Apps are developed on the assumption that they will be used worldwide, not just in English-speaking countries. As a result, developers must verify that new apps they develop will work on smartphones used not only in their own countries but also elsewhere in the world. Having received many requests from users preferring to change a smartphone language setup which is already available to other languages (for example English or Japanese or Chinese etc) so developers can verify that their newly developed apps work on smartphone models used in foreign countries.
