Google Android Play Store Supported Language Codes

Tweet Revised: April 2021

Which languages does the Google Android Play Store support?

Google Play Store allows localized app store descriptions into 77 languages and dialects. Technically, your Android apps can be localized into ANY language, even those not supported by the Google Play Store, though users are less likely to select such languages.

We've put together a table that will help you understand exactly which languages and regions you can supply a localized app description to the Google Play Store, and the proper language codes to use.
