Details

    • iOS/tvOS/watchOS, macOS

    Description

      After updating to iOS 11, system localization always returns the English language :

      qDebug() << "QLocal language: " << QLocale::system().language();
qDebug() << "QLocal name: " << QLocale::system().name();

      outputs :

      QLocal language: QLocale::Language(English)
QLocal name: "en_US"

       
      Device localization & region of the device seems to be ignored. E.g. when I set the iOS device language to "French" and region to "France", QLocale returns the above outputs.
