Here’s one for the tech geeks.
iPad and iPhone which are both Oz purchased won’t let me download the BBC iPlayer app. Tried VPN and it makes no difference. Looks like the devices might be geo locked in some way.
Anyone?

    Could be is linked to your Apple ID / App Store settings.

    Try creating a uk based Apple ID if you can be arsed?

    It’s something like this, but I can’t remember.

    Really helpful I know!!

      Yeh I reckon it’s that. Wondering if it’s possible to change location on it first. I’ll probably lose everything on it knowing my luck.

      Non of these problems on my android or laptop may I add. Apple is such a pile of steaming shit.

        Can’t get my head round it. What’s there to fucking gain from making it purposely unusable?

          Millsy Freezing your bollocks off, with no access to iPlayer. Welcome home Derms!

          And a pint of lager now costs £8.50.

          Or winning as I like to call it.

            I’ve spent hours trying to Google and find how you can, or if it’s possible to change the location on the iPad. Steam literally coming out of my ears.
            On Google play you just go into location and change it. FFS. Anyone know?

              Smallman1 was nicely reassured by prices at the Waterloo Tap. Bargain boozer.

              Lol at Derms swanning around the country in his cargo shorts, singlet and thongs fewming at literally everything.

              Can we get a vlog of some sort mate? Happy to pay a subscription for such entertainment

                Millsy Can we get a vlog of some sort mate?

                No, because he can’t work his Apple devices!

                Cankles-McJeggings It can be done but it’s seriously not worth it. You’ll have to spend any balance remaining on your Apple ID, cancel your subscriptions, add a new payment method and THEN redownload your apps, music, movies etc etc. 😅 Hence why I have never and will never own an iPhone or iPad.

                  yeh I had a feeling that would be the case. They can fuck off. It’s only for the kids anyway.

                  I was considering doing a foot vlog of all the matches I’m going actually. Maybe I’ll add in some extras!

                  Sorted.

                  So heres the way to change your region on an iPad. I finally did it.
                  Bear in mind as sm001 said you do have to spend your balance. Also you need a credit card valid in the country you are changing to. Luckily I did and had no money in my balance.

                  1. Open the Settings app.
                  2. Tap your name, then tap Media & Purchases.
                  3. Tap View Account.
                  4. Tap Country/Region.
                  5. Tap Change Country or Region.
                  6. Tap your new country or region, then review the Terms & Conditions.
                  7. Tap Agree in the top right-hand corner, then tap Agree again to confirm.
                  8. Select a payment method and enter your new payment information and billing address, then tap Next. You must enter a valid payment method for your new country or region.
