" President Trump will sign a supplementary executive order this week to continue TikTok's operations," said Karoline Leavitt, White House press secretary.
"As President Trump has said many times, the President does not want TikTok to stop operating. This extension will last for 90 days. The government will take time to ensure the deal is complete so that Americans can continue to use TikTok in their data state in a safe and secure manner," she added.
The US ban on TikTok if China-based parent company ByteDance does not divest from this US-based application was passed about 5 months ago.
However, Mr. Trump has postponed the implementation of the TikTok ban twice, effective until June 19.
The decision on June 17 was the third time Mr. Trump has extended the implementation of the decision to ban TikTok. This notice means that TikTok app users in the US can still access the app.
TikTok, especially popular among young people in the US, has 170 million users in the US.
President Trump has noted that using TikTok in the 2024 US presidential campaign has helped him increase support from young voters.
The parties have expressed interest in buying TikTok, including technology company Oracle, billionaire Frank McCourt's Liberty Project, and Andreessen Horowitz, a California-based project founded by billionaire Marc Andreessen.
