Or at least respect the locale setting, not to get the system language setting yourself. Bitwarden seems not to be respecting App Locale Xposed module.
The translation of my language is stupid. I prefer English :D

What is your device's language/locale set to that is is not respecting? What type of device are you using?

And you're saying that the app is not displaying content in English?

Yup (I have my device language set to non-English, but I use a Xposed module
called App Locale 2 to change language on a per-app basis, for apps that don't
have a language option. All other apps which I set to use English are
working... Except Bitwarden :(

Can you provide more info on how I can use this to reproduce the problem?

Why not ;)

  1. Install App Locale 2 Xposed module (I hope you know what Xposed is).
  2. Set your device language to something other than English.
  3. In App Locale 2, set the language for Bitwarden to en_US.
  4. Try opening Bitwarden to see what language it is...

Are there any news on an option to set the language in-app? My device is set to a non-english language, but I would much prefer Bitwarden in english (some terms just dont make sense when translated from english, i.e. the standard URI matching options)

Thanks ! :)

Bump.
Please provide a language selector in the app options! Android doesn't have a way to set language per-app without rooting, it's one of the biggest flaws in the OS in my eyes, because I have to nag developers to add the manual toggle to every app that misses it...
