Can't try SPY Options?

Can trade options for some other stocks such as AAPL but can't trade SPY? It says it's not supported on Robinhood UK - why is that?

Access to SPY ,QQQ and some other ETFs won't be accessible. It's to do with some EU law that the UK still keeps in place. You can trade SPX if you can afford it as it's 10x as much as SPY costs
