Apty enables you to auto-translate your content like Workflows, Tooltips, Launchers, and Announcements using Google API. Making your applications accessible in different languages also improves the user experience for your site’s international users. For example, you can configure Workflows to be displayed in Spanish for Spanish-speaking users.
Note:
- Auto Translation only impacts the Apty Content displayed using the Apty Client.
- You can change the language for your Admin Portal and Apty Studio UI using Internationalization. To learn more, see Internationalization - Change the language of your Apty Components.
