Step 1: Understand the Source of Currency Settings
Brawl Stars itself does not directly control currency settings; these are handled by the platform you use, such as Google Play Store for Android devices or the Apple App Store for iOS devices. The currency you see in Brawl Stars is tied to your store’s account settings.
Step 2: Change Your Store’s Country Settings
To change the currency, you need to modify the country setting in your app store. Below are the steps for both Android and iOS:
For Android Users:
- Open the Google Play Store app.
- Tap the Menu icon and go to ‘Account’.
- Under ‘Preferences,’ you will find ‘Country and profiles’. Here you can see the current country that Google has associated with your account.
- If you have recently moved to a new country, you should have the option to create a new profile linked to the new country. Select the country, add a payment method native to your new location, and follow the instructions to create a new profile.
For iOS Users:
- Open the Settings app and go to ‘iTunes & App Store’.
- Tap on your Apple ID, then tap ‘View Apple ID’. You might need to sign in with your Apple ID.
- Tap ‘Country/Region’, then ‘Change Country or Region’.
- Choose the new country or region, agree to the terms and conditions, and then follow the on-screen instructions to change your account settings. You will need to provide a payment method and billing address that matches your new country or region.
Step 3: Restart Brawl Stars
After changing your country settings in the Google Play Store or Apple App Store, restart the Brawl Stars app. You should now see the in-app purchases displayed in your new local currency.
Step 4: Consider the Implications
Keep in mind that changing your app store’s country not only affects the currency in Brawl Stars but also in other apps. This could affect your access to some apps or content that might not be available in your new region. Additionally, there may be legal and tax implications depending on your new location.
As you can see, this process is relatively simple but does come with broader implications for your app usage. Always ensure that you understand these implications and prepare the necessary details like a valid payment method for the new country. By following these steps, you can enjoy Brawl Stars and other apps with your preferred currency setting, making in-app purchases straightforward and stress-free.
