Dropbox mobile app for iphone is in Russian, desktop version is in English

Dear All,

I downloaded the Dropbox app from AppStore and I see that THE language is Russian. From the very beginning it is working in Russian. No option to select another language ( in settings e.g) In my desktop version, the default language is English. I speak Russian, it's not a problem but I wonder how to select/change language in the mobile Dropbox app.
Thank you for any advice.

    Hi Angelwing, how are you today? 

     

    Here is how you can change the language on your Dropbox account. Keep in mind, the device's settings might play a role into this too.

     

    Keep me posted on the results!

      Hi Megan,

      It seems that my Dropbox will  be in English only if my mobile phone's default language is English. If the default language is not English (e.g. German, Hungarian), Dropbox's language will be Russian for some reason. Interesting experience ))Thanks for the advice!
