Chinese social apps Xiaohongshu and Lemon8 have soared to the top two spots on Apple's iPhone charts ahead of the U.S.'s impending TikTok ban.

As the threat of a TikTok ban looms, some U.S. TikTok users are flocking to Chinese social media app Xiaohongshu – making it the top downloaded app in the U.S.

Ahead of a potential ban this Sunday, Xiaohongshu, which is also known as Red Note or Booktok, quickly became the most downloaded free app on the U.S. App Store on Tuesday, surpassing Lemon8, a social network app that is also owned by TikTok parent ByteDance.
