## Add it to the language selector
The language selector is available via `Settings -> Content -> App language`. It allows to change NewPipe's language *without changing the system's language* (it's the default android behaviour).

1. Add the [language code](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Language_code) [in the language code array in this file](https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipe/blob/dev/app/src/main/res/values/settings_keys.xml#L966). You must respect the alphabetic order. You can find the language code with Weblate: click on a language to translate, and the language code is in the last part of the URL. For example, English is `https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/newpipe/strings/en`, and English language code is `en`.
2. Add the language name [in the language name array in this file](https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipe/blob/dev/app/src/main/res/values/settings_keys.xml#L1032). It must be placed at the same index as language code. For instance,`en` is the 13th on the language code array, hence it's the 13th on the language name array.
