Issue with HA system language within Butler #36

Open ralxxx opened 6 months ago

I thought Butler is a wrapper for the home assistant website. But I am facing a curious problem. Because Butler is in English language only. Even if I decide to change Home-Assistants system language to - let's say German - Butler remain in English language. Whereas when logging in to HA via a Browser, the system language has changed (as determined by the user).

Current behaviour: System language of HA can be changed via Settings > General to another language. These setting can be saved and another system shows as set. But the actual system language (English) remained unchanged. Butler - Flatpak version: 1.1.3

Desired behaviour: When system language of HA is changed (no matter if in webbackend or via Butler), Butler should display HA in the chosen language

Butler - language settings

This is a strange one, thanks for reporting! The app really is mostly just a web wrapper, so I would expect it to behave the same as in a browser. Can you check if you get this same behavior in GNOME Web, as it uses the same web engine?

b.t.w. it seems the official Android app behaves in the same way.

Just tested with Gnome Web. Indeed, the same. (I tested v46.0/Flatpak as well as v43.1/deb)
