I can't put my macro in English, what should I do?
I searched in the settings, everything is in English but my macros remain in French.
Can you guide me?

You have 2 options.
1. MD settings 2. OS language settings
MD settings works fine on All my devices, but OS doesn't one of them. It worked few months ago though.
I set the system default as English, but I often switch it for Japanese MD users, not just for kidding;)

How can your macros be in French and the rest of MD in English? It's so weird.
On the very bottom line (dark blue line of every MD screen) you have 4 options (from Home/Accueil to Settings/Paramètres, according to the selected language). Select Settings/Paramètres then the bottom line called Select language/Définir la langue. Then select English and everything should turn to English. When you are done, select the first line called System default and select it a 2nd time to have this line ticked (small bug when changing language and going back to system default).
It happens to me all the time, macrodroid's language is always set to english but my macro's themself will change to dutch after a while.

I always fix it by changing macrodroid's language to dutch and right back to english.

If your device allow 2 or more languages, it might solve the problem.
I set my default, prior language, to English on OS settings permanently, and switch only MD language setting to another if needed. Normally MD language setting is system default. It works very good for me. The cons of the solution is that it makes harder to communicate with local people when you need to show your device screen :eek:

Anyway, I hope @MacroDroidDev providing another language option, the macro code and system log keep as they are in English, and the other elements are localized. The unification of coding reserved words improves our communication easier.
People tend to write their issues so deeply, but the result of the machine translations and/or inadequate self translations cause miscommunication for us, at least for me.
Even though in local MD community, I always aak the Japanese guys to let me see their macro and log instead of their verbose expression.

Of course, I absolutely appreciate volunteer translators, but the localized language resources contain mistakes and misleadings unfortunately.
I wonder who tend to prefer their first language for writing macro code itself. Normally, in another programming languages, people write in English though. UI and help texts is OK, I don't need but it is quite helpful for most people.
Especially in Japanese(and also in Chinese, Taiwanise and Korean) multibyte wide characters occupy pixels double, so it makes the screen narrower and tighter. It is very hard for me to read and write codes on the mobile small screen.

It has already happened to me again, macrodroid language is still set to english (i have not changed it) but when i add a trigger/action/constraint they are in dutch..

It's not a big deal for me, it's just that i have to change the language to dutch (or other language) and back to english before taking screenshots to help people..

I have taken some screenshots to show you, as you can see macrodroid is set to english and most things are in english, just not the triggers/actions and constraints, and for some reason the pop-up for configuring the shell script action is still in english apart from the timeout which is in dutch!

I just changed the device language setting on OS settings app. It was applied to the macros and these lists ONLY. I reality need the version of the reversed-the-buggy-display.
One more thing, If switched to another language, the order of triggers/actions/constraints should be as they are. When MD commands' initial letters changed, their position changed as well depending on languages. I sometimes modify my macro a little bit after switching to Japanese. However, I don't know not only these command name exactly in Japanese but their order, so I am always confused...

Hello,

My macro is ok now, except sometimes I have to pause my screen to mute BT, but it's ok. I looked at my logs, I can't see anything.

My logs are in English now, for that I put my phone in English, and like that I practice writing and reading the language of Sheckspeare. 🤭

My phone is still not rooted, it must. that I wait Monday 4 pm for this to be effective, thank you XIAOMI, 😡.

Question:
With my phone rooted and if I buy the professional version of MacroDroïd, will I have a lot of functions and more, I think of buying it but your opinion would help me.

I put my log attached.

With pro, you get rid of ads and can have more than 5 macros. I bought pro. There's a thread on how to get pro free in the forum as well
