Steps to reproduce the problem

archon810 commented 2 years ago

Indeed, looks like our language list is not complete. I'll look into expanding it. Now to find the full list of languages supported by the Play Store...

archon810 commented 2 years ago

We currently use https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/table/4419860?hl=en, but that's for the Play Console rather than the Play Store's interface, so it doesn't seem to be the right list.

archon810 commented 2 years ago

There's a list here, but unclear what its source is https://www.ibabbleon.com/Google-Play-Store-Language-Codes.html.

archon810 commented 2 years ago

Looks like Arabic wasn't supported before, but is now. For example: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zhiliaoapp.musically&hl=ar.

I've added Arabic. This change will go live with the next release (which doesn't have a date right now). image
