No Lithuanian language found on iOS from all versions

Question

No Lithuanian language found on iOS from all versions

I dont have a iPhone or a iPad but i used it in apple store when they came out so i noticed all Macbook's, iPhone's, iPod touch'es and iPads don't have a Lithuanian language which made me dissapointed like just a bit but i was thinking why Apple never does that? I been at WWDC for a first iPhone because it was my vacation day so i was at USA it was great but Apple never did add a Lithuanian language and also i noticed that specs on the side the fonts look like from Windows so maybe Apple uses Windows at my country and i know that Lithuania is small but like what a kid would do with a iphone or any Apple devices and he/she din't learn English so maybe Apple should add the language right away with a tiny iOS update or like Steve Jobs said "iPhone runs OS X 10" on first iPhone annoucment so maybe they should think about it.😟

iPhone 3G, iOS 1.x, it's for all devices that run iOS

First of all no inappropriate language was used only the disappointment from no action being taken by Apple for what a such a small thing but which makes a lot of people frustrated! There is no Lithuanian main language in Iphone language setting as an option! Why? All other countries big small , european, third workd countries , most if them are in the option but Lituanian? I found it very disrespectful towards our country and the users if an iPhone product! Starting to feel that maybe we are being discriminated. The official complaint has been made regards this issue and hopefully my concerns will be heard and a small effort will be put by Apple to update next software and include Lithuanian language in!

Thank you

Tom,

Your knowledge of all things Launguage is exemplary and probably unmatched by anyone else here. I'm certainly not questioning, nor arguing with, anything you say regarding this topic.

It just would be nice if you explained, clarified and informed, rather than belittle others for interpreting a question differently than you do.

Have a good day.

This is support for websites, but not main/core UI or iOS Language.

Lithuanian is UNsupported. And it's totally unacceptable.

Not really. There are only about 30 languages supported, leaving a hundred or so still needed, including some from India with hundreds of millions of speakers.

If you want to ask Apple to add a feature like this, you should repost it at

http://www.apple.com/feedback

because they will not likely see it in these user to user forums.

No, that list is not relevant, there is no user interface support for most of the languages on it. You can find the supported languages listed in the tech specs:

http://www.apple.com/iphone-6/specs/

You gave the same wrong and unhelpful info on May 10 for Bengali. I suggest you consult the specs yourself.

The OP only asked about "language" support, not UI.

UI localization is what people normally mean by "language", it's what Apple means when it says "language support", and selecting that item on that list will not do anything useful. I'm sure you wouldn't want to mislead someone regarding a possible purchase decision.
