Text field translations

Overview

You can provide translated content for standard text elements as well as customizable text fields (service names, alert messages, button labels, etc.) so that patrons receive the information in your app in their preferred language. The app automatically displays translated content when your users change their device language settings.

Translation types:

• Default translations: Provided for standard text elements, but can be customized based on your library preferences
• Custom translations: Your library must manually add translated text for your custom content in the desired languages

Translations are available in 17 languages. Multiple translations can be added for customizable text fields.
