FAQs
-
What are translation keys?
One translation key can be translated into many language translations. This approach makes your costs more predictable. It is different from a 'translation' or 'string'. -
What are auto-translation characters?
An auto-translation character is a character that is sent from your source translation to an external service (Google Translate, DeepL, OpenAI) to be translated, spell-checked, or undergo other AI operations. For example, 'Hello World' uses 10 auto-translation characters. -
Do auto-translate characters rollover?
Yes, unused auto-translation characters rollover to the following months and they are valid until your subscription plan is active. You can also buy additional auto-translation characters for a one-time payment that do not expire. -
What are alternative translations?
Alternative translations are translations that help you to create white label version of your app. You can replace any translation with an alternative translation for a given customer. -
What is a difference between project member and contributor?
A project member is a person who has access to the project and can manage translations and keys. A contributor is a person who can suggest translations via the public suggestions page, but cannot manage keys or translations directly.
