It got off loaded when I woke up this morning

Go to Settings > App Store > Offload Unused Apps. It this switch is turned on, then apps will automatically be offloaded when they have not been used recently and is more likely to happen when space becomes constrained on your phone.


As for getting it back, that will not be possible since it is no longer available in the App Store.

when will the Tango program be restored in the App store

Depends on if the developer can submit the app to meet the Submission Guidelines. It is not that tough as BIGO Live and many other similar apps have done it. You would have to contact the developer to see if that is something they are willing to do. Any time an app is rejected from the App Store, Apple communicates with the developer for the reason and gives them the opportunity to make a correction. You cannot expect Apple to disclose their conversations with the developer, but the developer could surely do that if they wanted to. You can review the Submission Guidelines yourself here:

As of March 2025 it looks like Apple completely terminated their relationship with Tango. The app cannot be installed even if it was previously installed. This is different from the app being temporarily delisted like before, this time it looks like a more permanent removal.


Tango also removed the "Sign in with Apple" option on their website. This is further evidence their relationship with Apple is over for now.


It's very likely this app will not come back to Apple any time soon. It's still available on the Google Play store and via the website.

You guessed it, if it is not in the App Store you will not be downloading it. That should have been very apparent after reading the posts here and would have saved you the trouble of posting the same question.

I don’t have tango in my app, Apple Store

That is because it is no longer there. Contact the developer and convince them to submit the app that adheres to the Submission Guidelines just like every other app you see in the App Store. If the developer does not want to do that, they surely do not have to. When the app is no longer available in the App Store you will not be able to download it, even if you had before.

How can I use tango in the app? If not


The Tango app is not available in the Apple App Store.


There is no supported means to use the Tango app on Apple devices.


You can use whatever web interface the service might offer, but you will have to discuss the return of an app to the Apple App Store with Tango support.

Just depends on if the developer is able to submit the app that meets the Submission Guidelines just like every other app must do. If an app is removed by Apple, the developer will get an email that explains what violations have occurred and are given an opportunity to update the app. It may just be that the developer does not want to make those changes. Only the developer knows the reason as Apple does not disclose the communications with a developer. Similar apps such as BIGO Live did update their app and were made available again in the App Store.

True, but you can see other apps like BIGO, LiveMe, etc are still available but Tango was removed.
I think Apple terminated the developer account for Tango and it's more serious than failing an app review.

Only the developer would know. BIGO had their app removed and had no problem getting it reinstated by following the guidance provided by Apple. Tango would have the same opportunity as any of the other apps in the same category. That says more about Tango than it does Apple.


Other than that, what you have provided is pure speculation on what you think happened. A developer account can be terminated for egregious violations of the Terms of Use or for illegal activity, but there is no indication that was the case either and if there was then we could only thank Apple for taking action.
