Tens of millions of American users of TikTok who are girding for a ban of the app are migrating en masse to another Chinese-owned platform that has emerged as an alternative.

RedNote, which is known in China as Xiaohongshu, the Mandarin term for “little red book,” is the most downloaded free app on the Apple App Store as of Monday.

The digital migration of so-called “TikTok Refugees” comes ahead of the Jan. 19 deadline when TikTok could face suspension in the US unless its parent company, ByteDance, divests the app.
