TikTok’s Play Store rating back up to 4+ stars after Google removed more than 8 million negative reviews

TikTok was hit by a swarm of negative reviews in India following a dispute between local YouTube creators and TikTok influencers, which brought down the app's Play Store rating to an average of only 1.2 stars.
