If the system specifically states that this app is not available in your country, the most likely explanation is that the developer has withdrawn it from your country.


A quick web search brings up articles that Bigo has withdrawn its apps from the App Stores with no explanation.

If the developer has decided not to offer and support their app in your country, there is nothing that you can do to get around that fact. The app developer makes the decisions of where their app is available.

The OP used a dishonest way of redownloading the app.


If you don't legally live in Singapore, you cannot honestly change your Apple ID account to that country just to scam the system to get the app. You also would not meet Apple's requirements to change your account to that country;

"Before you update your location, you must spend your store credit, cancel your subscriptions, and get a payment method for your new country or region."


Dishonestly changing your account to another country could also cause you issues with your Apple ID in the future.
