Hello all techies on MB. I want to try Threads, but the app isn’t released in Sweden yet. I tried downloading it using a VPN client but I still hit the wall saying it’s not accessible in my area. What I’m a doing wrong?

@ndreas VPN will not help, as you're still connected to your App Store, in your country. It is not a location issue, but an App Store one. The way around it (iOS) is having an account on a different App Store, in a country where the app was released.

@ndreas if iPhone, you will likely need an AppStore account that is not from an EU country. No need to VPN stuff around.
