Configure language in Magento Mobile App with SimiCart

One of the biggest features of SimiCart is multi-language support, which means SimiCart can be translated to any kinds of languages, even RTL ones. In this post, I will guide you how to configure the language in the SimiCart mobile app.
Step 1. First, login to your administration
Step 2. Next, in App Information tab, go to Language

The SimiCart’s app is set default as American English. If you want to change, there are two ways:
(1) View and Edit inline
– Select the language you wish to translate. Here I choose Romanian

– A new screen will pop up and you can translate the original language to your language. In my case, I will translate all the text to Romanian

– Click Save to save all the work. Yoy will be directed to App Information tab (2) Edit and upload the CSV file You can also translate direct in thi CSV file

– Download the default CSV file.

– Open the file and you can translate the default language into your language. In my case, I add the Romanian language.

Note: if you have more than one store with different languages, please translate all of the language in one file. It will be automatically detected in the system for your store. For example, I have 4 stores namely English, Italian, German, Chinese so I will translate all the languages as in the image above. You can download translated csv file of 6 languages ( Italian, Greek, German, Chinese, Norwegian, Romanian) Language file for SimiCart.csv 

– Then upload the file to App Information tab

Here you go! You’ve finished configuring the Language for your Magento Mobile app with SimiCart! Now your app runs well with any language you’ve translated.

Why January is the best time to build a mobile app

Seeing the trend of mobile applications, many of store owners plan to build a mobile app in2015. One of their top concerns when approaching SimiCart is “When is the best  time to build their store a mobile app?”. Personally I think the best time is when you see the need to build a mobile application for your store and ready to get one.  No matter how easy the building proceed is, it still costs you time, money and quite a lot neuron. So it is important to start only when you are ready.
But if I have to give out a specific time, I would chooose January! Yes, it’s January when you ( and your customers also) are just back to work after a long holiday. Check the reasons “why January is the ideal month to build a Mobile app” in the below infographic!

SimiCart is offering Referral Program  from 13 January to 13 February. You get one free Magento mobile app when referring a friend successfully! Enough for you to run for and bring a Magento mobile app back yet?
