Hi folks,
Just upgraded to a new phone and I'd like to mention a couple of points
regarding the Remote and languages not shipped with the phone (Scottish
Gaelic). First thing I do is install the Custom Locale app to convince
my phone it speaks Gaelic because few apps actually give you a choice of
language, they blindly assume you always want your app interface
language to be the same as your phone OS language; #badfail but anyway.
The Google Play didn't show the Gaelic translation I provided in Pootle
but it may not have gotten pushed to live yet. The installation went
fine and hey presto, it pops up in Gaelic. The annoying thing though is
that right there on the main screen I get "A' lorg..." Is that
something I need to fix or is that a bug?
My other recommendation would be that for each string that will go on a
mobile app we give a recommendation of string length. It would help -
within reason - to avoid truncated strings to a certain extent before
something goes to live. Given it only works on Linux right now that's
not too much of an issue for my locale but further down the line that
might get frustrating for users.
