Auto Localize is an editor for localization files (XLIFF,XCLOC,...) enabling automatic localization of projects developed in programming tools like XCode, Java, Android Studio, .NET, Unity, and Flutter. It is powered by OpenAI's most advanced GPT models. It's a free editor for manual localization, but the auto localization requires a subscription.

Auto Localize FAQ

Do I need an API key?+

No, Apple Intelligence works without a key on macOS 26+; OpenAI and Gemini require your own keys, LM Studio and Ollama run locally.

Are my strings sent to Auto Localize?+

Never. Strings are sent only to the AI provider you choose or stay on your machine; there is no Auto Localize server.

Will it change my files in strange ways?+

No. Files are written exactly as Xcode expects, preserving order, formatting and comments, with backups and undo support.

Which localization formats are supported?+

String Catalogs, XLIFF 1.2/2.0, .xcloc, .strings, .stringsdict, Interface Builder strings, Android XML, Flutter ARB, Java .properties, .NET .resx, JSON, and Unity via XLIFF.

What macOS version is required?+

macOS 14 Sonoma or later; Apple Intelligence needs macOS 26 or later on a supported Mac.
