President-elect Donald Trump said he plans to delay a federal ban on the popular social media app TikTok and give its China -based parent company more time to find an approved buyer.

TikTok went offline in the U.S. on Saturday in response to a federal law that required the company to divest from its Chinese owner, ByteDance .

The law was upheld by a unanimous Supreme Court ruling on Friday .

Trump has the power under the law to give TikTok the 90 days to sell if he certifies to Congress that there has been significant progress made toward a sale.
