Localization is not working in nougat devices

Changing locale programmatically like below,

Locale locale = new Locale("es");
        Locale.setDefault(locale);
        Configuration config = new Configuration();
        config.locale = locale;
        getBaseContext().getResources().updateConfiguration(config,
                getBaseContext().getResources().getDisplayMetrics());

        Resources.getSystem().updateConfiguration(config, null);

Is not working for nougat devices, It automatically changes to english when we switch from one activity to another

Nougat has deprecated the config.locale. Use setLocales() instead. 

Configuration config = activity.getBaseContext().getResources().getConfiguration();

Locale locale = Utils.stringToLocale(stringLanguage);
Locale.setDefault(locale);
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.N) {
      config.setLocales(new LocaleList(locale));
} else {
      config.locale = locale;
}
activity.getBaseContext().getResources().updateConfiguration(config,
            activity.getBaseContext().getResources().getDisplayMetrics());
