Localization

The Kustomer Chat SDK supports over 50 languages out of the box. The Chat SDK automatically translates strings into the primary language of the customer's language locale.

You can learn more about how to customize localization settings for you organization in the Kustomer Help Center.

Change the default language

Kustomer uses the device language as the default language. To change the default language, pass in the desired language locale when you initialize chat with options to override SDK settings.

In the example below, we set the default language to English, US:

val options = KustomerOptions.Builder()
              .setUserLocale(Locale("en_US"))

Kustomer.init(application = this, apiKey = apiKey, options = options.build()) {
            Log.i(TAG,"Kustomer is initialized ${it.dataOrNull}")
        }
