Change my account's language setting

Learn how to change your account's language setting via the web app and the mobile app.

The language setting only applies to the user interface, not documents such as templates and inspections.

Ensure that your mobile device and web browser are compatible with SafetyCulture. The default language settings for the web app and the mobile app apply differently:

  • Web app: Your account's language setting on the web app follows your organization's language setting.

  • Mobile app: If supported, the language setting on your mobile app follows your device's system language.
