Multilingual people might understand the sentiment of setting the whole system language to one language when you want to select other languages for specific apps. Your Samsung smartphone supports various languages for so long. Still, you can only set a single language for the system.

Meanwhile, Samsung has changed this with the One UI 5, which introduces the Per-app language feature. Primarily a feature of Android 13, the per-app language allows users to select a different language preference for each app.

The company has developed this feature, especially for multilinguals, who prefer to use different languages depending on the situation and change the way they communicate from one instance to another.

For example, you might like to use a social media app in English while news provider, banking, and other applications in your mother language or the area you belong to. This can also be really helpful for older people who don’t understand English as good as they can operate the whole phone with it.

Whereas, the Per-app language makes it possible to drive applications under the same set of locations on Android settings. It allows applications to change locale preferences at runtime using the newly introduced API.

However, it should be noted that the availability of this feature may vary depending on the apps. It could be possible that some third-party apps do not support this feature and these apps may work best in English or another language. Currently, we are not sure which apps support it or which don’t.

If you are one of the Galaxy S22 series users running on One UI 5 beta, you can access this feature through the specific app info or settings. Also, you can search for it on your phone’s settings.
