    why bother, download the Tube Mate app for free it allows you to download YouTube videos and convert to MP3 ,etc if necessary

    You can watch videos without ads on any device (smart TV, android, ios, Windows, etc). Background playback. YouTube music. It's less than €2...

    OK I got sorted and managed to subscribe via India (using HOLA VPN)

    I set up a family account and both myself and OH are up and running.

    One thing I noticed is that I'm still seeing ads on the you tube app or youtube website.

    Just wanted to check if others are experiencing the same.

    The music app is working fine (and that's the main thing) but I'd be interested to hear back from others as to this behaviour

    Just wanted to clarify that I subscriped to the YouTube Music Subscription , not 100% sure if the You Tube Premium is slightly different etc...

    Had this myself, turned out I wasn't subscribed to YouTube premium itself, just the music end of things.

    Simple test is to see if it says premium on your YouTube app.

    That's it 100%.

    I didnt subscribe to YouTube Premium but the YouTube Music App instead.

    If anyone is interested its - 149 Rupees a month ~1.90 euro for Family plan.

    I'm not too bothered about having YouTube Premium to be honest - I only wanted a new music app to replace my deezer (after my year ran out).

    Thanks for confirming

    Maybe get your OH to sign up for the Family account and then invite you as a member (then cancel your own version)

    i set this up earlier today and invited 5 family members and all successfully switched to premium, i spoke a friend of mine through the whole process however, he's having a issue when he sends out invites, they all get an error saying

    "Trouble joining family group, looks like you're in a different country than the family manager"

    Anyone know a way to overcome this?

    Do you use the indian address as billing address in your google account?! Seems like that would fail...? Have singed up with a revolut card as payment

    I have a separate payments profile for YouTube premium which has the Indian address but it's been pending a few days. This is the first time its trying to take payment, reckon it will work? I'm using my revolut card.

    Ok i got it to work.

    Changed my location to India and went to the desktop site of manage memberships and i saw how i could update it to family and i added accounts to family for an extra 75c per month. Handy

    Managed to get it renewed manually. Charged me twice though for some reason.

    First time I done it through the app and payment went through but still kept telling me to upgrade.

    Second time I done it through the browser and it worked fine.

    Signed up yesterday with a family account. Having issues adding family members. I get this error: Problem while joining family group
    Looks like you're in a different country from the family manager.
    Did anyone solve this issue?

    Make sure you family members are in the same location as the lead member.

    In my example I signed up in India. So make sure your family sign up using VPN from same location.
