With the great flexibility that smartphones offer to their users, you can easily set up your phone to display information in other languages. Your smartphone interface uses the factory or manufacturer's default language selection, but you can change it to the language you want with a few easy steps. The steps to follow differ based on the type of phone you're using: iPhone, Android, or a regular phone (not a smartphone).
