Does Shifton detect a user’s language automatically?

Yes. On first login we detect the browser/OS language or location and load the right version instantly. Users can change it any time using the language selector in the top-right corner of the header.

Are emails, push notifications and reports localised too?

Yes. System emails, push alerts, in-app messages and most report labels are translated and use regional date/time formats.

Can different users in the same account work in different languages?

Absolutely. Each user chooses their preferred language via the top-right language selector, without affecting others.
