Install the inSync Client

Overview

With the addition of multilingual support, you can view the {{Client}} and perform various tasks in your preferred language. {{Client}} supports Japanese, German, and French, and English languages.

The {{Client}} is automatically installed in the locale that is set on the user device. For example, if your device is on the Japanese locale, the {{Client}} is automatically installed in the Japanese language. However, if the device locale is not in the list of languages that the {{Client}} supports, the {{Client}} is installed in English.
