Apps written in the language you asked in
Not built in English and translated after. Written in that language from the start.
The language follows your request
There is no setting to find. The language you write in is the language of the app. Across seven Korean trades we ran, the body text came out 95–100% Korean.
It is not only the words
Prices, dates and phone numbers come out in the local form. So does the tone — it reads like someone from that country wrote it, not like a translation of an English sentence.
Local requirements come with it
We keep a requirements table for eleven countries: Korea, Japan, Germany, Spain, France, Italy, Portugal, the Netherlands, Poland, Turkey and India. If the app has a selling screen, the notices that country asks for are checked.
- Korea — business and mail-order registration numbers
- Japan — the 特定商取引法 notice
- Italy — Partita IVA visible on the home page
Wording from the wrong country is removed
Translated output leaks notices from other countries — a Korean site picking up VAT, for instance. That is caught by machine and rewritten, not left for you to notice later.
We built in twelve languages to check
Twelve languages were generated and inspected: the page language tag, exactly one main heading, no broken images, and nothing spilling off the side of the screen.
Starting a template in another language
Copying a template as it is costs nothing. Asking for it in another language rewrites the whole app in that language, and that is a paid run. The price shows before it starts.
Common questions
Can one app carry two languages? Say so in your request. It is worth deciding which language each screen defaults to, otherwise the two drift apart as you keep editing.
What about countries with no requirements table? The app is still written in that language. What we cannot do is check that country's required notices for you — that part you confirm yourself.
I asked in English but prices came out in won. That did happen once, and it is fixed. Currency now follows the language you asked in, and a machine check enforces it. If it still slips, say so once and it changes.
