The task
English to Swedish translation of:
-
App interface
-
Library of activities and routines
-
App Store text
The app
The app has a clean look with 3 navigation tabs at the bottom:
-
Right now: a visual timer of what you are currently doing.
-
My day: a visual to-do list and calendar where you can add activities, routines and notes.
-
Me: profile and settings
Translating the UI
I focused on creating a Swedish version with straightforward language to make navigating and planning quick, easy and natural. I made sure to maintain consistency and clarity throughout. To make sure buttons and other shorter texts didn’t overflow, I tried to match the number of characters in translated words with the English reference as much as possible.
Review
I used TestFlight to review the app and corrected some shorter strings where the context had previously been unclear.
Testimonial
“We‘ve had the pleasure of using Märta for translating our app, Tiimo, into Swedish. Märta was able to quickly provide translated strings for very product-specific features and understand the overall domain in which the app fits.
Through a few test iterations that Märta made us aware of where necessary, the job was done before our short deadline, making it an absolute breeze to work with Märta and Noorgren.
We‘ve received quality work from Märta, and we're happy to recommend her to others in need of translation work in the app space.”
— Andreas Villumsen, Product Owner at Tiimo
