The trick is probably the getting paid part. I would love to have my app translated into as many languages as possible and if you are interested in translating my app I can send you the strings.xml file right now! But having sold less than 100 copies at $2.99 AUD (minus Google's cut), of an app which took several months development time, I'd need to translate it into a language a lot more popular than it's current English in order to recoup the costs of development, let alone to pay someone else.

Out of curiousity, how much would translation cost?

Kind regards

Quentin.

So Google Play has a huge amount of different apps and games and often I see people waiting for localization of certain app or game because they don't speak English. This makes me wondering - who doe the localization? Search gives only tips for those who want to translate their app, but not for those who would like to assist translating them. I work as a freelance translator and want to help those people, who don't speak English by translating apps and games and maybe even get paid for that. So does anyone know how to?
