A bit off topic, but does anyone know how "EU" only features/changes are determined? I'm Canadian by citizenship but live in Europe. My Apple account is still tied to Canada mainly due to having my Canadian bank/credit cards tied to that account. Would I need to officially change countries? Start a new Apple account? Does it matter that my phone was purchased in Canada? I'm hoping that it might be tied to the SIM card somehow, since I have a European carrier, obviously.
- dannymoerkerke 3y agoIt is tied to your SIM card so when in the EU you should get the European "features".
- yogorenapan 3y agoWhat if you don’t have a SIM card?
- gorbypark 3y agoI think this information might be incorrect. I upgraded to 17.4 on an iPhone purchased in Canada, with an Apple account based in Canada but with a EU SIM card and being physically located in the EU and didn't get the "pick a browser" dialog when opening Safari. I think it might not be SIM based after all. The only possible thing I could think of is that I have an activated but turned off eSIM from Canada on the phone as well. The physical SIM is EU, though (and is what is turned on and connected to the towers).
- gorbypark 3y agoThat's great news, thanks!
