Google-chrome – Persisting input language when switching tabs on chrome

google-chromegoogle-chrome-extensionslanguage

Is there any way to have either windows or chrome remember and switch the current input language whenever I switch tabs?

e.g. open a tab on Facebook, switch to French input, open another tab on
Stack Overflow, switch back to English input, go back to the Facebook tab and
have either systems switch the input language back to French automatically for me.

I noticed there's an extension for chrome called language-keeping-tabs but it uses an NPAPI plugin which soon will be no longer supported by Chrome.

This has to do with you OS language.

You CAN change your language via Settings > Advanced > Languages, but in my experience it doesn't always work as it should.

The best way is to change your OS Display Language to French. I don't know whether you're on PC or Mac or something else, but you might figure this one out yourself.

Also keep in mind that some websites use your location to set the language for you.
