My Xbox app is in a different language

Hey Tvittoo -

Is this your Windows 10 PC app or your smartphone app that is in a different language? If it's your PC app, check your PC's language settings and see what the top language listed is. Make sure the top language listed is the one you'd like to see your app
in.



Let us know how it goes!

Hello August J, My name is David. I am an independent advisor, happy to help you today.

Check the region and language settings. Make sure the region and language settings on your Xbox Series S are set correctly for your location. Sometimes apps may not be available in certain regions or may have different names in different languages. Check that your region and language settings are set correctly and then search for the app again in the store.

Also restart your Xbox Series S Sometimes restarting the console can fix temporary issues and make the app appear in the store again. Try turning off your Xbox Series S, unplugging it from the power source for a few minutes, and then turning it back on. Then, search for the app in the store again.

Best regards.

Hey phoenix,

My windows 10 was also on English. But if you look in the language settings via the windows 10 settings app you'll see that there is a seperste entry for "app language". Even though my regular language was set on en-us, this other one was set to a different
language. Might be worth checking out. Putting this one on English us changed a few things. It turned the 24hr clock into a 12hr clock for example.

Usually the games language settings depend on your device settings, so if you set your device/ Xbox app language to English, it should be the same in game. For some games you might have to download them again depending on how the developer packed the different language files. However, if you are facing this language issue with all of your game, please check for any update on your device, clearing the cache and if the issue persists try uninstalling the Xbox app and install it again.

Hi Vallasin,

Thanks for coming to the forums with your question. Unfortunately, the only way to do this is change the global system language. You can always go to
Xbox ideas and post an idea for a different way to select languages.

Thanks,

Brad

Hi Brad,

When you say "global system language", that's the OS language/region settings ? So as long as Windows 10 is in english, Xbox app will be in english and all the games installed will be in english ? Is that correct ?

I have the same question as Vallasin. My system is in english, I haven't installed the Xbox app yet.

Thanks!
