Surely you have at least once encountered the need to switch a specific application on your iPhone from Russian to some other language, but you could not do this, because iOS applies the system language to all software without asking your permission. The only exceptions are those programs that do not support Russian by default or, which is rare, boast a built-in ability to change language settings. However, in iOS 13.1 this problem no longer exists.
Switching application languages in iOS
Along with a lot of innovations that appeared in iOS 13 and iOS 13.1, Apple decided to add the ability to change language settings in specific applications at the user’s discretion.

How to make Russian language on iPhone
Basically, the need to change the language environment on the iPhone to Russian arises in cases where the smartphone was purchased abroad or brought from abroad.
If your mobile device was purchased from an official representative in the Russian Federation, but the gadget changed its language while using it as a portable device, it is worth checking the device for viruses. Since this symptom may indicate the presence of malware or viruses on the phone.

- The last step is to confirm that your choice is correct.
If the instructions were followed correctly, the portable gadget will begin updating all system data.
The change function is extremely simple. Errors and crashes only happen in jailbroken versions of iOS.
In fact, iPhone smartphones have only one language option, which is associated with the user's primary region. By changing the language environment, the operating system is updated, loading data that is associated with the territory in which the language is used.

Also, all applications that the user starts downloading after the update will have the language selected during the change.

On the Home screen, tap Settings.

Scroll down and click on "Language and Region".
Click "[Device] Language"
On the next screen, tap [Device] Language.

The essence of the problem
Surely, almost everyone has had such a situation when on their favorite iPhone, when entering the application store, the language changed from their usual and native one to some unfamiliar one, for example, English, German, French or even Chinese.
Why this happens and why it happens is still unclear. But the user is faced with the question of how to change the language in the App Store back to what it was before. In fact, there is nothing difficult about this, and anyone can cope with this task.
Possible problems when changing the language on iPhone
Sometimes users encounter all sorts of problems that prevent them from changing the phone language. All described methods work 100% only with official models. By purchasing a copy, the owner assumes responsibility for possible problems.
Important! Some copies do not support the change function at all, so it will be impossible to reset such settings.
But even in this case, there is a way out - just download an application from the AppStore that will allow you to make changes. You will have to install such an application yourself.
Note! To avoid such a problem, you should initially give preference to official models. Of course, their cost will be different from a fake, but this will greatly simplify life, as well as the use of the gadget.
If the originality of the phone does not raise any questions, and the problem has not been resolved, it is recommended to contact a specialized center.
You may also encounter a problem when third-party keyboards are not installed on your smartphone. This may happen for some reasons:
- the developers did not initially include such an option as installing third-party keyboards;
- when you need to enter a password (this is considered a protected field), instead of letters or numbers, only dots or other abstract shapes can be displayed;
- The problem may occur if you use the numeric keypad.
Sometimes the keyboard may not appear in the field where you need to enter text. To fix this you need to restart your phone, this is the easiest solution. The most effective way would be to install a new update. Even if the firmware has already been updated, it is better to spend a little more time on installation.
Also, the keyboard may not respond to finger presses. In this case, the problem may be related to the display, so it is best to contact service.
Changing the layout on your device is very simple. This procedure will not take much time, since all actions are usually clearly defined and understandable even on an intuitive level. To avoid various problems during installation, you should initially choose official models of gadgets.
