How to get know language (locale) currently Android app uses to display texts to user?
I know I can use Locale.getDefault() to get default OS locale. But it may differ from locale used by app to display text and other resources, if this locale isn’t supported by app.
I need to determine language (locale) displayed by the app, thus the app can pass language to the server, so it can localise returned results.
My own solution is to add to
strings.xmlkey-value pairlocale=<locale code>, thuscontext.getResources().getString(R.string.locale)will return locale code specific for used locale.
