My iOS PayPal app is in Spanish and there doesn't seem to be anywhere to change it back to English. I have an intermediate understanding of Spanish and am able to navigate the settings in the app enough to see that there does not appear to be a language choice section.
My account settings are set to English so I'm not sure what has set the app to Spanish. I was in a Spanish speaking country for a couple months recently so maybe that triggered the change. Is there any way to manually change it or am I going to have to delete the app and reinstall on an English speaking IP address?

I just solved the problem. It must have happend when I updated to IOS 9 on my iPhone. Spanish was somehow added to my chain of Preferred Language Order in my IOS settings. Go to Settings -> General -> Language & Region -> Edit (up in the top right) -> then delete other languages from the Preferred Language list. I deleted Spanish, Closed and then restarted the Paypal app and the issue has been resolved.

First sign back out. Then go to the bottom of the sign in Page and click on one of the 2 little colored rectangles and pick your country from the list that comes up.

My IOS app also changed the default language to Spanish. Unable to correct. My default language in web browser is set to English.
