The iPhone can be a wonderful phone if you know how to correctly use it. If you've ever accidentally set the phone to a different language and can't find your way back, or if you are trying to set it to your native language, read on!
Steps
- If your phone is off, turn it on. Push the on/off button on the top left of the phone to turn it on.
- Push the home button.
- If you are new to the iPhone, you should know that the home button automatically brings you to the home screen, no matter what you were doing.
- Touch the "Settings" button. This should be a gray button with an image of mechanical gears.
- Scroll down to "General." The General button looks exactly the same as the "Settings" button, so this should be no problem to find.
- Scroll down to and click on "International."
- Touch the first button at the top. This is the "Language" button.
- Select your desired language from the list of languages. Press the button in the top tight corner to apply these settings.
Tips
- There is an online manual to help with any questions or problems.
Warnings
- As a last resort, call AT&T. They will work on the problem or replace your phone if they are unable to fix it. Do not try to take apart the phone.
