The language of my Android app recently changed to French on its own. I can’t seem to find how to switch back to English 🤔 ---

Do you have any other apps that are displaying in French? Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app? ---

I forgot to mention that I am French on a French OS with many other apps in French so the Wyze app in French didn’t strike me at first. There’s at least one clumsy translation in the firmware tab that triggered me : Up to date =\> Jusqu’à présent (should be “À jour”) Left the beta program, uninstalled/reinstalled but to no avail. I can live with that but I’m surprised I couldn’t find a language setting in the app 🤷 ![Screenshot_20230619-072844](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/wyze/original/3X/e/f/ef42c1756e773bae1a27615c9f22b547af0a818d.png) ---

I believe the app language is set by the OS language. ---

For those experiencing this, are you using Android or iOS? If Android, will you try going into setting on your phone (not Wyze App) - Tap System - Tap Languages and input - Tap Languages - Make sure it only shows English (or whatever language you prefer) If you really need/want more than 1 language, make sure your primary language is at the top in the number 1 slot. But for the sake of testing this issue, just leave up English and go back and test to see if the other languages disappear for you in the Wyze app. I’m going to add a couple more languages in mine and see if I can reproduce the issue somehow. ---

Android (Pixel 7 Pro and an old Samsung tablet as well) I only have French as language, which is how my Wyze app was 100% displayed until the last update which came with the mixup with Spanish. Spanish is absolutely nowhere to be found in my system, nor in any other app. ---

Interesting. Sounds like Wyze should update the app. Android has an OS setting that lets us set the language for a specific app, but the Wyze app isn’t supported at the moment. I wonder if this mostly occurs during updates or fresh installs. It is interesting that it didn’t start happening until just this last update and is adding languages not in people’s OS selection. Definitely a weird bug. > [@alcyon](#): > > Spanish is absolutely nowhere to be found in my system, nor in any other app. Thanks, I might switch one of my phones to French only and see if I can replicate this then (French is one of my secondary languages since I lived in Haiti for a while). ---

Same for me. We have the same Spanish problem on the Events page only on 2 Samsung phones. Otherwise, everything else seems to be consistently in French, as it was before (the 2 phones are configured for French) Wyze app is 2.44.5 (330) Apparently, it is a known problem that Wyze is currently investigating… ---
