Yes, but my point is that TikTok is the most downloaded app in the United States, with apparently about 100 million installs. I'm just looking at reports on various sites.

Edit: other sites put YouTube, and others higher with TikTok at 40% of phones.

Nothing else controlled by the CCP looks like it even comes close to that in America.
