How to keep using Xiaohongshu if it gets banned, and even continue using TikTok.

In the neon-drenched sprawl of 2025, when the corpos pull the plug on your favorite apps, a savvy netrunner knows how to jack back in. Here's how to get Xiaohongshu and TikTok running on your Huawei gear, even if they've been flatlined in the States.

First, snag the Huawei AppGallery APK from a reputable source like APKMirror , and slot it into your device. Make sure your security settings allow installs from unknown sources.

With AppGallery online, search for and install Xiaohongshu and TikTok. To bypass geo-blocks, deploy a reliable VPN like NordVPN or ExpressVPN, connecting to a server in a TikTok-friendly zone, such as Japan.

Fire up TikTok while the VPN is active and create your account. Once you're in, you might not need to keep the VPN running for everyday scrolling, but stay sharp—future net regulations could change the game.

Remember, in this cyberpunk reality, the net is ever-shifting. Stay updated, keep your software sharp, and always be ready to adapt to the latest digital decrees to navigate the matrix safely.
