Can you download and use the TikTok app on a Jio phone?

I am afraid, the answer is no. You cannot download and use TikTok on a Jio phone. TikTok is available for Android and iOS devices. Jio Phone is a feature phone based on KaiOS operating system and only supports limited apps. Unless Reliance Jio decides to develop a Jio phone compatible version of the TikTok app and includes it on its Jio app store, there really is no hope for Jio phone users. Till then there is no way to download and use TikTok on a Jio phone.

Are there any hidden tricks or methods that let you download TikTok on Jio Phone?

Well, I am afraid the answer is still no. There are no hidden tricks or methods that let you download and use TikTok on a Jio phone.
