FAQ
Which file formats does iPocketXLIFF support?
It currently supports XLIFF 1.2, 2.0, and Xcode's .xcloc catalog packages. With its deep Xcode integration, you can directly drag and drop .xcloc files for editing.
How do I use the AI translation feature?
You can configure your own OpenAI or DeepSeek API Key in Settings (BYOK mode). Then, click the 'AI Translate' button in the editor to batch-process selected or untranslated rows.
Will AI translation break code placeholders?
iPocketXLIFF includes a placeholder validation engine that strictly protects format strings like %@ and %d during translation, performing a final check before application to prevent app crashes.
Is it a native application?
Yes, it is developed with 100% SwiftUI, optimized for macOS, supporting the latest system design languages with high performance.
What about data security?
Your API Key is securely stored in the system Keychain. The translation process happens locally between your machine and the model API; we do not store any of your translation data.
