How to Change the Language for Individual Apps on Android
Android 13 is a mere incremental update, only polishing what’s been available on previous versions of Android. However, it does come with some handy features tucked away that are truly useful. One is the ability to change the language for individual apps on your device. We’ll show you how.
How to Set the Language Per App on Android
By default, your system-wide language dictates the language used across apps on Android. But if you want to use a different language inside a specific app, you can do so by following these steps:
You’ll notice that not many of your installed apps appear under theApp Languagespage. The reason is that since the feature is still new on Android, few developers have implemented it in their apps. Even some of Google’s core apps, like Google Photos and Gmail, were still to be supported at the time of writing.
Until more developers incorporate the feature, you don’t have any option but to dig into an app’s settings page and find if it supports multiple languages.
Different apps have the option in different places, so you should search online for specific steps to change the language if multiple are supported. However, you don’t have to go through all that trouble when you canuse Google Translate in any Android app.
If you have an iPhone, you can alsochange the language of individual apps on iOSvia the Settings app.
Use Different Languages Per App on Your Android Phone
Setting language preferences per app has always been limited on Android because it was always left to app developers. With Android 13, Google is making it easier for developers and users to customize their language preferences. It’s a win for multilingual users, as you may now use Chinese in Chrome and Spanish in Google Maps if you like.
Google Assistant supports over 40 languages. If you want to switch to a different one, here’s how you could do it.
