Most of the content showing in Arabic in the app details screen. I would like to switch to English.

Phone language is English but Galaxy Store app not respecting that.

This is not the case here. If I disconnect Wifi, Bluetooth, extract the SIM and reboot - the stores are still in Thai... no preferences are evident and my phone uses only English.

This worked for me. I switched off my kuwait sim and the store switched to english instead of arabic while using my US sim. I was finally able to buy things in the samsung store without getting an error as well.

It seems like Samsung use your location and carrier to decide your location or country. Then after it use the country language. Like for me in Rwanda, I get all apps in French while I use English. This is a big issue for me as we also use English

There's no way to switch the Galaxy store's language, unfortunately. The language is related to the app's provider.

We have been complaining about this issue for years. Surely, samsung must be smarter than that! The world has gone global, half the people in the world live in countries that are not their native countries, and Samsung has still not found a way to simply change language? I find that hard to believe! Either give us a smart technical reasoning, or do something about it already!

Samsung is a joke. I reside in Malta and have two phones 

1) Galaxy S20 Ultra using English language with Maltese Sim card connected to Italian VPN - Samsung displays content in its **bleep** apps in Italian.

2) Galaxy S24 Ultra using English language with Estonian Sim card and connected to the same Italian VPN - Samsung displays content in its **bleep** apps in Latvian - where the **bleep** is the logic in this?

I am not able to download Good Luck through the Galaxy store either since it's "not available in your country" .

Very disappointed by these failures - I hope that apple figures their ecosystem out a bit faster so that I could switch back.

Just bought this new s23 ultra and still the same issue.
Dear Samsung, our expectations is that with your price, you'll give the best for your customers, but it doesn't sound what is happening all over the world. A simple as a store language issue can't be fixed? Seriously!? If the user set the language to "English", then please respect that option.
Thank you.

Same issue here. Samsung come on, just add manual language selection, and issue will be fixed. You can't decide for user which language store will be. It's attached to the Sim I can confirm, I was in Europe with local Sim and store language has changed. Just add language selection and that's it. 1 day for developer. You can't do this for years...this case displays a lot.
