2 How do I subscribe to YouTube Premium through the Indonesia region? ▼

Alternatively, you can visit the YouTube website directly, use an Indonesian network environment to sign up, and bind a local payment method. Both approaches work — the App Store method is more straightforward, while the web method makes renewals more convenient.
3 Does Indonesia region YouTube Premium offer the same benefits as the US region? ▼
Core benefits are essentially the same, including ad-free playback, background play, offline downloads, and YouTube Music membership. Some region-exclusive content (such as regionally restricted YouTube Originals) may vary, but the everyday experience is nearly identical to the US region.

4 What is the relationship between Indonesia region YouTube Premium and YouTube Music? ▼
A YouTube Premium subscription automatically includes YouTube Music — the two are bundled together. YouTube Music can also be subscribed to separately in lower-priced regions; see the YouTube Music page for specific pricing. If you need both video and music streaming, subscribing to YouTube Premium in the Indonesia region is the better deal overall, with no need to purchase YouTube Music separately.
