Localization support in Blink Receipt Camera UI

[kuldeepchander03]

I've integrated the Blink Receipt SDK into my application, which supports multiple languages. Could you please provide guidance on how to change the localization in the Blink Receipt SDK?

There are no extra steps you need to do. As longs as your locale is one of those that we support, our strings should change automatically. We currently support: English, Spanish and French. Is any of those the language you are testing with or you are testing with a different locale? Can you send us a screenshot or at least the code you are executing that is triggering that particular UI, if locale matches but you don’t see the corresponding strings.

My application also supports other locales, including Italian, Polish, and Romanian. Does the Blink Receipt SDK provide methods or properties that can be utilized to modify Enhanced Camera UX screen strings for all locales?

Do you have any updates on localisation string support?

@kuldeepchander03 I deleted my previous answer which was incorrect - we did release support for clients to use their own localizations. All you need to do is include a Localizable.strings file in your app bundle and we will load it at run time via NSLocalizedStringFromTableInBundle().

The strings that you can localize are here: https://github.com/BlinkReceipt/blinkreceipt-ios/blob/master/BlinkReceipt.xcframework/ios-arm64/BlinkReceipt.framework/en.lproj/Localizable.strings

thank you. It works for English, Spanish and French localization. Could you please add support for German localization as well?

We added support for you to localize your own strings, into any language you want, via the method above.

Hi @dpanzer, the dev team was able to implement the translations and it is now working. I miss translations for the chips (Date, Total, Merchant). Is it already possible to also translate this texts?

Unfortunately those strings are not currently localizable. We will fix this in an SDK update. In the meantime if this is critical you should be able to traverse the view hierarchy and modify them programmatically although this is a hack
