Question

I am creating my first app on kotlin multi-platform, and a need to get some device's information like language and maybe country.

I am looking for a way to get on both devices, android and iOS, using Kotlin multi-plataform.

It is possible? Or it's only possible make this on native way on both devices?

Answer 1

Something like the following.

Common

expect val myLang:String?
expect val myCountry:String?

iOS

actual val myLang:String?
    get() = NSLocale.currentLocale.languageCode

actual val myCountry:String?
    get() = NSLocale.currentLocale.countryCode

Android

actual val myLang:String?
    get() = Locale.getDefault().language

actual val myCountry:String?
    get() = Locale.getDefault().country
