How can I set Baidu Maps for iOS in English?

I'm going to China (Beijing, Suzhou, Hangzhou and Shanghai) and I'm looking for an alternative to Apple Maps and Google Maps for walking and public transport itineraries.

Because :

I'm not sure that all Apple Maps features are enable in this cities ;
Google Maps seems to be blocked by the Great Firewall ;
I would like to avoid the use of a VPN ;

I'm using an iPhone and Baidu Maps seems to be the more accurate choice, as well as the App Store description says that this app is also available in English.

But even with English available, the app is always boot in Chinese. My iPhone was set in French when I downloaded Baidu Maps for the first time. So I set my iPhone settings to English, and then download again the app, but it is still set in Chinese.
