    I'd check your VPN is actually connected and working. I just installed the app, created an account, and tried to stream. Got told I wasn't in the UK, so set my VPN to the UK and it worked fine.

    Your Google account (for the Play store) is still connected to the Irish store - create a new account using the VPN or change your country settings on your Google account to the UK.

    How would I change the google play store please

    My solution is far easier than trying to blag a google account in another country. Just sideload the ITV Hub app (I gave you one method, but it could be found multiple ways) then use it with a VPN.

    Bit of a pain to update each time though as the uk streaming apps usually stop working on older versions.

    You can change the store location pretty easily: https://support.google.com/googleplay/answer/7431675?hl=en (best to change the location while on a UK IP) or just setup a new account which takes all of 3 seconds.

    Is that how you do it? Personally, I wouldn't change the region of my primary account.

    You can download apps from websites if you can't see them in the store such as https://apkpure.com/itv-hub/air.ITVMobilePlayer

    I use a dns service on my s8 phone and downloaded the apps from non play store sources but neither of them will work - the iplayer or the itv hub.

    I have no problem with a VPN, and I use Aptoide for installing apps that are region locked. Aptoide also tells you when there is an update to an app, which is handy.

    With the vpn I presume you have to switch over and back when accessing different services?
