Buying apps while overseas

Hi,

I have an unlocked Galaxy S3 which I bought in Australia, but I'm currently in England using a pre-pay sim from a UK network.

Does anyone know if I can purchase apps while I'm here and still receive the updates when I get home?

Play store now has more options and all prices are GBP so that's changed since I got here, but I know with the iPhone that if I have a UK-specific app I couldn't get the updates after getting back to Oz, I was hoping Android worked differently.

 

That's a great idea! Do you know if it covers all traffic (ie Web, Play store, torrents etc.)? My location is being reported in the country I choose with IP locating websites, but the Play store still appears as if I'm in England

 

Perfect, I'll go with that then. Thanks for your help

 

While I've been in England I've been getting updates for free and paid apps obtained while I was in Australia.
I don't believe any of those apps were country-specific though, so it looks like the UK-only apps I've downloaded will need me to pop my UK SIM back into the phone every now and then to check for updates.

Thanks for your help guys
