Premium user in Korea. after Factory Reset - can no longer download the phone app

I pay for Spotify Premium and I live in South Korea.

The mobile phone app was working perfectly until I had to do a Factory Reset on my phone (Galaxy S3)
 and now when I try to download the app it's saying that the app is unavailable to me.

 

Please help

Hey! Welcome to the community 🙂 

 

You won't be able to get it through google play, since you are outside of a Spotify launch country. 

However, you might be able to download and install manually by pointing your mobile browser to m.spotify.com and following the steps in install manually.

Thanks so much!!!

Hey, I'm having a similar problem to the one initially posted here. I just picked up a Galaxy S3 in South Korea, and when I follow the instructions you posted here, I get this screen on my phone (attatched image). Any ideas on what to do? I'd love to keep paying for an using Spotify, so if there's a way that I can, I will.Screenshot_2013-10-11-00-04-09.png


The mobile site is broken but I escalated this yesterday and it should be fixed pretty quickly.

Ooohh, good to know. I hope I'm able to get it installed on my korean phone. That would make life just dandy. 🙂

Hopefully you'll soon be rocking 🙂
