SDK Locale
This section covers how to change the language of the SDK in your app as well as the content of all Instabug messages that your users see.
Setting the Locale
The SDK will automatically use the current locale of your user's device, however, you can override it with the following method.
Instabug.setLocale(new Locale("de"));
Here are the possible languages.
new Locale("en");
new Locale("fr");
new Locale("de");
new Locale("it");
new Locale("ja");
new Locale("ko");
new Locale("zh");
new Locale("zh", "CN");
new Locale("zh", "TW");
new Locale("ar");
new Locale("cs");
new Locale("da");
new Locale("es");
new Locale("fa");
new Locale("in");
new Locale("nl");
new Locale("pl");
new Locale("pt");
new Locale("ru");
new Locale("sk");
new Locale("sv");
new Locale("tr");
Dashboard Language
At the moment, the Instabug dashboard only supports English. Changing the SDK locale will not change the language of your dashboard.
Overriding String Values
You can also override each string shown in the SDK individually using the following method.
InstabugCustomTextPlaceHolder placeHolder = new InstabugCustomTextPlaceHolder();
placeHolder.set(REPORT_FEEDBACK, "Send Feedback");
Instabug.setCustomTextPlaceHolders(placeHolder);
Here are the possible keys.

The locale is reflected in all aspects of the Instabug SDK that your users see in your app, including the Welcome Message, bug reporting flow, and Prompt Options.
