Software localization overview

Software localization is a service that receives a lot of attention today. Companies that solely develop software in a country with a single native language have a hard time improving technology and are frequently limited in their user base. As a result, software localization is an unavoidable trend for these firms in order to broaden their scope of activities, increase traffic, and improve user experience.

What is software localization?

Simply put, software localization is a method of making software more user-friendly by aligning it with the cultural and technological elements of the intended client base. Translation, in particular, plays a leading role, allowing the process of localization from the original to the target language to proceed smoothly.

Software localization quality assessment standards

However, the process of perfecting the software localization is quite complicated. Each country will have different internet usage habits and its own language, culture and lifestyle. To evaluate a successfully localized software in terms of translation, the most basic criterion is that the description must have a style that is close to the target user, making it easy for them to visualize the contextual usage functions that appear in the software.

Frequently asked questions about app translation services


1. What kind of files do I need to send to localize my apps and software programs?

There are a variety of potential file formats, be they text-based (XML, RC, HTML, PO, PROPERTIES) or binary (XLSX, DLL, or EXE). Technically, you can send any of these file formats for localization.

But it’s important that when you send files to your language service provider, like Tomato, these files can easily be identified, and the text to be localized can easily be secured.


2. What tools are used to localize the application?

Choosing the right app localization tool is important in many ways, most notably because we want to ensure the effectiveness of the localization process while maintaining file integrity.

In essence, certain types of files work best with certain tools.

  • Visual software localization tools
  • Supporting tools or professional editing tools
  • Digital audio editing tools

So, depending on the project and the file format, Tomato will decide which tool is best.

After the tool is selected by the technical team for a particular project, it will be used to prepare resource files for direct transfer to the translation team.


3. What are the most typical app localization issues in a project?

The most common issues that we’ve put together are:

➤  Strings or text without unique IDs or identifiers

This makes it harder to reuse strings as part of a later update or next version release.

Think of using files with unique numbers or IDs per string.

➤  Some strings to be translated may be hard-coded by the developer

This means that it is not easy to extract text for translation. Consider keeping a localizable text file in a separate file so that it can be easily identified when sending the file.

➤  File format does not match our toolkit

The file may have a format that is not useful for localization. Use standard file types if possible.


4. How do you check a localized app?

The localization test phase is important to ensure that the localized version remains true to its original design. The level and type of testing usually performed are functional testing and language testing.

➤  Language test

This means that testers focus on language and verify the correct use of terminology in context while searching for incomplete translations, spelling errors, and grammar.

➤  Functional testing

This means that testers navigate the entire application to explore localization issues in layouts and strings that can affect user satisfaction.

The purpose of any testing phase is to detect and remedy any localization problems that are found. The most common problems are: string truncation, concatenation, untranslated words, etc.

The use of emulators is a common method for testing localized applications. This means that by changing the display language on your device to test your localized app, you can help verify that your content displays correctly.
