Menus, buttons, field labels, messages and screen states.

App stores

Names, descriptions, introductions and text on promotional images.

Reviewing and cross-checking project documents

Context determines interface string translation

Short strings need a screen description or screenshot to avoid misinterpretation. We agree on tone, terminology and variable handling, and observe character limits when required by the product.

String files can be delivered as translation tables or in the project's export format. Keys, placeholders, plural forms and elements that must remain untranslated should be marked. Testing directly in a test build is defined alongside access permissions and devices.

Deliverables agreed from the outset

  • Translations by string key and app version
  • A glossary and interface language conventions
  • A list of points requiring clarification or display checks

Frequently asked questions

Do you translate both iOS and Android apps?

Content for each platform can be handled using the supplied files. Shared and platform-specific content and the format your technical team will reimport must be identified.

Are placeholders preserved?

Variables and placeholders are identified from the source files and preserved according to project rules. If the structure changes, discuss it with the technical team before finalization.

Do you check for text overflowing the screen?

Display checks can be included in the scope when a test build and appropriate access are available. The screens and devices to test are agreed in advance.

Costs depend on volume, language pair, specialist complexity, formatting and deadline. TanViet reviews documents before confirming the quote; additional services are clearly discussed within the scope.
