See original GitHub issue

Avoid duplicates

  • Bug is not mentioned in the FAQ
  • Bug is specific for Android only, for general issues / questions that apply to iOS and Android please raise them in the documentation repository
  • Bug is not already reported in another issue

Technical details

  • Device name: Samsung Galaxy A50 SM-A505FN
  • Android version: 10
  • App version: 1.10.1

Describe the bug

  1. The country Finland is shown as “Finnland” when the device is set to display English.
  2. The country Finland is shown as “Finland” when the device is set to display German.

These are both incorrect spellings for the languages concerned.

Steps to reproduce the issue

English language

  1. Set device preferred language to English (United Kingdom)
  2. Open CWA, tap EXPOSURE LOGGING ACTIVE
  3. Tap Transnational Exposure Logging
  4. Scroll down to the section showing flags and country names
  5. Note that “Finnland” is in the list.

German language

  1. Set device preferred language to Deutsch (Deutschland)
  2. To work around issue reported in https://github.com/corona-warn-app/cwa-app-android/issues/1958 Settings > Apps > Corona-Warn > Force stop
  3. Open CWA, tap RISIKO-ERMITTLUNG AKTIV
  4. Tap Länderübergreifende Risiko Ermittlung
  5. Scroll down to the section showing flags and country names
  6. Note that “Finland” is in the list.

Expected behaviour

  • The country should be displayed as “Finland” when the device UI is set to English. (See https://finland.fi/ for confirmation about spelling.)

  • The country should be displayed as “Finnland” when the device UI is set to German. (See https://finland.fi/de for confirmation about spelling.)

Possible Fix

In https://github.com/corona-warn-app/cwa-app-android/blob/main/Corona-Warn-App/src/main/res/values-en/strings.xml country_name_fi change “Finnland” to “Finland”

https://github.com/corona-warn-app/cwa-app-android/blob/main/Corona-Warn-App/src/main/res/values-de/strings.xml country_name_fi change “Finland” to “Finnland”
