Trying to get the Alexa App from the UK store, from Ireland
Hi, I have enabled my, brand new, Echo Dot gen 2, but I am having great difficulty getting the app. Because the Dot is not set up for Ireland, I had to get it from the UK, the app is not available in the Irish app store. So, although I know it is possible, can anyone talk me through the easiest way to get the app? I know how to change the country settings in settings/iTunes/App store, but don't know about credit card and address info. Do I need to set up a new apple ID? I only want to get a free app. If anyone has done this and knows the easiest way, please tell me!!!

Hi Sandra. Personally I think the easiest way is to set up a new Apple ID. When you make it, just put that you're from the UK. Put in an address that you know exists in the UK and don't worry about credit card information. Hope this helps.

Re: Trying to get the Alexa App from the UK store, from Ireland
thank you! However, a small problem: where do I go to set up a new Apple ID using my iPhone? I have taken a look in iCloud, but can't find an option there, unless, I have to sign out of the existing one first?

Yes, you do have to sign out of your current Apple ID first, then you can make your new Apple ID.
