Android is a litle nightmare about locales supporting, and force tying
app's locale to OS locale is not the optimal solution, because user only
can select locales based on a list defined by device manufacturer. That's
is, same Android release (4.2) can show different locales based on
manufacturer (Samsung, LG, Sony...), or a locale currently supported wasn't
supported in older Android releases.

For sample. Catalan locale (ca-ES) is supported by Android upstream
project, but it's removed by some manufacturers and was'nt supported in
Android 2.x and 3.x releases, :((

IMHO, the best approach is add a drop-box select menu in "Impress remote
control" settings to allow customization of app's language menu. With this
option enabled we have two benefits:

1st.- "Impress Remote" language is not tied to Android language.
2nd.- Unsupported Android locales (or removed by manufacturer) can be
supported by "Impress Remote". Currently, only languages with 2 letters are
supported by resource packaging system. See [2].


Yours,

Joan Montané
