Setting “AppleLanguages” doesn't change app language

Question

I am trying to implement a function that can change app language.
I tried to set it like this:

let defaults = NSUserDefaults.standardUserDefaults()
defa         


        

Answer 1

If mean for test purpose, just change the language in simulator settings app.
If you are trying to make a sort of language selector in your app, it' pretty painful and in my opinion you should not.
Your app reads language and locale settings from the device and change the UI accordingly.
Override this behavior is tough and you will never accomplish a full change in language, for instance if you try to display a map in you app and your device language is Spanish, but the app language is english, you will see the map indications written in Spanish.
Here a project that could help.
