Lokalise is our crowd-sourced app translation software. It allows us to put all of the text we need translated online, so that our users can collectively help us out in making Any.do available in dozens of languages. All users who become part of the Translators Community instantly become free Premium members for the duration of their contribution!

The following user-types can take advantage of this feature:

Premium users.

Teams users.
🛠️ How does it work?
The way Lokalise works, is that we have projects for our iOS app, Android app, and Web App. These projects contain every piece of text that we use in our app. Our Lokalise users can then find any segment of text, called a "key," that they're capable of translating and add that key in another language.
We're always happy to have new users joining our translation team! First, make sure you're able to translate to one of the languages we are currently supporting and then submit apply to become a translator per the details below.
Once you're approved as a translator, you will immediately get access to the app's Premium version.
The Premium status is available for the duration of your contribution but will be removed for inactive users.
