How to Change Region on iPhone

When you want to change countries, you also need to update your iPhone by adjusting the owner's region. Doing so is easy, but the implications are a bit more complex.

The region on the iPhone is installed following the region/country where you live. Because this region will affect the features, content, and services available. For example, not all apps and movies are available for all countries — Apple itself also provides different services in each country, the list of which you can see here.

Things to do before changing regions

• Cancel all subscriptions. Because there may be differences in the services provided in the new region. If you feel it is suitable, then you can resubscribe when you have changed regions.
• Spend your balance on your Apple ID.
• Download apps or media (music, movies, TV, and more). Because some of the types of content you currently have may not be available in the new region.
• Have a valid payment method in the new region later.
