Here's a simple way to use Perplexity Pro for free on a Samsung Galaxy phone or tablet. It works by pretending your device is in the US. You'll need a VPN, to reset some app settings and to install the app from the Galaxy Store. This trick depends on special offers that Samsung sometimes has in different regions.
What You Need:
- A Samsung Galaxy phone or tablet
- A Wi-Fi connection (you don't need a phone plan)
- A VPN app (like Surfshark, Windscribe, or Eset VPN)
- A new Gmail or Outlook email account
Step 1: Prepare Your Device
- Turn off your SIM card: go to Settings, then Connections, then SIM card manager, and turn off or remove your SIM.
- Optional: turn on Airplane Mode to stop any interference from your phone network.
Step 2: Reset and Set Up VPN
- Go to Settings, then Apps, then find Galaxy Store.
- Tap Storage, then choose to clear all data and cache.
- Download a VPN app like Surfshark, Windscribe, or Eset VPN from the Google Play Store.
- Open the VPN app and connect to a US server.
Step 3: Install the Perplexity App
- Keep the VPN connected.
- Log into the Galaxy Store.
- Use your web browser (Samsung or Chrome) and go to this link for Perplexity:
[Perplexity App Link]
- Tap Install when the Galaxy Store asks.
Step 4: Log in to Perplexity
- Open the Perplexity app after it installs.
- Use a new Gmail or Outlook email account to sign in (this usually works better).
- After logging in, the app should automatically show the Pro features.
If It Doesn’t Work:
- Delete the Perplexity app.
- Repeat Step 2 and clear the Galaxy Store data again.
- Change your VPN to a different US city.
- Try the steps again.
Enjoy.
