Q: Why language of my user interface suddenly changed?

A: When the language setting of your account is different from that of your device, you will experience a sudden change in display language.

When the app is installed, the app references to the language setting of your device. This default setting can be changed in Setting Page after you have successfully login the app. Because the language setting is account specific, if you log out, the app will automatically switch back to the device language setting. If you login again, it will switch back to the language setting of your account.
