How exactly does the Glide localisation work? Will I be able to store the user’s device language as a variable, or does it happen automatically as the Glide app reads the users device browser language? If someone could explain how it works, I’d greatly appreciate it!

As Dilon noted above, Glide does support Localization, but not for all languages, and not all texts are translated. What’s your use case?
