I love the app. But PairDrop always comes up with the Simplified Chinese language option, and I have no way to change it—it's really frustrating. I don't know if it's an issue with my phone specifically, but the dropdown button doesn't show any menu whatsoever—I use a Tecno Pova 6 Neo, if that helps. Alternatively, the web-app works fine, it has the language and light/dark theme settings on the main page, and I can use that for the meantime; but I'd still like to see that fixed, thankyou.

Problem is that it is using internet to transfer files, no direct wifi connection ection between 2 devices like Apple airdrop. So it is unusable by me, especially when there is no wifi connection or internet at all. Uninstalling
