The first thing you need to do is see what country you registered your device under.
My Estate Life is available in multiple countries but not all of them, so if it turns out that your country is not listed, you might have to change your Google Play Store Country.
Change your Google Play country
To change your country, you need to set up a new country in Google Play. To set up a new country, you must be in that country and have a payment method from the new country.
- On your mobile device, open the Google Play Store .
- Tap Menu Account Country and profiles.
- Tap the country where you want to add an account.
- Follow the onscreen instructions to add a payment method to that country.
- The first payment method must be from the country you’re adding a profile for. Once you create the profile you can add payment methods from other countries.
- This creates a new Google Payments profile linked to the new country. The Google Play Store will automatically change to the new country. It can take up to 24 hours to change.
Note: You can only change your Play Country once per year. So if you change your country, you won’t be able to change it back for 1 year.
How to Change the Country Associated with an Apple ID from iOS
This can be done from the Settings on any iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch:
- Open Settings, and go to “iTunes & App Stores”
- Tap on the Apple ID and enter the associated password
- Choose “Country/Region” and select the new country to associate the account with.
Do note that if you change the country associated with an Apple ID, you will need to update billing information so that it corresponds to an appropriate address in the new country. That is required before you will be able to purchase anything from the new countries app store, though gift cards work as well if they are issued in the country of choice, and you can also switch countries with iTunes accounts that have been setup without a credit card on file and download free apps and music only.
Important Considerations for Changing Country Association of Apple ID’s
Some apps will no longer be able to update if they were available on one countries App Store and not another. That can be remedied by changing the country back to the original country that was associated with the download or purchase.
You won’t be able to switch countries if you have any remaining iTunes account balance, and you would get a message that says “you must spend your balance before you can change stores.” This limitation also applies to accounts with an active iTunes Match subscription.
