Hey ​@noilaiquen 👋 Jacques here from Intercom Support. I hope all is well today!

The Help Center in the mobile SDK uses the device's language setting or a language override if set, and applies that to the Help Center if it’s supported in the workspace.

However, mobile users are not able to select their own language within the app, and the language selector available on the web Help Center is not supported on iOS or Android. This means that even if you update the user’s language via updateUser and the content changes to English, the UI elements such as the collection title may still display in the device’s language (e.g., French) if that is the device’s setting.

This is a known limitation of the mobile SDK.
