Hi all,
please vote for access to the Device Language setting
http://bugs.gamesalad.com/show_bug.cgi?id=289
Since the IAP are automatically localised to the Device Language, it is vital that we can offer a consistent experience to the user.
The Language setting (read from an game.attribute) would allow us to localise the app, consistent with the IAPs.
I believe it to be very important to have access to this info as soon as possible. @CodeWizard has previously mentioned that this info is already being tracked by GS. Hopefully it is a minor change to open this up to us.
If you do not want to use up one of your votes in the bug database (as this is more a given), please show your support in this thread.
Nice to have:
Additionally, there are a few related (non privacy infringing) attributes which would also open huge possibilities:
- Device Locale/Country
- Device Model and Manufacturer
- Device OS version
- Network and Carrier
- Device Memory
Comments
Yes, those would be handy.
Localization is one of THE TOP methods indies have to increase exposure. Localizing for smaller countries gives you a chance of higher appstore ranking in the applicable country, increasing visibility and downloads.
Yeah this will be great for localization. Already Gamesalad provide us IAPs local currency etc.
If implamenting this is easy, maybe the new RC inludes this feature ?
What do you say @BlackCloakGS ?
