# Languages

The OmniGet interface comes in 12 languages. The translations are made by volunteers, so some languages are complete and others still show parts of the app in English.

## Where it is

**Settings › General › Language**. The same menu is in the first step of the [first launch](https://getomniget.com/docs/onboarding).

## How to use it

1.  Open **Settings › General**.
2.  Pick a language in **Language**.

The app changes at once, with no restart. On the first launch, OmniGet picks your system language when it has a translation for it, and English otherwise.

## Options

The languages, as the menu shows them:

| Language | In the menu |
| --- | --- |
| English | English |
| Portuguese | Português |
| Spanish | Español |
| French | Français |
| Italian | Italiano |
| Russian | Русский |
| Greek | Ελληνικά |
| Persian | فارسی |
| Lao | ລາວ |
| Japanese | 日本語 |
| Chinese (Simplified) | 中文 |
| Chinese (Traditional) | Chinese (Traditional) |

### Persian and right-to-left

With Persian, the whole window switches to a right-to-left layout. It switches back when you pick a left-to-right language.

### Coverage

Coverage is uneven. Where a string has no translation yet, OmniGet shows the English text in its place, so a page can mix two languages.

## Help translate

The translations live on Weblate, an open translation platform. You can translate from the browser, without touching any code:

1.  Open [OmniGet on Weblate](https://hosted.weblate.org/engage/omniget/).
2.  Pick your language and start translating, or review the suggestions already there.

New translations ship with the next release of the app.

## Common problems

### Part of the app is still in English

That text has no translation in your language yet. You can add it on Weblate.

### The language changed by itself after the first launch

OmniGet matched your system language on the first launch. Pick another one in **Settings › General › Language**; your choice is kept.
