Just a reminder to anyone who hasn’t changed their country account yet.

I recently wrote that Apple from Russia turned out to be an extremely painful exit for its users, as predicted. This neutral situation, in fact, rests on just two pillars. One thing is certain: Apple will not be able to block its devices in Russia. But in other things to doubt – Necessarily.

The work, availability, usefulness of the App Store and, in general, all paid Apple services in Russia are ensured only two ways to deposit money to the account of the Russian account: the balance of the mobile number of the operator MTS And Beeline.

If financial transactions result in further European and/or US sanctions lists, the possibility of such deposits will be closed within one or two days.

For example, the significance of Canada was sentenced against all the main actors in Russia in general. Apparently, this did not affect the crediting of the payment from the SIM cards. But there are no guarantees that the same or probable decision will not be adopted tomorrow, in a week, in a month in some other package – already in Europe and the USA.

Therefore, the owners of Russian Apple IDs keep their nose to the wind. Suddenly without services, subscriptions and the familiar functionality of the Apple ecosystem, deposit money into your Apple ID account in reserve.

Don’t just rely on the “Mobile phone” payment method in your account. It will stop working if circumstances are met, and with the onset of natural debiting, you may be limited with “debt” – the inability to download even free applications in the App Store, the lack of a high subscription rate, the inability to access data and other inconveniences.

1. Read the cost of all Apple and App Store subscriptions. Open on iPhone or iPad Settings → Apple ID account → Subscriptions. The same menu is in the App Store app: Account → Subscriptions.

2. Positive balance of the Apple ID amount calculated for 2 months of subscription costs. This is enough to backup data and photos, change the country account, and so on. Personally, I play with the expectation of six months in advance, but for most this is too much too much.

Let me remind you, here is the full content of how to replenish the balance of an Apple ID account in Russia after acceptance:

To the point: how Apple subscriptions are paid and replenished in the App Store in 2023. All work tasks

3. Make reserved activation of all data accesses in Apple ecosystems. Just in case. This is a long and multi-stage process, so it is recommended to go to this rubricator article.

If you don’t want to count on the best and have a foreign bank card, then here is a guide to changing the country of your Apple ID account:

Forewarned – armed. All the best and have a great week.
