Full Localization, Not Partial Translation

Many apps claim to support multiple languages but only translate the main menus, leaving help text, guides, error messages, and technical terms in English. GrowVPD Pro takes a different approach: the whole app is translated. Buttons, labels, guides, tooltips, plant disease descriptions, nutrient calculator labels — thousands of text strings, translated into all 11 supported languages. A few of the newest texts may still appear in English in some languages until their translation is finished.

  • English (EN) — Default language

  • Dutch (NL) — Nederlands
  • French (FR) — Français
  • Italian (IT) — Italiano

How to Change Your Language

1

Open Settings

Tap the Settings tab (gear icon) in the tab bar at the top of the screen.

2

Find the Language Option

Tap Display & Language, then Language. A language picker appears showing all 11 available languages.

3

Select Your Language

Tap your preferred language. Tabs, menus, guides, calculators, and descriptions switch to the selected language right away; on Android, a few texts change only after you restart the app.

Tip: The language setting is independent of your phone's system language. You can use your phone in English but run GrowVPD Pro in German, or any other combination.

What Gets Translated

When you switch languages, the following all update:

  • All UI elements: Tab names, buttons, labels, menus, dialogs
  • VPD chart: Axis labels, stage names, tooltips
  • PPFD guide: Light recommendations, DLI calculations, stage-specific advice
  • Grow diary: Stage names (Seedling, Vegetative, Flowering, Harvest), field labels, placeholders
  • Disease & Pest Guide: Disease names, descriptions, symptoms, and treatment recommendations (for the newest entries, symptoms and treatment may still be in English in some languages)
  • Plant Guide: Growing techniques, training methods, substrate descriptions
  • Calculators: Element names, unit labels, mixing instructions, ventilation and yield calculators
  • Equipment tab: Equipment categories, equipment advisor and setup builder
  • Automation tab: Room/tent management, device types, rule conditions, action descriptions
  • Settings: All option labels and descriptions
  • Notifications: Reminder text, automation alerts, daily summaries
  • Grow templates: Template descriptions, stage presets, nutrient schedules
  • Error messages and help text

Right-to-Left (RTL) Support for Hebrew

Hebrew is a right-to-left language, which requires the entire UI layout to mirror. On Android, GrowVPD Pro mirrors its layout as soon as you select Hebrew in the app; on iPhone, the layout direction follows your phone’s own language setting:

  • Text aligns to the right
  • Navigation elements mirror (back button moves to the right side)
  • Lists and cards flip their layout direction

This is not a simple text swap — the entire UI framework adjusts to provide a natural reading experience for Hebrew speakers.

Thai Language Support

Thai uses a complex script with tone marks, vowel positioning above and below consonants, and no spaces between words. GrowVPD Pro handles all of this correctly, including proper text wrapping and display of combined characters.

Language and Data

Changing your language does not affect your existing data. Your grow diary entries, sensor readings, automation rules, and all recorded data remain exactly as they are. Only the interface labels change. If you entered diary notes in English and switch to German, your notes stay in English — only the field labels around them change to German.

Translation Quality

All translations are maintained by the development team. Technical growing terminology (VPD, PPFD, DLI, EC, pH) is kept in its internationally recognized form across all languages, since these are universal scientific terms that growers in every language use.
