This is not true as far as my iOS devices are concerned. I can switch it to any language and the next app start will show the app in that language (if the app is localized for it)

Our apps are localized for 16 languages and always switch to the user’s preference - just using .lproj and NSLocalizedString.
So your English speaking American can move to Germany and keep all apps speaking EN-US. (But maybe he should then start learning German anyway)
