If you search for "Binance" on your iPhone and find nothing, or if clicking a "View in App Store" link results in the pop-up "This app is not available in your country or region" — the root cause is simple: your current Apple ID is set to a region where Binance is not listed. We recommend using the iOS redirect link provided on the Binance Official Website or clicking Binance Official App within this site. The full process is also documented in the iOS Installation Guide.
A: There are only two ways to solve "This App is Not Available in Your Region": 1) Switch your Apple ID to a supported region (such as Hong Kong, the UAE, or Singapore); or 2) Register a new overseas Apple ID and use it specifically for the App Store. Binance will never be searchable in the mainland China App Store.
First, Confirm if it is Truly a Regional Issue
Before switching regions, rule out these scenarios that look similar but aren't actually regional issues.
Scenario 1: Apple ID is Set to Mainland China
This is the most common cause. Check "Settings -> [Your Name] -> Media & Purchases -> View Account -> Country/Region". If it shows "Mainland China," this is the problem.
Scenario 2: Network Issues
In rare cases, connection errors to Apple's CDN can cause the App Store to show "Cannot Connect" or "Content Unavailable." This isn't a regional issue—try restarting your Wi-Fi or switching to cellular data.
Scenario 3: Outdated iOS Version
The Binance App requires iOS 13.0 or later. Devices on iOS 12 will see "This app requires a newer version of iOS" rather than a region error. Switching regions won't help here—you must upgrade your iOS or use a newer device.
Scenario 4: App Store Region Locked by Parental Controls
If "Settings -> Screen Time -> Content & Privacy Restrictions -> iTunes & App Store Purchases -> Restrictions" is enabled, certain apps based on country or age rating might be hidden. Check these settings first.
If you have ruled out the first three, then it is definitely a regional issue. Follow the steps below.
Where is Binance Available?
The table below shows the availability of the Binance App across various App Store regions as of April 2026. Note that App Store listings can change dynamically:
| Region | Can Download Binance from App Store? | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Mainland China | No | Delisted for many years |
| Hong Kong | Yes | Highly recommended target region |
| Taiwan | No | Currently unavailable |
| Macau | Yes | Shared with the HK region |
| Singapore | Yes | Available, but local users must use the local version |
| United States | Yes | Lists Binance.US (a separate entity, different from Binance Global) |
| United Kingdom | No | Currently unavailable |
| Japan | No | Currently unavailable |
| Canada | Yes | Partial availability |
| Australia | Yes | Available |
| UAE | Yes | Available |
| Brazil | Yes | Available |
| South Korea | No | Currently unavailable |
For users in mainland China, Hong Kong and the UAE are the best target regions. Hong Kong is close, addresses are easy to find, and the Chinese interface is fully supported. The UAE is where Binance's global headquarters is located, so the main version is always available there.
Warning: The US region is a trap. The "Binance.US" app in the US App Store is a separate subsidiary of Binance with limited features (no futures trading, fewer coins, and accounts are not shared with the main Binance site). If you want the global version of Binance, do not choose the US region.
Solution 1: Switch to a Hong Kong Apple ID
If you already have a Hong Kong Apple ID, simply switch to it in the App Store:
- Open the App Store.
- Tap the profile icon in the top right -> Scroll to the bottom and tap "Sign Out" (in red).
- Tap the profile icon again -> Enter your Hong Kong Apple ID email and password to sign in.
- On the first login, a "Welcome to the App Store" or "Review Account" prompt may appear. You must complete the "Review" process, choosing "None" for the payment method.
- Once finished, return to the App Store home page and search for "Binance."
Note: Only switch the App Store account, not iCloud. Keep your iCloud account as is to preserve your photos, notes, and other data.
Solution 2: Create a New Overseas Apple ID
If you don't have an overseas Apple ID yet, follow these steps to create a Hong Kong one:
- Sign out of your current App Store account (as described above).
- Tap the profile icon -> "Create New Apple ID."
- Select "Hong Kong" as the country.
- Use a fresh email address that has never been registered as an Apple ID (Gmail is recommended).
- Choose a password (at least 8 characters, including upper/lowercase letters and numbers).
- Set a birth date that makes you an adult (e.g., 1990).
- You can use your +86 mobile number for verification.
- Payment method MUST be set to "None"—this is the most critical step.
- Enter any valid-looking Hong Kong address (e.g., "99 Queen's Road Central, Hong Kong").
