Is there any way to translate context menu according to phone language in react-native using expo?

Question

So I use i18n library to localize my app's languages and theres no problem about it, except in context menu only in iOS. Even though I already change the language like Japanese it will always show English like (Select, Select All, etc.)

Add to app.json:

add empty localizations files (https://docs.expo.io/versions/latest/distribution/app-stores/#localizing-system-dialogs-on-ios):

"locales": { "zh": "./languages/zh.json", "ru": "./languages/ru.json" },

And

2.

 "ios": {
     "infoPlist": {
       "CFBundleLocalizations" : ["zh", "ru"],
       "CFBundleDevelopmentRegion" : "zh"
      }
    }
