Context
In part 1 of the Per-App Language Preferences blog, we discussed what the feature is, how developers benefit from it, how to implement the feature, and the strong business impact of catering to multilingual users. In this part of the blog, we'll discuss how various top apps migrated to the Per-App Languages Feature and how it benefited them.
Developer Success Stories
Due to the several regions they cover, it becomes important to support multiple languages in the app. LinkedIn supports 26 Languages in their app right now, and this brings forward an opportunity to provide the users with the best experiences of latest android features. With this as the target, the LinkedIn team invested their efforts in migrating to the new Per-App Language Preferences APIs, and went ahead to provide their consumers the complete flexibility and features of Android 13. The team also quoted, “It was an easy integration with minimal code changes”.
MyJio is the-one-stop destination for recharges, managing accounts & Jio devices, UPI & payments, entertainment services with movies, music, news, games, quizzes & a lot more. With over 500 M+ total installs spread across the globe, MyJio aims to provide its users better access to a variety of utilities. Also as the user-base of MyJio is quite vast, the app supports a total of over 12+ Languages. With these many features and a wide diversity of active multilingual users, MyJio has a strong reason to localize their app using the best practices.
MyJio developers implemented the Per App Language Preferences APIs right along with the Android 13 release, allowing their users the flexibility to select a language for their app from system settings as well.
FROM THE DEVELOPERS : The ease of integrating the API helped us get it done effortlessly in less than a week’s time. Backward compatibility and stability of the API ensured that we are not compromising on the experience of our customers. With this, we hope to provide a better experience to the customer in their journey of online ordering via Zomato. |
