In Developer Options, see whether Force RTL Layout Direction is ticked. If so, untick it.

If Developer Options is not enabled on your device, go to Settings, About Phone, and tap on Build Number seven times. Be careful what you do in Developer Options....it can cause phone problems if, like me, you don't know your way around in there.

(Your English is good....I had no difficulty understanding you.)

Welcome to the forums. Have you already tried the steps posted above? What device do you have? Can you post a screenshot so we can have a better idea of what the problem could be?

I've tried all that and it's still backwards help

Welcome to Android Central! Since you're hopping onto a 6 year old thread, it'd be helpful if you told us which device you have, and what exactly you're seeing. Are the letters actually mirror images, or is the text just spelled backwards?

The texts are spelled backwards and when you click on the left side it’s actually clicking buttons on the right. Onn tablet.

I really don’t think I do, also I can’t factory reset it because I can’t remember my password. It’s a kids tablet it has restrictions and what not but I’m really trying to fix it
Not lot of information on those tablets, tried looking up yesterday.
