Hi @Houssem , How about I have the String label in .cs class. Do you have idea how to implement it?
public SettingsPageModel()
{
SelectedSettingsItem = new ReactiveProperty();
_notificationsItem = new SettingsNotificationItemViewModel("NOTIFICATIONS", false, ToogleNotifications);
SettingsItems = new[]
{
new SettingsItemViewModel("LINK ACCOUNT", LinkAccount),
new SettingsItemViewModel("CHOOSE APP LANGUAGE", ChooseAppLanguage),
new SettingsItemViewModel("PHRASE TRANSLATION LANGUAGE", PhraseTranslationLanguage), _notificationsItem,
new SettingsItemViewModel("ABOUT US", AboutUs),
new SettingsItemViewModel("CONTACT US", ContactUs)
};
SelectedSettingsItem.Where(x => x != null)
.Subscribe(x =>
{
SelectedSettingsItem.Value = null;
x.Command.Execute();
});
}
public SettingsItemViewModel[] SettingsItems { get; }

Thanks for all Amazing Videos :) I really appreciate your helping to other people.
I need to ask can I use and change the App Language environment from the Application, not from the mobile operating system ?

How to change just the app language, without changing phone language?

[@HoussemDellai]

That is doable, check the docs here: github.com/CrossGeeks/MultilingualPlugin

[@rishusingh2855]

good job

[@tajayeb]

Great video but seems like a lot of work. Isn't there a way to have it convert the words on the screen without me knowing the language?

[@mustafaghoneim468]

Can anyone upload the TranslateExtension.txt file in the Helpers folder and paste the link here, please.

[@sascham.1129]

Thanks for this video! You should mention that this only works for PCL projects in Xamarin and NOT for shared projects :(

[@lutaayahuzaifahidris3679]

Man , what i can just tell you is , get rid of shared projects for a while they have alot of complications

[@BachPhotography]

This would've been very helpful info, I've been trying to get this working on share project for a few hours now.

[@Kollegah9997]

You don't need any Nuget for Localization. You can do this just be writing couple of lines of code. But good video.
