  • In general, the language of your Dropbox mobile app is determined by the system language of your operating system.

    I suggest checking your iPhone's language settings:

    1. Go to your iPhone's Settings > General > Language & Region.
    2. Ensure the primary language is set to English and remove Russian language from the preferred languages list
    3. Restart your phone to ensure the settings are applied to all apps.

     

    If this does not resolve the issue, I recommend to uninstall and reinstall the Dropbox app.

    Hello, I have already done that twice but nothing changed 

  • Hi, did you restart the phone after changing the default language? Have you tried deleting the app and reinstalling it?

    Hey there, aiDrakou, I hope you're doing well!

    I'd also suggest what maher1982 mentioned about restarting your mobile after uninstalling the app. Have you tried it, by any chance?
