How to Open Spotify Account on Android
- Visit APKpure.com and search for Spotify
- Download the APK then Install it
- Download a VPN and connect to a UK server (Check our list of best VPNs for Android here)
- Go to Spotify.com and choose “Create account” and choose your preferred plan (either the Free version or Premium.)
- Once you’ve finished account creation, you can now stream music for free on Spotify
NB: If you’re logged out after sometime, always switch on your VPN then login again and you’ll be able to stream without any problems
How to Open Spotify Account on iOS
For iOS, you’ll have to change your Apple ID location first because Apple doesn’t allow download of apps from outside the App store.
- Open the Settings app and Tap your name to reveal your Apple ID
- Tap on “iTunes & App Store” then tap on Your Apple ID and choose “view ID”
- Authorize with either FaceID or Touch ID to view ID
- Tap on Country/Region then wait for some time for the next step
- Select “Change Country & Region” on the next screen
- Choose a country where Spotify is available – we recommend the US or UK
- Check the ‘Agree to the “Terms Of Service” option
- On the next page, you’ll have to update payment information. Simply leave it to “None” and proceed to the next page
- The next page will ask about your ‘Billing Address.’ To bypass this use a Fake address generator to create one and fill it there
- Follow the prompts and Go to the App Store and search for Spotify. You’ll now be able to see Spotify and download it
- To create an account, ensure you have a VPN turned on first to the previous chosen location (UK or US)
When logged out after 14 days, just turn your VPN back on and login again.
