Tide Application only available in UK Google Play Store. To use it you need to change your Google Play country to UK. There are two ways to do that.
1- Official Way
If you move to a new country, you may want to change your Google Play country. Your Google Play country determines what content you see in the store. The apps, games and other content in the Store can vary by country.
- You can only change your Play country once per year. So if you change your country, you won’t be able to change it back for one year.
- When you change your country, you won’t be able to use your Google Play balance from your old country in your new country.
To change your country, you need to set up a new country in Google Play. To set up a new country, you must be in that country and have a payment method from the new country.
- On your Android phone or tablet, open the Google Play Store .
- Tap Menu AccountCountry and profiles.
- Tap the country where you want to add an account.
- Follow the onscreen instructions to add a payment method to that country.
- The first payment method must be from the country from which you’re adding a profile. Once you create the profile, you can add payment methods from other countries.
- This creates a new Google Payments profile linked to the new country. The Google Play Store will automatically change to the new country. It can take up to 24 hours to change.

2- Other Option VPN
You can also do the same with VPN on your phone. Watch the video below or read the article below for 2 different ways using VPN to change Google Play country.
To download the TIDE app you want, you first need to go to Google Play and download a free app called Tunnel Bear VPN. Once you download the app you will be asked to create an account, and after you will be sent a bear. Not literally, of course; it just means you need to confirm your email address.
Once you have your account set up, TunnelBear VPN will need your permission to do what it does best with the following notice.
Tide app is only available in the UK. Choose United Kingdom on the VPN server, and as long as you have TunnelBear VPN running, you can use any app without the VPN interfering in any way.
Note: this article uses TunnelBear VPN, but you can use other VPN services as well.
You will know that everything is up and running when you see an animated bear inside a tunnel in the country you want to pretend to be in.
Force Stop and Clear Cache for Google Play
Before you download the app you have some clearing to do. Open “Settings -> Application -> Application Manager” or “All Applications -> Locate Google Play Store -> Clear Cache -> Force Stop.” Do not press “Clear Data;” you want to leave this part alone. The next time you open Google Play you might see its Terms of Service. If you do, just tap on “Accept,” as long as you see that key icon like in the image above.
Remember to only use a VPN when you want to download a free app and not a paid one. If you do try to buy an app, Google could think that your account is being hacked, and you could end up freezing your own account. You will need to activate TunnelBear VPN every time you want to download an app that is not available in your country. It doesn’t stay on just because you downloaded it. The last thing you have to do is enjoy those apps you weren’t able to enjoy until now.
