Hi there @karolinalav,

Thanks for reaching out. Could you please provide us the following:

• Is this on all devices or only on specific one(s)? How does it look on the webplayer?
• Try changing the language to something else and then back to English and see if that helps.
• Screenshots or a video of the behaviour

With this information, we’d be happy to investigate.

Keep us posted.

Hello,

It is only on my iPhone, webplayer and desktop app looks fine (only
English).
I tried changing the language as per your advice but it still looks the
same.
Attaching the screenshot.

Hey there @karolinalav,

Thanks for the post.

On iPhones you can change the language for individual apps. Try the following:

1. Close the Spotify app completely from the background app selector.
2. Open the Settings app.
3. Scroll down and select the Spotify app.
4. Tap Language.
5. Select the language you want to use.
6. Once you're done, exit Settings.
7. Start up the Spotify app and check if the menu language has switched to your proffered language.

Let us know if that helped.

I have quite similar issue.
My Spotify app is in English or Ukrainian.
In the menu "Episodes for you", I had offered russian (or russian language) podcasts. I have no options for "Do not recommend" or filter russian language content.
In a time when the russian fascists attack my country every day, I want to see nothing from their side. no songs. no podcasts.
