Shamel TV Pro now speaks six languages. The app works in English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, Turkish and Arabic, and you can switch between them in a couple of taps on your phone, in the browser, or on your TV. This guide explains how the languages work, how to change yours, and what stays in English. If you haven’t installed the app yet, start with our Shamel TV Pro app guide.
Which Languages Does Shamel TV Pro Support?
The app interface is available in:
- English
- Español (Spanish)
- Português (Portuguese)
- Français (French)
- Türkçe (Turkish)
- العربية (Arabic)
This covers the menus, buttons, sign-in and account screens, error messages, and the help section. Dates also follow the language you choose.
How the App Picks Your Language
The first time you open the app, it checks the language of your device or browser. If it matches one of the six languages, the app switches to it automatically. Otherwise, it opens in English. When you choose a language yourself, the app remembers your choice on that device, so you don’t need to select it again.
How to Change the Language on Your Phone or Browser
- Open Shamel TV Pro on your phone, tablet or computer.
- Tap the globe button in the header. It shows a short code such as EN, ES, PT, FR, TR or AR.
- Choose your language from the menu. The screen updates right away.
You can also change it from the Language card in the Help section. The same steps work in the web app and in the Android app. If you still need to install the app, see the Shamel TV Pro app page.
How to Change the Language on Your TV
The TV version is designed for a remote, so the language options are easy to reach without typing:
- Open the app on your TV.
- Go to Help in the top menu.
- Open Language.
- Use the arrow keys to select your language and press OK.
The TV interface works the same way on Android TV, Google TV and Fire TV. Our guides to installing Shamel TV Pro on Android TV and on a Firestick show how to get the app onto your device.
Arabic and Right-to-Left Layout
Arabic is written from right to left, so the app switches the whole layout when you choose it. Menus, lists and text align to the right, and the screen reads in the natural direction for Arabic. Right-to-left scripts such as Arabic need this mirrored layout to feel right, which is why it applies to the whole interface rather than only the text.
What Stays in English
A few things do not change with the language, and it helps to know them:
Channel, movie and series names. Titles and categories come from the content library, so they appear as provided and are not translated.
A few Android messages. Some system messages in the Android app, such as the offline screen, the “press back again to exit” prompt and certain subtitle notices, are still shown in English.
Your plan names. Plans such as 1 Month or 12 Months are sent to our system in English, so your account and invoices always match. The app still shows them in your language on screen.
The translations are new, so you may spot a phrase that could be better. If you do, tell our support team on Telegram and we will review it.
Languages and Subtitles Are Separate
Changing the app language does not change the audio or subtitle language of a movie or series. Subtitles are available when the video includes them. On a TV remote, press MENU to turn them on or off. On a phone or in the web app, use the CC button.
Sign In and Free Trial in Your Language
The sign-in and trial screens follow your language too. New users can start a free trial from the Account page and sign in without a password, and error messages appear in the language you chose. To try the service before subscribing, request a free trial or compare plans on the subscription page. Our guide on what to test during an IPTV free trial shows how to judge the service.
Troubleshooting
The language didn’t change. Pick it again from the globe button or the Help > Language option. If you use the web app, refresh the page.
The app opened in the wrong language. The app starts with your device language. Change it once and the app will remember your choice.
Text looks mixed. Channel and movie names stay as provided, and a few Android system messages remain in English. That is expected.
For anything else, our IPTV troubleshooting checklist covers login errors and empty lists. Support is available 24/7 through the Telegram link on our website.
