How to Install the Binance App on Apple iPhone? Complete iOS Download Guide
Downloading the Binance app on an iPhone is not the same as on Android; you cannot download the APK directly. You need to search for and download it in the App Store by switching to an overseas Apple ID. First, complete your registration on the Binance official website, and then download the Binance official app. For detailed iOS installation steps, please refer to the iOS installation guide.
Why Can't Binance Be Found in the China App Store?
Apple manages the listing of apps in the App Store according to the laws and regulations of each country. Due to policies related to cryptocurrencies, the China App Store has removed most cryptocurrency exchange apps, including Binance. However, the Binance app can still be downloaded normally in the App Stores of regions such as the United States, Japan, Hong Kong, etc.
Detailed iOS Installation Steps
Step 1: Prepare an Overseas Apple ID
You need an Apple ID from a region outside of mainland China. The following regions are recommended:
- US Region: The most complete selection of apps, fastest updates
- Japan Region: Simple registration, no credit card required
- Hong Kong Region: Interface has Chinese, convenient to operate
If you do not have an overseas Apple ID, you can use a new email address to register one on Apple's official website. When registering, select the corresponding country/region, and you can search online for a local address to fill in.
Step 2: Switch Apple ID on Your iPhone
- Open "Settings"
- Tap your Apple ID profile picture at the very top
- Scroll down and tap "Media & Purchases"
- Tap "Sign Out"
- Tap "Media & Purchases" again
- Select "Not [Your Name]?"
- Enter the overseas Apple ID and password you prepared to log in
Step 3: Search and Download in the App Store
After successfully switching:
- Open the App Store
- Search for "Binance"
- Find the official app (yellow icon, developer is Binance Inc.)
- Tap "Get" to download and install
If prompted to verify a payment method, simply select "None".
Step 4: Switch Back to Your Original Apple ID
After the download and installation are complete, follow the same steps to sign out of the overseas Apple ID and switch back to your own original Apple ID. The already installed Binance app will not be deleted and can be used normally.
Things to Note
- Do not switch in iCloud settings: You only need to switch in "Media & Purchases". Do not switch your iCloud account, otherwise you may lose your iCloud data
- App Updates: When updating the Binance app in the future, you will need to switch back to the overseas Apple ID again
- Face ID / Touch ID: After installation is complete, you can set up biometric login within the Binance app
Frequently Asked Questions
What if the App Store turns into English after switching Apple ID?
This is a normal phenomenon. After switching to the US region, the App Store interface will become English. After downloading the Binance app and switching back to your original ID, the App Store interface will revert to Chinese.
It prompts "Cannot Connect to App Store" when downloading?
Check if your network connection is normal. If you cannot download via WiFi, you can try switching to cellular data. Some regions may require a good network environment.
Can I use TestFlight to install it?
Binance occasionally releases beta versions via TestFlight, but it is not recommended for regular users to use the TestFlight version, as there may be stability issues. It is recommended to install via the official version in the App Store.
Summary
The core of installing the Binance app on an iPhone is switching to an overseas Apple ID. The entire process takes about 5-10 minutes and the operation is not complicated. Remember to switch back to your original ID after installation is complete to avoid affecting the use of other apps.
