TikTok plans to launch a new U.S. app as trade agreements near completion.

Trump hints that a deal is close after months of negotiations.

The new application will enhance data privacy and government regulation features.

The agreement is seen as key to the Sino-U.S. technology relationship and the future of TikTok in the U.S. market.

Tuesday, July 8, 2025 - TikTok is preparing to launch a new app in the United States, following former President Donald Trump's statement that a trade agreement with the social media giant is nearing completion.

The expected release aims to address long-standing concerns over data privacy and national security, allowing TikTok to maintain its position in the lucrative U.S. market.

Trump recently stated: "We have basically reached an agreement." This marks a progress after months of negotiations amid tensions surrounding TikTok's Chinese ownership and U.S. regulatory scrutiny.

The new version of the application is expected to enhance data protection measures and increase regulatory functions in accordance with the requirements of the U.S. government.

The agreement could become an important turning point in Sino-U.S. technology relations and may serve as a model for other Chinese-owned platforms facing regulatory hurdles. TikTok's parent company ByteDance is trying to appease U.S. officials by proposing to establish data centers and an independent regulatory structure in the United States.

Industry analysts believe that the launch of new applications is crucial for TikTok, as it can retain its large user base in the United States, advertisers, and its influence in the social media space, while alleviating political concerns.

More details regarding the terms of the agreement and application features are expected to be announced in the coming weeks.
