⚙️RedNote, Flip, Clapper and Likee claim the top of the App Store as TikTok comes back online
As TikTok returns online after a brief ban, several competing apps have surged in popularity, dominating the App Store's top charts. RedNote (Xiaohongshu) has claimed the No. 1 spot, gaining 700,000 new U.S. users during the TikTok ban. Other apps like Clapper, Flip, and Likee also ranked high, with Clapper and Likee taking the No. 4 and No. 2 spots, respectively.
The TikTok outage prompted users to explore alternatives, signaling a preference for Chinese apps over Instagram. Despite TikTok's restoration, these competitors continue to thrive, with significant download increases reported. Notably, VPN apps also saw a spike in downloads as users attempted to bypass restrictions during the ban. The app landscape is expected to shift again as users reconsider their choices with TikTok back online.

However, analysts are positive on the stock now. “We have seen a huge downside movement in the stock due to the central electricity regulatory commission’s (CERC) order that seems to be negative from 2014-15 onwards but we cannot take a linear negative view on the stock and further downside movement on the stock is unlikely. Currently stock is underpriced. Investors can bet on it for a longer horizon," said Vivek Gupta, director research at CapitalVia Global Research.
