Many iPhone users search for "Anbi app for iPhone" to use the Binance exchange on their device. "Anbi" is actually just another way to refer to Binance. Due to App Store regional restrictions, some users may not be able to find the Binance APP directly. Don't worry — with the right method, you can have it installed in just a few minutes. Before you start, register a Binance account so you can log in and start using it right after installation. You can get the APP from this download page.
Why Can't I Find Binance in the App Store?
Apple's App Store operates by region — you can only see apps available in the region associated with your Apple ID. Due to policy reasons, the Binance APP may be delisted or invisible in certain regions' App Stores.
This doesn't mean Binance is unsafe or problematic — it's simply a result of Apple's regional app store policies. In fact, Binance is normally available in the App Store in most regions worldwide.
Method 1: Switch Your Apple ID to an Overseas Region
This is the most recommended method. Once set up, future APP updates will also be convenient.
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Register a New Apple ID
Go to Apple's official Apple ID registration page and create a new account using an email that hasn't been linked to an Apple ID before. Select the United States, Hong Kong, or Japan as your region (Hong Kong is recommended since the interface is in Chinese).
2. Log Into the New Apple ID on Your iPhone
Open the App Store, tap your profile icon in the upper right corner, scroll to the bottom and tap "Sign Out," then log in with your newly registered overseas Apple ID. Note: You only need to switch in the App Store — there's no need to change the iCloud account in your iPhone's system settings.
3. Search for and Download Binance
After logging in with the overseas Apple ID, search for "Binance" in the App Store. You'll see the official Binance APP — simply tap to download and install.
4. Switch Back to Your Original Apple ID
After the download is complete, you can switch back to your regular Apple ID. Already installed apps won't disappear, but you'll need to switch back to the overseas account for future updates.
Advantages of a Hong Kong Apple ID
Choosing Hong Kong for your Apple ID registration has several benefits: the registration process is in Chinese, no complicated overseas address is needed, and multiple payment methods are supported. Additionally, the Binance APP available in the Hong Kong App Store is the full-featured version.
Method 2: Install via TestFlight
TestFlight is Apple's official beta app distribution platform. Binance sometimes provides APP installation through this channel.
- Search for "TestFlight" in the App Store and install it
- Visit the Binance website to find the TestFlight invitation link
- Click the link — it will automatically redirect to TestFlight
- Follow the prompts to install the Binance APP
The advantage of this method is that you don't need to switch Apple IDs. The downside is that beta versions have time limits and you'll need to get a new invitation link when they expire.
Method 3: Use the Safari Web Version
If neither of the above methods is convenient, you can temporarily use Binance's web version. Open the Binance website in Safari, log in, and you can perform most operations. You can also "Add to Home Screen" to make it feel like a native app.
However, the web version is less convenient than the native APP when it comes to push notifications and biometric login. For long-term use, installing the APP is still recommended.
Essential Settings After Installation
After successfully installing the Binance APP, we recommend completing these settings right away:
Enable Face ID/Touch ID Login
Turn on biometric login in the APP's security settings. It's both convenient and secure — you can unlock the APP with your face or fingerprint instead of entering a password each time.
Link Google Authenticator
Download Google Authenticator (available in the App Store), then link it in the Binance APP's security settings. This is currently the most recommended two-factor authentication method, more secure than SMS verification.
Enable APP Lock
In the Binance APP settings, you can enable the "APP Lock" feature with a time interval (e.g., auto-lock after 1 minute of inactivity). This prevents others from accessing your account while your phone is unlocked.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will switching Apple IDs cause me to lose my purchase history?
No. Apps and subscriptions purchased under your original Apple ID are not affected. You're only temporarily switching the store region in the App Store.
What if the APP displays in English after installation?
Open the Binance APP, tap the profile icon in the upper left corner, find the language settings (Language), and switch to your preferred language.
What if my iPhone doesn't have enough storage?
The Binance APP requires approximately 300-500MB of installation space. If storage is insufficient, clear some unused apps or photos to free up space before installing.
Conclusion
The core idea for installing the Binance APP on an iPhone is to "switch to an overseas Apple ID and then download." The entire process takes about 10 minutes, after which you can smoothly use Binance for all types of trading on your iPhone.
