The language section now includes a toggle feature that allows users to show or hide the section on the player based on their selection.

Language Selection and Display

A feature allows users to select languages from a list using checkboxes. The selected languages’ flags will be displayed on the player’s splash screen, as well as in the language and avatar sections. If no languages are selected, US English will be shown by default. If a language is set from the contact list, both that language and the default US English flag will be displayed.
