Using a VPN to try to access Eversoul while in Japan. Works on my laptop but not on my phone

Basically the title. I’m in Japan because I’m studying abroad, and I’ve been playing since launch on my US account. I still want to play while in Japan of course, so I got a VPN (ProtonVPN to be exact). It works whenever I use the google play pc version, but it doesnt whenever I’m on my phone. I’ve tried turning off my location and disabling my Japanese esim card and it still doesnt work… Does any one have any solution or advice?

Thanks

I noticed you posted on r/ProtonVPN.

Would r/vpns or r/vpn help you out as well?


To summarize, Google Play on PC works, but your phone (Android? iPhone?) doesn’t work?

Do you know what you have on or off OR what settings are the same/different between PC and phone?

Usual culprits are location/GPS, time/region, airplane mode, reset router, firewall, bluetooth, rooted/jailbreak, and perhaps, something else I’m forgetting.

Hope you find a solution.

Have you tried changing your phone’s time zone manually?

You may need to connect to an obfuscated server in your vpn settings. Eversoul on mobile doesn’t play nice with vpns oftentimes. I use Nordvpn and that worked for a while before I just excluded Eversoul altogether for other reasons.

I know it’s a hassle, but what I had to do was, while connected to US location through VPN, delete my Google Play Services cache & data (and Google Play Store cache & data as well just in case), as well as ES entirely. Relaunch Google Play Store and then redownload ES.

Heya, I spend a few months in Japan every year and am also in Japan now. I use SurfShark for my VPN and it works perfectly with Eversoul on my phone. Maybe give that one a try? They usually have some sort of coupon going on for Reddit.
