Deleting the TikTok application from a mobile device removes the software and its locally stored data. The application icon disappears from the device’s home screen and application drawer. Temporary files and cached content associated with the program are also erased from the device’s storage.
This action primarily affects the user’s access to the platform via that specific device. It does not impact the user’s TikTok account itself, the content uploaded to the platform, or the user’s follower base. All of this data is stored on TikTok’s servers, independent of the application installed on any particular device.
