On the other hand, TikTok Music, the music streaming platform from ByteDance, will shut down at the end of November 2024. The service will stop operating on November 28 with all user data and login information deleted.
Quoted from Engadget, Wednesday (25/9/2024), for those of you who subscribe via Google Play and have a subscription that ends after that date, you will automatically get a refund.
Otherwise, refunds can also be requested directly through Google Play before closing. Meanwhile, for Apple users, refunds must be requested via Apple support services before November 28.
However, there is one important thing to note. If you request a refund, TikTok Music’s premium service will stop once the refund is processed. So, for those who still want to enjoy premium features, consider waiting a while.
Apart from that, for those of you who want to move your playlist from TikTok Music to another platform, the deadline is October 28.
TikTok Music was first launched in Indonesia and Brazil in July 2023, replacing the music platform Resso. After that, TikTok Music was also introduced in Australia, Mexico and Singapore. Unfortunately, even though Bytedance applied for the trademark “TikTok Music” in May 2022, this service was never launched in the United States.
So, for TikTok Music users, make sure you have secured your playlist and completed all your matters before this service officially stops, OK!
