Switch the app interface to your preferred language

Written by Aurora

Overview

The Language Selector changes UI language for labels, buttons, and system messages. After you pick a language, the interface reloads in that choice and stores the preference for future visits on the same browser. No special permission is required.

Who can use this

Audience

Use case

All signed-in and guest users

Read the product in a comfortable language.

Multi-language teams

Align the UI with local norms.

Trainers and support

Show where to change language during onboarding.

Anyone who can see the app header or mobile menu can use the control.

Before you begin

  • Know that database content (for example some form titles) may stay in the language it was authored until translations exist.

  • The list of languages is fixed by the platform; tenants cannot add or remove entries.

Walk through the flow

Open the language control

  1. On desktop or tablet, look in the top header for the button that shows a flag, the current language name (for example English), and a globe icon near the theme toggle and notification area.

  2. On mobile, open the menu (hamburger icon). The language control sits inside that menu with the theme toggle and other shortcuts.

Select a new language

  1. Click or tap the language button to open the dropdown list.

  2. Choose the row for the language you need (each row shows a flag, language name, and supporting label such as Español under Spanish).

  3. Wait briefly while translations load; the UI switches to the new language.

  4. Read the success toast (for example confirmation that you switched languages) to verify the change registered.

What happens next

  • Navigation, buttons, validation text, and other static strings follow the new language.

  • Toasts and system messages after the switch also use the new language.

  • On your next visit with the same browser, the app starts in the saved language when the preference cookie is present.

Notes

IMPORTANT: There is a single UI language for the whole app; you cannot set different languages per module.

If the page looks unchanged, refresh once. If a language is missing from the list, pick the closest supported option or ask your administrator about future additions.
