    Hi Nicola,

    Thank you for reaching out.

    Please note that the language switcher is not available offline as it uses an internet connection for the translation to work.

    For any other concerns, please let us know.

    You should really find an alternative way to make it work, at least leave the possibility to select the language in the app and then go offline

    BTW, If I set Arabic as Primary (clicking the set primary button below) will I see it Arabic offline?

    Based on my test, the answer is no. Offline forms will still be in English.

    That said, I will create a feature request to make the form translation available offline. We don't have an ETA on when it will be implemented but we're hoping soon.

    We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused you. We appreciate your patience and understanding.

    Let us know if you need further assistance.

    Best regards,

    Only to let you know, becouse my customer will use the form in Arabic: I made a new form in arabic with english translation to have offline form in arabic.

    English translation of datepicker is a mess and text fields are RTL ... something to improve :-)
