Background
When releasing the Home Feed to Android, we received feedback, especially from our major languages like German, that the feed and feature were appearing in English. Spanish-speaking users reported confusion about the announcement because it was all in English. Because this is a major app change, we will prioritize translation of the UI for the top 6 most used app languages to ease the transition.
Task
Required:
- Bring in existing translations for Topics list used in onboarding (used in Android, and on Growth extension)
- Dmitry: Here is our script that I vibe-coded to fetch the translations for all the Topic names. These should definitely not need to be duplicated through TranslateWiki.
- Ensure release happens after the app has consumed a translatewiki update (surface during release conversations)
Nice toi have
- Explore if there's a way to automate finding & bringing the relevant translations from the android repo over to iOS
- If not possible, see if we can add all the copy strings to translate.wiki early, so volunteers can work on them before release
Note: Design can help with creation of copy doc if needed.
