Tho I checked in the settings and the only language there is US English. It uses Google as the search engine but I can't figure out how to access Google settings to check in there for a variance from English. I would appreciate any help and or ideas to get this thing where he can use it so it's not talking in Chinese. Thank you for any assistance. Awards

So basically use that phone to make a pic of the motorola phone and try to find the right settings like that? I've used that app before making pictures of Hebrew food and cosmetic packaging and it worked very well Edited October 13, 2023 by Bamm Awards
