Why are the VPN apps refusing to change my IP after using one of them for for some time?

Why are the VPN apps refusing to change my IP after using one of them for for some time?

Free VPNs are sketchy, and I wouldn’t recommend using them.

What you’ve described, perhaps web traffic from the software in question isn’t actually running through the VPN.

If you log into Play store with your account, it does not matter what VPN you use or what IP you have. Google will use your account information to determine your “location”.

Change your region properly once from play store, you wouldn’t need vpn after that

They might have limited servers in one location. Can you try to use another location or change the VPN provider?

Been using a free VPN app for like a week trying to bypass region restrictions for some websites like Rumble and Playstore unavailable games in my location, the free VPN app was working fine for quite some time but then all of a sudden it stopped working like how it was supposed to, it shows the location where I’m is different but the IP is not and the web pages wont open because they know my IP is as from the same restricted location, I used a different VPN called Panda and it does the same thing with France, UK, Canada and many other places but the IP wont change its like the VPN is useless for my phone now

any help would be much appreciated

Never use a Free vpn. Literally just spend $5 and get mullvad for a month

Maybe, I tried two VPNs and they behave the same all of a sudden thats why I downloaded Panda the second VPN, what do you got to recommend?
