My iPhone 8 on IOS 16.8 operates entirely in English, but text headings are in French, instead of English.
try and see if your language settings are correct, and if they are please force restart your iPhone to see if the issues persist
Thanks for the quick response. I followed the instructions, but text headers (e.g. SPACE, SHIFT) are still in Frech, while my selected language and all other functions are in U.S. English
To further clarify: It is only the texting keyboard designations that are in French; e.g. instead of "SPACE" my phone says "ESPACE".
