How to Change Language in WPS Office for Android and iOS
Microsoft offers a free version of its Office suite for mobile devices. However, many users prefer other free alternatives like WPS Office because they offer more features. WPS Office also performs well on other platforms, but its mobile interface is different.
If you use both the desktop and mobile versions of the software, finding certain settings in the mobile variant can be challenging. One such feature is the ability to change the interface/spell check language. In the desktop version, you can change the language during installation and within the settings for spell check. However, the process is different on mobile. To change the language in WPS Office on Android and iOS, follow these steps:
How to Change Language in WPS Office on Android
To change the language in WPS Office on Android, follow these steps:
1. Go to Settings and open System settings.
2. Select Language & input.
3. Choose Add a language.
4. Select from the available languages and it will be added to Language preferences.
5. Drag the new language to make it the primary language of your smartphone.
Changing the language in your Android device will also affect the language of all apps, including WPS Office. To do this, follow these steps:
Step 1: Open the Settings app on your Android device.
Step 2: Scroll down and tap on “System”.
Step 3: Tap on “Language & input”.
Step 4: Tap on “Language”.
Step 5: Choose the desired language from the list.
Step 6: Open the WPS Office app and you’ll see that the interface is now in the new language you selected.
If the app supports the new language, the spell-check feature will work with it as well.
Note that different Android devices may have slightly different settings interfaces. However, the overall procedure remains the same – you just need to change the system language.
On iOS, WPS Office does not have an in-app language change feature. Instead, you will need to change the system language. Follow these steps:
Step 1: Open the Settings app on your iOS device and select General.
Step 2: In General settings, select Language & Region.
Step 3: Tap on iPhone Language and choose a language from the list. Tap Done in the top right corner.
Step 4: Your iPhone will take a few seconds to change the system language. After that, all your apps will be in the chosen language.
Now open the WPS Office app and you’ll see that the interface is in the new language.
If the app supports the new language, the spell-check feature will work with it. To check if the spell-check works, type something incorrectly and tap on the spell-check option in the toolbar.
According to the app’s website, the Android version supports 50+ languages and the iOS version supports 20+ languages. If the procedure doesn’t work, it might be because the app doesn’t support your selected language. The developers are constantly adding support for more languages, so you may receive support for a specific language in the future.
By following these steps, you can quickly change the language in WPS Office on your Android device. Keep in mind that your device’s operating system might vary slightly, so you may need to select different options to achieve the same outcome. However, changing the system language is all that’s necessary to switch the language in WPS Office.
