    What is pseudolocalization?

    Pseudolocalization is a quick way to find out if your app is ready to send for translation. We return a valid strings file based on source texts where English is replaced by a fake Chinese or French (see image). Load up this pseudo-localized strings file and run your app. Don't forget to set your System language accordingly.


    A look at "European" pseudolocalization.
    Just drop it in your fr.lproj folder and run it with your system set to French.

    Check every screen and make sure all the text appears as the pseudo-localized text rather than your original. If you can't spot any missing strings, you're good to go.

    A common rule of thumb is that most European languages are 30% longer than English, so tiny buttons and titles may not fit when you localize. Pseudolocalization can help you spot those cramped spaces too!
