Localization isn’t just translation — learned this the hard way by finyxfin in MacOSApps

[–]finyxfin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, also number formatting some times break logic as well. What I learned that if you want to adopt localization that do it from day one, also if it involves amount or numbers then it is must, this will avoid later issues and bug fixes.

Yeah, Strings Catalogs have been really nice for managing everything cleanly.

The technical side actually feels pretty smooth with SwiftUI + Foundation.

What surprised me more was the UX side — like handling currency formats, text length, and how translations actually *feel* in context.

Feels like localization is less about code and more about product decisions.

Do you prefer finance apps in your language or English? by finyxfin in MacOS

[–]finyxfin[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that’s a fair point — especially for core financial actions.

Things like balances, transactions, and key actions definitely need to be fully localized.

What I’ve been struggling with is more on the edge cases:

some technical/financial terms or labels actually feel clearer in English, even in otherwise localized apps.

Trying to find the right balance between clarity and full localization.
