WhatsApp, for those unaware, supports 60 global languages on Android, and currently,the app automatically selects the system languagewhen users set it up for the first time. However, with the new App language setting, users will be able to manually change the app’s language via its settings and without changing the language of their device.

This feature is similar to one of the key features of Android 13, which is per-app language settings. With this, Android users can change the language of apps individually from the system settings. Although the feature is live as of thelatest developer preview of Android 13, it still needs a few improvements.
