I have a bank app from my homecountry which i cant update or download in a new phone in thailand as Google play says "the app is not available in your region" ,i tried with a vpn and still cant on Google play ,how to do,any ideas?

Change the region in the phone settings to the country. In iPhones it also has to be done in the App Store, so probably the same thing for android? So that would be changing the region in two different settings on the phone.

You wait until the banking app suggests the update, which gives 2 choices ..... update or more information.

The 'more information' option takes you to the update page and you can update.

The 'update' option usually fails.

Change your phone setting to the correct region

Changing the region in Android can lead to a long lock out period before being able to change regions again...so be very careful.
