Why is there no option to manually change the language in the app? What kind of stupid decision is this? How do I choose a different language in the Strava App than I use on my phone? It's discriminatory. I don't understand this approach, it's so much work for you?? I request that this option be added.I pay for an app and one of the main essentials isn't working. 

Thanks

You should try a search engine how changing an app language is done on your phone.

What about people who don't have this option? I have Xiaomi and I can't select prefered language for the app. I have talked with my friends and some of them have the same problem. We have this problem on Android 14 and 15.

I searched settings->apps->Strava with no luck.

 

I hate this feature. Translations are low quality, not everything is translated. It's hard to navigate the app. Bring me eng language again!

You need to find the language settings of apps in your phone preferences (i.e. not directly in the Strava app). In iOS, simply open the Settings app, type Strava in the search field, and the language preferences should be at the very bottom. It's probably similar in Android devices.

@Jana_S please read my previous message again where I wrote that this option is not available in my and some of my friends phone preferences.
