# Switch Language

**Switch Language** is a built‑in feature in **ONEWEB Page Designer** that allows users to change the **designer interface language**.\
This feature is intended to improve usability for multi‑language teams working on page design.

Currently, Page Designer supports **two interface languages**:

* **English**
* **Japanese**

> Note: This feature changes the **Page Designer UI language only**.\
> It does **not** translate application content or end‑user pages.

### Design Perspective

As part of **Page Designer best practices**:

* Use Switch Language to support **international design teams**
* Allow designers to work in the language they are most comfortable with
* Keep in mind that **content translation** must be handled separately (e.g. via Pages, Microflows, or CMS logic)

The Switch Language feature improves collaboration without affecting application behavior.
