Can I have two apple ids on the same device? I live half the year in Canada, where my phone was purchased. And I live part of the year in the USA. Some of the apps I want to put on my phone won’t let me because my Apple ID info is from Canada. Exam

I want to be able to add another I’d to my phone. Can my phone have two ids at once. I want one id for when I live in Canada, where my phone was purchased, and one for the USA where I live for 5 months of the year. For example I want to add the Kohls app to my phone but it won’t let me. It’s says unavailable for my area. I have lots of Cad$$ in my account that I couldn’t possibly spend before changing the I’d.

iPhone 6, iOS 12

You could create a new ID for use in the US. You wouldn't be able to update your Canadian apps when using your US ID. Swap IDs when you move between the countries. The new ID would need a US credit card and billing address.
