Steps To Reproduce

  1. Open the applicatioon
  2. Go the the settings
  3. Change the language from Default(English) to English.
  4. Change the language back to default.

Expected Result

The language of the application is always English

Actual Result

The application language switches to Malayalam, and you have to switch it a few more times to get it back to English. Sometimes the authenticator opens in Malayalam.

Screenshots or Videos

No response

Additional Context

I had Englush(US) as the first language, and Malayalam as the second language in the languages list on Samsung S23 ONEUI 7.0 settings. The way I fixed this was problem by removing all other languages entirely from the list.

Build Version

2025.6.1

What server are you connecting to?

US

Self-host Server Version

No response

Environment Details

Samsung S23
OneUI 7.0
