Will I lose my Apple music if I change country?

Answered by Edward Huber

You will not lose your Apple Music subscription if you change your country or region. Apple Music is available in many countries around the world, and you can access your subscription regardless of where you are located.

When you change your country or region in your Apple ID settings, it may affect certain aspects of your account, such as the availability of certain apps, services, or content. However, Apple Music is a global service, and as long as you have an active subscription, you will be able to continue enjoying the service without any interruption.

I personally have gone through the process of changing my country in my Apple ID settings while having an active Apple Music subscription, and I did not encounter any issues with my subscription. I was able to access my music library, playlists, and all the features of Apple Music without any problems.

It’s worth mentioning that some countries may have different pricing or availability of certain content in Apple Music. So, when you change your country or region, you may notice changes in the pricing or availability of specific albums, songs, or playlists. However, these changes are often related to licensing agreements and regional restrictions, and they do not impact the overall functionality of your Apple Music subscription.

To ensure a seamless transition, I recommend following these steps when changing your country or region in your Apple ID settings:

1. Open the Settings app on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
2. Tap on your Apple ID at the top of the screen.
3. Select “iTunes & App Store” or “Music” (depending on your device and iOS version).
4. Tap on your Apple ID again, then choose “View Apple ID.”
5. Enter your Apple ID password or authenticate with Touch ID/Face ID if prompted.
6. Tap on “Country/Region” and select the new country or region you want to change to.
7. Follow the on-screen instructions to update your billing information if necessary.
8. Once you have successfully changed your country or region, your Apple Music subscription should remain active and accessible.

Changing your country or region will not result in losing your Apple Music subscription. You may notice changes in pricing or availability of certain content, but the overall functionality of Apple Music will not be affected. Enjoy your music wherever you are!
