As already reported to the Proz.com staff, the Proz app (iphone, for sure) is not available in some countries, like Italy.

Could someone give an answer about when it will be available again?

It is a disadvantage for many of us.

Thanks and regards

I don't use ProZ.com official app. But if this is just geo-blocking nonsense, you can easily bypass it with a VPN.

I have a similar issue on Android, though a bit different Aug 11, 2023

I use Android, and on Google Play Store this app isn't available for my device due to the app having been developed for older Android versions. This is particularly annoying because I received an e-mail about the app, like why send me an e-mail if the app hasn't been updated for the last 5 years?

Agree Jan 3

Also says on my Android it's built for an older version of Android. As I'm just getting started it I find this a bit frustrating / off-putting. 😔

app not available in some region (iPhone). Mar 5

I searched on every forum on internet and eventually end up fixing this by attempting to fix the "This app is currently not available in your country or region" message on your iPhone, but here are a few important points to consider it:-
1. Respecting App Store policies:- Bypassing App Store restrictions to access unavailable apps might violate Apple's terms of service and could potentially harm your device or data.

I searched on every forum on internet and eventually end up fixing this by attempting to fix the "This app is currently not available in your country or region" message on your iPhone, but here are a few important points to consider it:-
1. Respecting App Store policies:- Bypassing App Store restrictions to access unavailable apps might violate Apple's terms of service and could potentially harm your device or data.
2. Potential risks:- Modifying your device or account to access geo-restricted apps can involve technical steps that carry inherent risks, and might expose you to malware or compromise your device's security.
Some alternative solutions you can solve it:-
-Search for alternative apps:- Look for similar apps that are available in your App Store region. You might find apps with comparable features that fulfill your needs.
-Check the app developer's website:- The app developer's website might offer information about regional availability or suggest alternative solutions.
-Contact the app developer:- You can directly contact the app developer to inquire about their plans for releasing the app in your region. More details instruction below.
