Your own settings: language, password, and which version is actually running.
Proviant speaks English, German and Dutch. The choice is stored with your account and applies on every device you sign in from.
The default is System language: the app follows your browser's setting and falls back to English if it speaks none of the three. The option shows in brackets what that currently resolves to, so you are not choosing blind.
What follows the language:
- all interface text, including messages and screen-reader labels
- dates and weekdays — 14/08/2026 in English, 14.08.2026 in German, 14-08-2026 in Dutch
- numbers and prices — 0.7 l vs 0,7 l, €1.69 vs 1,69 €
- singular and plural — "1 item" vs "2 items", "1 stuk" vs "3 stuks"
What deliberately does not follow it: your own data. Item names, tags, recipes and storage location names stay exactly as they were typed, in whatever language you typed them.
The language is determined on the server for each request, so pages arrive in the right language immediately — no flash of English before switching.
Change your own password here; you need the current one. Changing it signs out all your other sessions, which is what you want if you suspect someone else got in.
Three lines that answer "is my fix actually live?":
| Line | Meaning |
|---|---|
| App | the version number, following semantic versioning |
| Build | when the running image was built (local build in development) |
| Commit | the commit it was built from |
Worth checking before reporting a bug: more than once "it is still broken" has turned out to be a server that had not been updated yet.
The changelog of all versions, newest open, older ones expandable. It is maintained in German only — keeping three translated copies in step would be unrealistic — and the page says so when your interface is in another language.
Administrators find links here to Users and Storage locations. On the phone this is the only route to them; the sidebar with those entries only exists on wider screens.
