How do I change the language?

Change the language

The app speaks more than English. You can switch language whenever you like. The setting is stored against your account rather than the device, so the app reads the same wherever you sign in.

Change it on the web app

There are currently no translations on the web app or marketing website.

Change it on your phone

1. Open the Pin Drop app
2. Tap the four squares in the bottom navigation
3. Select settings from the bottom of the drawer and then select preferences
4. From that list you'll see languages and the current languages will be listed there too
   
5. Tap through to switch your language. No need to save, it changes instantly
   
   1. English (default)
   2. English (US)
   3. Arabic
   4. Chinese
   5. Dutch
   6. French
   7. German
   8. Hindi

If you're not logged in and new to the app, you can tap the flag icon on the top corner of the first screen and switch languages.

Because the setting lives on your account rather than the device, changing it in one place changes it everywhere.

What changes and what does not

Translation covers the interface: menus, buttons, settings and the wording around your data. Anything you typed yourself is left alone. Pin names, notes, tags and territory names are your words, so they are never rewritten. FILL confirm this is right.
