I'm a native English speaker but my phone and fitbit are in French. I minored in French in college and I'm trying to shake off the rust.

My phone and YouTube are in French, everything else is in English. No idea why YouTube (and only YouTube, not google, gmail, etc) is French, one day it was and I've never put in the effort to change it.

Native English speaker also.

Interesting! My google apps all changed to French, I wonder why yours didn't.
