Add localizations to Xcode that are used often

I need to localize often the same phrases like "No ads" in different apps. Is there any way to add words/phrases that I often localize so that Xcode localize them automatically?

Solution

  • Use the function

    func NSLocalizedString(
    key: String,
    tableName: String? = default,
    bundle: NSBundle = default,
    value: String = default,
    comment: String) -> String

    In your project create a strings file with same format as default one (Localizable.strings). Then you can add the localisation for different languages.

    To use it (assume the file name in your bundle is myCommonsStrings.strings :

    let noAdd = NSLocalizedString(key: "NoAdd",
                              tableName: "myCommonsStrings",
                              comment: "No add string”)
