How to Add Translations to Your Content in the STQRY Builder

If you need to add additional languages to your app and tours, follow these steps to ensure your content is accessible to a wider audience.

Step 1: Add a Secondary Language to Your Project

Choose Projects >> your app >> Overview >> select the language(s) you want to add to your app.

Step 2: Add Translation for Your Content

You can upload your translated content or use our built-in Google Translate tool.

Option 1: Upload your translated content

You first need to add the translated content to the tour/list overview page, and do the same for each of the screens within that tour/list. Then add the new language as a secondary language to the app overview page.

Collections

1. Open the tour/list you want to add another language to.
2. On the Overview page, choose a new language from the drop-down under Add a language.
3. Add translations for the Tour titles and tour Introduction.

Screens

1. Open the screen you want to add another language to >> choose a new language from the drop-down under Add a language.
2. Add translations for the Screen titles and tour elements including Text and any Section titles.

Media

Similarly, open the media files and add new translations to the images, audio and videos. If you don't have translations for the image caption, attribution, or description, you can skip this step. Missing content defaults to the primary language.

Option 2: Use our built-in Google Translate tool

Instead of uploading translations, you can copy content from the primary language or translate it with our built-in Google Translate tool.

You can hide a content section in a certain language by choosing the content section and toggling the "Hide for [language]" button.

For screen content, it's important to translate the text for each individual language, as text is saved per language. For media files, you can select the file once and then assign all the necessary languages. Media files are saved per file, not per language. Read the help article about screen and media files to learn how to add translations.

When adding or removing a language, the STQRY team must be notified so the app can be rebuilt and submitted again. Once the app is live, end users can select their preferred language when they first open the app. They can change it later from the language dropdown in the app settings.
