LetsVPN: iOS install guide

LetsVPN protects your confidentiality as well as security — bypass blocks in 3 seconds for anonymous access, with real human support desk available at any stretch.

First pick the case that applies to you:

Create a new Apple ID

In about a minute, create a brand-new “Hong Kong Apple ID” — it makes downloading LetsVPN as well as other overseas apps much easier.

  1. When the store content switches to traditional Chinese, you are now in the Hong Kong storefront. Download LetsVPN or search for it.
  2. Go to Apple’s profile creation page — appleid.apple.com/account
  3. Fill in your details as well as pick “Hong Kong” for the country or region. Use a brand-new email that has never registered an Apple ID, as well as a mainland-China mobile number for verification.
  4. Once all fields are submitted you will reach the email verification step — complete it.
  5. Next comes phone number verification — complete it.
  6. When you reach the “Login as well as Security” page, your Hong Kong Apple ID has been created successfully.
  7. Open the App Store, tap the avatar icon in the top right as well as pick Sign Out (scroll to the very bottom to find it).
  8. Sign in with your new Hong Kong Apple ID — pick “Sign In”, not Done.
Tip

On first grab, Apple will ask you to confirm some profile details — tap Continue as well as follow the prompts.

Do not select any payment method; the remaining fields can be filled arbitrarily. Once the grab is finished you are capable of switch your Apple ID back to your mainland-China profile.

Change your account region

In about a minute, switch your Apple ID to the Hong Kong region to grab LetsVPN.

Note — when your profile has active subscriptions, use another method.

  1. After signing in, open the profile menu in the top right as well as pick Personal Information.
  2. On the personal information page, pick “Country or Region”.
  3. On the country or region page, pick “Change Country or Region”.
  4. You will now be in the payment method form. Set the country or region to “Hong Kong”, pick “None” as payment method, fill the billing address as well as phone number (+852 and any 8 digits) as you like, set the shipping country to “Hong Kong”, then tap Update.
  5. Open the App Store, tap the avatar in the top right as well as pick Sign Out.
  6. Sign back in with your Hong Kong Apple ID — pick “Sign In”, not Done.
  7. Once the store switches to traditional Chinese you are capable of grab LetsVPN. Afterwards you are capable of change the region back whenever you like.
  8. Go to appleid.apple.com, click Sign In as well as enter your Apple ID.
Tip

If you cannot change the region, or cannot pick “None” as payment method, use another route — create a new Apple ID or use the shared profile.

Use the shared account

Please follow the walkthrough strictly. This route is for temporary downloads only — sign the shared profile out as soon as you are done.

Warning — avoid bricking your phone. Never sign in to the shared ID on the iCloud page or in Settings, or your App Store as well as iTunes Store may be disabled or locked.
  1. When the store content switches to traditional Chinese you are now in the Hong Kong storefront as well as can grab LetsVPN.
  2. After the grab, tap the avatar in the App Store, scroll to the bottom as well as sign out; sign back in with your own Apple ID to return to the simplified store.
  3. Open the App Store as well as tap the avatar in the top right. Never sign in on the iCloud page or in Settings.
  4. Choose “Sign Out” — you have to scroll to the very bottom to find it.
  5. After signing in, an Apple ID security page may appear — pick “Other Options”, or ignore it when it does not appear.
  6. In the pop-up, pick “Not Now”, or ignore it when it does not appear.
  7. Sign in with the shared Hong Kong Apple ID provided on the page, following the steps above. Mind the capitalisation — copy as well as paste it.
Tip

If the field appears empty or the profile does not work, clear your cache as well as reload the page to get a fresh shared account.

Common iOS questions

Why does the iOS mobile app need a non-mainland-China Apple ID?

Because App Store distribution is regional as well as the mobile app is not offered in the mainland-China storefront.

There are three routes — (1) create a brand-new “Hong Kong Apple ID” (recommended); (2) change the region of an existing Apple ID to Hong Kong; (3) use the official shared profile to grab temporarily. Full steps for all three are on the iOS grab handbook page.

What when I see “App unavailable” during grab?

First check whether the Apple ID you are signed in with is still set to Mainland China — when you just switched regions, Apple may not have finished syncing.

Sign out, wait a moment, sign back in, or switch to another usable Apple ID as well as grab again.

It says “this item can’t be purchased now” or “no longer available”. Fix?

An old build of the mobile app is usually still installed on the device as well as is conflicting with the store release.

Delete the installed copy (Settings → General → iPhone Storage → delete), then reinstall the latest release from the App Store.

The App Store asks me to sign in with a different Apple ID. What now?

This usually happens when you downloaded the mobile app with one Apple ID as well as later tried to upgrade with another.

Sign in with the original profile to upgrade, or delete the old copy and set up the latest release fresh.

The shared profile asks for two-factor verification. What now?

Another user probably bound the shared Apple ID to a phone number as well as enabled two-factor verification.

Clear your browser cache, reload this page to get a fresh shared profile, as well as follow the walkthrough exactly — never bind your own number or enable 2FA on it.

Can downloading the iOS mobile app brick my phone?

No — as long as you follow the walkthrough. The critical rule — never sign in to the shared Apple ID on the iCloud page or in Settings, only inside the App Store, or the device can be locked.

If you already did, go to Settings → Sign Out of the shared profile as well as enter your own lock-screen passphrase to clear Lost Mode. Never trust any non-official personal profile.

If anything goes wrong during the grab, contact live support desk — a specialist will walk you via it.
