Android will soon also let you set your current region independently of the system language. With billions of active users, Android is the world's most popular mobile operating system. It offers built-in support for nearly every widely spoken language, making it usable regardless of a person's location. To keep things simple, apps infer what region you're in from the system language (e.g., U.S. Customary for U.S. English). OS version 16 is beig programmed to allow you to use your choice of measurement system regardless of your language setting. Thus. users who have U.S. English set as their language will be able to select the metric system. https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.androidauthority.com%2Fandroid-16-region-measurement-settings-3521970%2F&data=05%7C02%7Cusma%40lists.colostate.edu%7Cb20bc616a53847d46f6e08dd42421176%7Cafb58802ff7a4bb1ab21367ff2ecfc8b%7C0%7C0%7C638739573718400262%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=5I139SRV2mpzXomgrMg50r98gsffMcL%2FYoxeFgckzYs%3D&reserved=0<https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.androidauthority.com%2Fandroid-16-region-measurement-settings-3521970%2F&data=05%7C02%7Cusma%40lists.colostate.edu%7Cb20bc616a53847d46f6e08dd42421176%7Cafb58802ff7a4bb1ab21367ff2ecfc8b%7C0%7C0%7C638739573718412690%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=LFjg96%2FQvPs6ZdSo3UZ%2BEjWcEQ8RoKi7MJQLrX5%2Bv8Y%3D&reserved=0> _______________________________________________ USMA mailing list USMA@lists.colostate.edu<mailto:USMA@lists.colostate.edu> https://lists.colostate.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/usma
