Apple One signed up with an Indian account, can not be family shared with AU account. The only thing that can be shared with AU account is iCloud storage.

It's a good deal for Apple TV / non Apple/ iPhone users to be able to access Apple Music, Apple Arcade, and Apple TV Plus, while also being able to share iCloud plus storage with their AU account.

Apple one is not available in Türkiye

  1. Set up an Indian Apple ID using your AU number to verify.

  2. Login into an iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, using an Indian Apple ID.

  3. Buy Apple gift cards from Amazon India using your AU amazon account. Enter an Indian address (make sure indian address is selected, otherwise gift cards will show as out of stock) and use a virtual card from Wise.

  4. Sign up to Apple One via settings.

  5. Login on your Apple TV as a second account and enjoy all the services for a lesser price.

You can also share the iCloud store with your AU Apple ID via Family Sharing.

    So that's how you buy in India Amazon. You have to buy a Gift card?

    • Pricebeat on 11/01/2023 - 10:12

      You can buy apple gift cards straight from Amazon India using any fee free card.

      • kaleidoscope on 11/01/2023 - 16:07

        but make sure you don't ship the gc to the fake address

      Not sure about Apple but on YouTube you could keep disliking the recommendations until it slows down

      • Oneirics on 12/01/2023 - 09:35

        But YouTube would check your location and knowing you're not in India right?

  • cerealsmok3r on 11/01/2023 - 10:22

    thanks for sharing op!! I thought the price of a slot was closer to what you see in classified then i realised its for the entire family subscription. good value

    • Pricebeat on 11/01/2023 - 10:23

      Beware that you can’t share it with Aussie account. Everyone will have to have an Indian Apple ID. Useful for those with Apple TV.

      • cerealsmok3r on 11/01/2023 - 10:25

        Thanks for the heads up - do you know if this will affect how it handles the automatic backup options and if this is easy to switch between the IDs of different regions?

        • Pricebeat on 11/01/2023 - 10:28

          On Apple TV you can switch pretty easily. On iPhone you will have to sign out and in on the purchases section manually every time. But your default ID will automatically get signed when going back.

          • Ccrew on 11/01/2023 - 11:39

            @Pricebeat: Every time you change the account you have to re enter credit cards detailed in your wallet app.

            • Pricebeat on 11/01/2023 - 11:40

              @Ccrew: Good thing, you are not changing the account. Just the “media and purchases” ID.

              • Ccrew on 12/01/2023 - 07:42

                @Pricebeat: Thanks. I didn’t know that now it is easier to update apps etc in different countries ID.

      • krouton24 on 11/01/2023 - 14:59

        Can I use the same Indian Apple ID on my iPad to play Apple Arcade if I keep my AU Apple ID signed into things like the App Store etc?

        • Pricebeat on 11/01/2023 - 15:01
          +1

          App store and Apple arcade login is connected to “media and purchases” so whatever ID you have signed into “media and purchases” will go on both.

  • Warlock on 11/01/2023 - 10:25

    Does the Indian Apple One Plus have the 2T bundle? I mean Apple One Plus premium?

    • Pricebeat on 11/01/2023 - 10:26

      Nope, they don’t have that tier because Apple hasn’t released Apple Fitness there yet.

    • GordianKnot on 11/01/2023 - 16:27

      According to this page (https://www.apple.com/ie/newsroom/2021/10/apple-one-premier-…) the 'Apple One Premier' product including 2TB and fitness+ is available in 21 countries (not all countries include News+ if that matters).

      The trick will be finding a country that is cheap and accepts gift cards…

        OK, maybe not Russia where App Store and iTunes purchases were turned off

        The Apple Brazil site has online gift cards listed and could be a go-er.

          +1

          Brazil is missing News+ even from premier.

          You gotta admit, Apple has done a good job at limiting the appeal for customers to buy from other regions. I’d love to pay $7/ month instead of $43/month, but I’m heavy in their ecosystem and stuck on the drug. Slot sharing and gift cards is the best way to go for me, as good as this deal will be for some people, nice one OP!

  • Seph on 11/01/2023 - 10:29

    Any way for this to work with an AU account? Any order alternatives for an Australian account besides paying the Australian tax?

      Discounted Apple gift cards and family sharing with other people is the only thing you can do on an AU account to lower the cost.

  • nomekop on 11/01/2023 - 10:31

    Are you sure you can use family share with accounts in different countries? I tried this before, but it was not allowed at the time. Is this a recent change?

      It can not be shared as mentioned in the first paragraph of the post. Just iCloud storage can be shared.

      • andresampras on 11/01/2023 - 12:58

        does that mean everything on my AU 'media & purchases' section will be inaccessible while I'm signed in to the indian account?

        I think this may be too much hassle for me, despite how cheap it is. Also India misses out on fitness+ and news+

    Thanks @Pricebeat this looks like a great deal that could save me ~$100/year!

    What would happen to all existing content stored on my current paid iCloud+ 2TB subscription?

    If I sign up to this deal with a new Indian Apple ID, can I share that new cheaper iCloud storage with my main AU Apple ID account plus the rest of my family, and by doing so can I safely cancel my existing $15/month iCloud+ with 2TB storage subscription, without losing all my family photos etc?

    Do we each need to manually transfer everything to over the new Indian account’s iCloud storage somehow?

    Can I also connect my non-Apple smart speakers (Amazon Echo Dot) to the new Indian account to stream from Apple Music?

    No one in my family uses Apple Music on our personal devices but we listen to it from two Echo Dot smart speakers in the house. Currently using the trial Apple Music subscription which expires next week.

  • pizzaofpeace on 18/04/2023 - 23:18

    Gave this a red hot go and this doesn't work. As a final hurdle, you have to add payment from an indian bank as a test payment, even with the gift card loaded up and with VPN in india (also tried without VPN).

    Tried selecting a random bank and it just takes you to the bank website. Good luck trying to add 100 rupees without one.

    EDIT - You can get the free trial on itunes and get the subscription. Will let you know how it pans out once the free trial ends…

        Looked up what you meant.

        When I originally signed up for the free apple music trial, I had some made up placeholder bank detail for an indian bank. I then cancelled the 'free trial' for the music subscription, removed the bull**** payment detail and then resubbed and paying using the giftcard.

        Seems to work for now…

  • xers on 30/05/2023 - 13:16

    Thanks OP. Went through all steps smoothly without being asked for payment details at all.

    And I know you said this is good for non-iPhone users only but I'm having no issues being logged in to the Indian account for Media and Purchases and stay logged in to my main Apple ID on my iPhone. The only problem I can foresee is some apps not being available on the Indian App store but so far I haven't encountered any yet.
