LANGKIT FORMATS

Apple .strings Localization for iOS and macOS

Keep Apple app language resources reviewable as source keys evolve.

Work with supported Apple strings files and review changed localized interface messages.

Apple strings files

Apple .strings files are widely used for translated UI labels. LangKit supports basic import and export workflows for these entries.

Separate owner and translator access

Project owners control source changes. Translators can be assigned particular locales and allowed to submit suggested versions without overwriting released values.

Test before shipping

Escaping, comments and newer String Catalog workflows can behave differently from plain .strings files. Check the generated resource in Xcode before publishing.

Common questions

Can I import .strings files?

Supported .strings content can be imported.

Does the platform generate .xcstrings catalogs?

Not as a fully verified lossless round-trip in this release.

Before relying on this in production

Confirm support for your resource syntax and test exported translations in your application. Documentation describes supported workflows, not a guarantee of lossless conversion for every specialized format.
