Amazon and AppLovin reportedly submitted bids to acquire TikTok, ahead of a U.S. ban set to go into effect Saturday if no deal is reached with the app's Chinese parent company.

Trump was to reportedly hold a White House meeting Wednesday to consider an offer to buy TikTok, as it faces a ban in the U.S. on April 5 if it is not sold to an American company.

President Donald Trump wrote earlier this year that he wants the U.S. to have a 50% ownership stake in a joint venture to own TikTok.