- Complete both the email and SMS verification codes.
Once created, log in to the App Store with the new ID and download "Binance."

Solution 3: Change the Region of Your Existing Primary ID
This method involves changing the region of your current mainland China Apple ID to Hong Kong. This is suitable for users who want to migrate completely to the Hong Kong region.
The following prerequisites must be met:
- No active subscriptions in the China region (Apple Music, iCloud+, or any auto-renewing apps).
- Account balance must be zero (even 0.01 CNY will block the change).
- No outstanding orders.
Once met, go to "Settings -> [Your Name] -> Media & Purchases -> View Account -> Country/Region -> Change Country or Region -> Hong Kong."
The Downside: You will no longer be able to update apps exclusive to the China App Store (such as certain local banking, government, or medical apps). Therefore, we do not recommend this for most users. The multi-account approach (Solution 2) is much more stable.
Solution 4: Install Beta via TestFlight (Not Recommended)
At times, Binance invites users to test beta versions via Apple TestFlight. Technically, TestFlight can bypass App Store regional restrictions—if you have an invitation link, you can install the beta.
However, we strongly discourage this path:
- TestFlight slots are limited, and Binance rarely opens them to the general public for long periods.
- Beta versions are unstable and may crash or be forced offline.
- Many "Free TestFlight invitation codes" found online are phishing scams designed to trick you into installing fake apps.
If you see a tutorial suggesting you click a random link for a TestFlight invitation code, ignore it entirely.
Solution Comparison
| Solution | Best For | Estimated Time | Risk |
|---|---|---|---|
| Existing HK ID | Users who already have one | 3 Minutes | Near zero |
| New HK ID | Users without an overseas ID | 10-15 Minutes | Minor verification delays |
| Change Primary ID | Users migrating completely | 5 Minutes | Limited China app updates |
| TestFlight | Users with official invites | 5 Minutes | Unstable, use with caution |
For the vast majority of users, we recommend Solution 2: "Create a New Overseas Apple ID." This is an Apple-supported method for using multiple accounts and has zero impact on your local apps.
What if I Still Can't Find Binance After Switching?
If you are certain your Apple ID is set to Hong Kong but searching for "Binance" yields no results, try the following:
A: Common reasons why a Hong Kong ID still can't find Binance:
- Initial "Review Account" not completed: Go to App Store -> Profile -> Review Account and complete the setup.
- App Store Cache Refresh: Go to "Settings -> General -> iPhone Storage -> App Store -> Offload App -> Reinstall App" to clear the cache (rarely needed).
- Region Mismatch: Double-check your region under "Settings -> Media & Purchases -> View Account -> Country/Region."
- System Language/Region Interference: Go to "Settings -> General -> Language & Region" and set the "Region" to "Hong Kong SAR." This may be necessary on some older iOS versions.
After checking these, restart your iPhone and search the App Store again. In 99% of cases, the app will appear.
FAQ
Q: Is there a difference between "This App is Not Available in Your Region" and "This App is No Longer Available"?
A: Yes. The former means "the app is not listed in your current Apple ID region" and can be fixed by switching regions. The latter means "the app has been delisted from the App Store worldwide" and cannot be fixed by switching regions. For Binance, it is almost always the former.
Q: If I switch back to the China region after a while, will my original data be lost?
A: No. Your "Purchased" items are tied to your Apple ID, not your device's current region. When you switch back to your China ID, all your previously downloaded apps will still be in your "Purchased" list and can be re-downloaded.
Q: I am using an iPad. Is the process the same?
A: Exactly the same. iPadOS uses the same Apple ID system as iOS, so the regional rules are identical. If you install Binance on your iPhone with a HK ID, it will sync automatically to your iPad when you use the same ID.
Q: Can I use Family Sharing to let other members download Binance?
A: No. Family Sharing does not allow cross-region app sharing—all members must have Apple IDs in the same region. If you are the only one who needs Binance, use a separate overseas ID for yourself.
Q: Can I update the app after downloading it with a Hong Kong ID?
A: Yes. Whenever Binance releases an update, it will appear in the "Updates" tab of the App Store. However, you must be logged into the Hong Kong ID at that time—if you have switched back to your China ID, the update will be blocked until you switch back.
Q: Will my iCloud backup data disappear after switching regions?
A: No. iCloud backups are completely independent of App Store regions. They are an attribute of your iCloud account. As long as you don't change your iCloud account, your backup data remains intact.
