Pinterest is an interesting social media to share and discover new ideas. By default, Pinterest comes with English as a default display language. However, it supports several other languages, which helps all people to use the application with ease. Unfortunately, you can change the Pinterest display language within the settings only on the web version. On smartphones and tablets, you need to change the device settings to make the changes within the app.

How to Change Display Language on Pinterest Mobile App
As we discussed earlier, the mobile version of Pinterest doesn’t have a built-in setting to change the display language. Instead, you need to change the device settings.
iPhone/iPad:
(1) Open Settings on your iPhone or iPad.
(2) Scroll down to choose the Pinterest app.
(3) Under the Preferred Language section, tap the Language option.
(4) Choose the language you want.
(5) Now, use the Pinterest app with the selected language.
Android:
(1) Open Settings on your Android smartphone or tablet.
(2) Select the System Settings and choose the Languages & input menu.
(3) Choose Languages. Select the language you want to use in the Pinterest app.
If you can’t find the desired language, tap the Add Language option and add the language you want.
(4) Launch the Pinterest app, and the selected language will reflect on the app automatically.
Unlike iOS devices, the changes you made in the Android device setting will reflect on all apps. So think twice before changing the settings. Also, this method fails to work on Android smartphones like Samsung.
