How to get app to recognise the country i'm in now

[22fab3cjjcemmufmnnsu]

The app incorrectly thinks I am in Malaysia (I am in Australia but was in Malaysia for a couple of hours due to travel). My account is set up to be for Australia and so now it won't let me log into/use the app anymore. How do I get my phone/the app to recognise I'm back in Australia?

Hey there,

Thanks for reaching out.

You can update your account's country setting at https://www.spotify.com/account/profile/ 🙂

Let me know how ti goes!

Thanks for the reply, however my account correctly thinks i am in Australia. So this does not solve my problem and i still can't access the Spotify on my phone through the app 😞 I've tried uninstalling the app to see if it now recognises that i am in Australia but no difference.

Hey @22fab3cjjcemmufmnnsu,

What error message are you getting and is it present only on the mobile app?

Make sure you're not using any VPN services and, just in case - double-check if the country settings are correctly set by following the steps here.
We'll be on the lookout for your reply 🙂
