Hi all,

I plan on releasing an android app (tier 1) with support for multiple languages.

AGK makes it easy to set language using GetDeviceLanguage() to find out the device's language, and an array of strings for each language.

However, I'd like to offer the app with the app name changed (on the play store and in android menu) for each language - has anyone tried this before, and could provide a bit of advice?

Thanks very much,
Shock.

Ah I somehow didn't notice the translation part in the developer console, thanks.

Also, for testing purposes, simply add &hl=language such as &hl=es to the end of the play store URL to see what it will look like in that specific language.

I'll do a bit of research into the app name in the android menu and i'll update this thread if I find anything useful.
