Default language in phonegap / cordova application

Question

I have hybrid mobile application written in JavaScript and packaged using PhoneGap Build. Application language is other than English but in application stores (Google Play, WindowsMobile store and Apple iTunes Store) it is announced to be in English and users are confused.

Is there any way to tell the PhoneGap Build that application is in a specific language? Maybe some settings in config.xml.

Answer 1

You use the stores themselves to define this.

For example, the Apple store: https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/LanguagesUtilities/Conceptual/iTunesConnect_Guide/Chapters/DisplayInMoreLanguages.html

Answer 2

@Pavel, the title you used is incorrect. You want to add Internationalization/Localization Support, and make that support show up in your app store listing.

Here is your answer:

You also want to use the term i18n
