App settings: language, notifications, club name, and account

How to change the in-app language (hint: it follows your phone's system language), how to rename your club, manage notifications, and delete your account.

A quick reference for the most-asked settings questions. For which devices and stores ESMO is available on, see the Game Platforms article.

App language

ESMO has no in-app language menu. The app uses your phone's system language automatically. If your phone is set to Korean, ESMO will display in Korean (assuming Korean is supported, which it is, along with English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, German, Italian, Russian, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), Japanese, Korean, Turkish, Polish, and Indonesian).

To change the in-app language, change your phone's system language.

  • iOS: Settings → General → Language & Region → iPhone Language. Or Settings → Apps → ESMO → Language (on newer iOS versions).

  • Android: Settings → System → Languages, or Settings → Apps → ESMO → Languages.

If your language isn't in the list of supported locales, ESMO will fall back to English.

Region

There is no manager-level region setting. Your eligible regional competitions are derived from your roster's home countries. To change which regions you can enter, change which players are on your roster. See the Competitions article for more on how this works.

Rename your club

You can rename your club from your profile / club settings. Rules:

  • Cooldown: there's a multi-day cooldown between meaning-changing renames.

  • Cost: free.

  • Character rules (Free): letters, numbers, and a small number of spaces.

  • Character rules (ESMO+ Gold): expanded character set (country flag emoji, hyphens, pipes, dots, more spaces).

If you change just a small cosmetic detail, the system may treat it as a non-semantic edit and let you change again sooner. Any actual rename starts the full cooldown.

Notifications

Open Settings → Notifications inside the app. You can toggle individual categories independently:

  • Match alerts

  • Cash prize claim

  • Sponsorship offers

  • Player task completion

  • Player contract expiration reminder

  • Auction end reminder (ESMO+ Gold only)

  • Auction outbid alert (ESMO+ Gold only)

There is also a master toggle. If push notifications are still not showing up after enabling them in-app, check your phone's OS-level notification permissions for ESMO.

Sign out

Settings → Logout (red button at the bottom of the Settings screen).

Delete your account

Settings → Delete my account (red button). This deletes your account, not your club.

Important: clubs persist forever in ESMO. There is no in-app way to delete a club. If you delete your account and then sign up again with the same email or Apple/Google account, you'll be reattached to your previous club, with all its history intact.

If you want a fresh start, the cleanest way is to delete your account and sign in with a different Apple/Google account, which will create a brand new club.

FAQ

Why can't I find a language menu in the app?

Because there isn't one. The app follows your phone's system language. This is a deliberate choice to keep settings simple. Change the phone's language and ESMO will follow.

I picked an ugly name and the cooldown is too long. Can I rename early?

Not currently. The cooldown exists to prevent name spam (people renaming every hour to dodge moderation or to harass other clubs). I won't waive it on a one-off basis.

Can I delete my club / start over?

There is no delete-club button. If you want a fresh club, sign in with a different Apple/Google account. If you delete your account and re-sign in with the same one, you'll end up back at your old club.

I had an account before with this Gmail but never logged in. Why can't I sign in?

Sign-in uses your Google / Apple identity. If you've signed in before, the same Google account will land you on the same club. If you can't sign in, double-check you're using the same Google account in the Play Store and in the app (see the Game Platforms article for sign-in details per platform). If you've moved to a different account, contact support and we'll look into it.
