Users decide whether an app feels trustworthy within seconds of opening it. Dahlia Localize localizes everything from onboarding screens to store listings, so your app reads naturally on every device and in every market you launch in.

What is App Localization?

App localization adapts a mobile application's interface and surrounding content — onboarding flows, in-app text, push notifications, and app store listings — for a target language and market. Because screen space is limited and users move quickly, translations need to be both accurate and concise, tested in context wherever possible.

Content & elements we handle

  • Onboarding flows and in-app UI text
  • Push notifications and in-app messages
  • App store listings, titles, and screenshot text
  • Subscription and payment screens
  • Help center and support content
  • iOS (.strings) and Android (.xml) resource files
