PS. Select "none" as the payment method. If the "None" option for Apple ID payment does not appear on your iPhone you have an outstanding balance (money) or active subscriptions, being part of a Family Sharing group, changing your Apple ID country or region may not be possible in this case!

Hey guys, if you can't choose "none" in the payment option, there is an easy way to fix that. Instead of choosing United States, choose "Canada". There, you will be able to press none. But ofc, the other steps you put region to united states and language to English US and everything will work (even if you're app store is canada) :P Merci pour la vidéo bg
Apple intelligence was one of the main reasons why I wanted to buy the iPhone 15 pro. I bought it today, was super excited about the new feature that I could finally use and in the end, it isnt even available in Europe. Was also my fault since I did not check everything beforehand. Merci pour la vidéo, tu m'as sauvé!
It probably won’t be fully perfected until the next iPhone is released, I bought the 16 pro max mainly for the battery which is excellent so far, AI is available on android devices but I’m unfortunately tied in to the apple ecosystem, AirPods, Apple Watch, MacBook etc… I use my my galaxy phone which has Gemini sometimes, I suppose when it comes to apple nowadays but what you have in your hands and not what’s promised, AI will struggle with only 8gs of Ram anyway, the next iPhone will supposedly have 12gs of ram and a much better refresh rate
@@benwade7419 Gemini is not that great either. Lots of bugs still there. For example, it doesnt undserstand if I want to cast something to the chromecast, but instead gives me an explanation of what casting to chromecast is. Really odd. Normal google assistant works flawlessly. Just switched to iphone, really want to try this out.
This worked for me: - Change region and language to English (US) - Change Apple ID country to CANADA, so I can choose payment method "none" - Register at apple developer's website (free). Now the Beta update showed up. Only this worked.
Just can't wait for a class action lawsuit from users of iPhone 16 etc who bought the phone outside US on pretext the Apple AI will work, but they didn't get it from the start. This is plain manipulation of the customer who wouldn't buy the latest phone if the feature was not available.
But if you select payment method 'none', and a different country, don't you lose the ability to apple pay and to use country specific applications? For example, I use an app to pay parking tickets in my country that's not available in the Canada store.
Do you happen to know a workaround if you use an apple subscription? I am subscribed to icloud storage. Could I move my account store to America, get apple intelligence, and later on take it back?
Hello, If I'm from Europe and want to purchase Macbook M4 Pro - will I be able to access Apple Inteligence on my Mac? or is it more complicated/not possible?
You need to wait until your subscription fully expire. For example, when you cancel it, you can still use it until some date. Alternatively, you can create a second Apple ID (US) and use it to log in the app store. That way you don’t have to wait until your subscription fully expire
I'm not sure if it helps, but I had an active Disney subscription that I tried to cancel via the settings. However, when I did this, nothing happened, just like you mentioned. Try canceling the subscription via the Apple Store app. It worked for me right away, and I was able to change the store region in no time.
Nothing in my case! BTW i added American pay Pal and now i am paying Apple Music and Apple Services cheaper than in EU because in the US it’s cheaper 😅😅😅
Thank you! Yes, you have to register in Canada to choose "none" under payment method. One more tip: I had to reset my network settings and restart the phone for apple intelligence to download and start working. Before this step, I was getting "connect to wifi to download Siri" error.
You mentioned Apple subscriptions, does it mean that it only applies to Apple per se or also other apps subscribed via the Apple Store (eg. Lightroom app…) cheers!
Thanks buddy - Spent a long time trying other methods - This one worked! Further question - After setting it up, can we switch back to the original settings or do we need to keep these?
does this still work after i update my iphone to ios 18.1, because i followed everything but the apple intelligence bar doesnt show up, or do i have to wait a few hours

Salut, am niste intrebari.. am 2 subscriptii active, dar le-am "inchis", insa ele inca sunt active pana la data de expirare. Totui, nu ma lasa sa selectez "none" la Payment method, ai vreo idee?
Super important question. Say you do this method, can you add Apple gift cards to your account and pay for iCloud storage / apps? If this can be done it would be great.
You can pay with gift cards, but only issued for the US. For example, if I will try to enter a gift card code for French App Store - 25€ , it will not add money 💰
Whenever I go to select a state / province the pop-up box just seems to crash. Am I doing something wrong or is there any country where this is available and province is not asked for?
You can buy Apple Music subscription in your American account but it will not sync your library. You will have to manually add your songs :( BTW: it’s funny apple gave me 3 months of free apple music when i changed my app store account to US 🤣🤣🤣

Hello, If I'm from Europe and want to purchase Macbook M4 Pro - will I be able to access Apple Inteligence on my Mac? or is it more complicated/not possible?
Apple Intelligence on MacOS is not restricted in the EU ;) No problem. Just iOS.
Although I cancelled Apple Music subscription it still says ‘you have to cancel Apple Music subscription in order to change stores’
You need to wait until your subscription fully expire.
For example, when you cancel it, you can still use it until some date. Alternatively, you can create a second Apple ID (US) and use it to log in the app store. That way you don’t have to wait until your subscription fully expire

You can just to to general -> language and region and then change the region. You can install ai and then you can just change the region back
Language needs to be English btw
No, the ai doesnt work if you change it
In the UE region, what truly matters is the app store account. They no longer require changing the region to the US.
@@ArthurBrassart idk, it worked for me
Thank you my friend.
