed Hermeyer (CTO), Skylight offers a short-form video app experience with many familiar features, including an in-app video editor; the ability to comment, like, and share videos; set up your own user profile; and follow others.

Many questions remain about the state of a potential deal, but loyal TikTok users have reason to be optimistic. Several interested parties have raised their hands to potentially buy the app, and Trump has expressed a desire to help facilitate a deal and preserve access to the platform.
