How to Change the Language of the App

3 min read

Introduction

The App Language setting changes the interface language of the Easy Subscriptions app itself, the dashboard, settings, and menus merchants use day to day. It does not affect what customers see on your storefront. If you need to translate the customer facing subscription widget or portal, use the storefront localization process instead.

Why It Matters

Running the app in a language your team understands reduces configuration errors and speeds up navigation. This is especially useful for merchants or support staff operating in regions where English is not the primary working language.

How to Manage App Language

Access App Language Settings

Log in to the Shopify admin portal.
Open the Easy Subscriptions app.
Navigate to Settings.
Select App Language.

Select a Language

Choose a language from the available options.
Click Choose to apply the selected language.
The app interface updates immediately to the selected language.

Best Practice

Select the primary operational language used by your team, not necessarily the language your customers speak.
Review your settings after changing the language to confirm configurations still look correct, since some field labels may shift position slightly between languages.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does changing the App Language affect what my customers see?

No. App Language only changes the interface merchants see inside Easy Subscriptions. Customer facing text, like the subscription widget and portal, is managed separately through storefront localization.

Can different team members use the app in different languages?

No. App Language is an app wide setting, not a per user setting, so it applies the same way for anyone accessing the app under your store.

Will changing the language affect my existing subscription settings or data?

No. This setting only changes displayed interface text. Your subscription contracts, pricing, and configurations remain unchanged.

What should I check after switching the App Language?

Review your settings pages to confirm labels and options still make sense in context, since layout or field order can shift slightly depending on the language.

How is this different from adding a language for customers?

App Language changes the merchant facing dashboard only. To offer subscriptions in another language to customers, add and publish that language in Shopify, then add the same language inside Easy Subscriptions under Settings, then Language, on the storefront side.
