Let f and g be holomorphic or Maass cusp forms for \rm SL2(ℤ) and let χ be a primitive Dirichlet character of prime power conductor q=pn. For any given ε>0, we establish the following subconvexity bound L(1/2,f⊗ g ⊗ χ)≪f,g,εq9/10+ε. The proof employs the DFI circle method with standard manipulations, including the conductor-lowering mechanism, Voronoi summation, and Cauchy--Schwarz inequality. The key input is certain estimates on the resulting character sums, obtained using the p-adic version of the van der Corput method.
