Four out of the top 10 most downloaded free mobile apps in the US and UK are Chinese-owned.
TikTok, the most popular free app in the US, has in recent days been making headlines not for its content but for alleged links to the Chinese Communist Party.
The online superstore sells everything from apparel to electronics and allows consumers to bypass warehouse stores and buy directly from the Chinese manufacturer. The success of Chinese apps in the US is partly down to the fierce competition that exists in their domestic market where US apps are banned, experts say.
This same concern has led the European Commission, the UK and Canada to ban TikTok from the phones of government employees.
