Translate your App Store listing into Catalan
Catalan (Català) — ≈9 million speakers, serving the App Store in Catalonia, Valencia, Balearic Islands (Spain), Andorra. Here’s what a Catalan localization is worth and how to ship one in minutes.
Why localize for Catalan?
Catalan speakers actively prefer apps that respect their language, and hardly any developers ship a ca listing — it's a loyalty play more than a reach play.
App Store search is per-locale: queries typed on the Catalonia storefront match against the ca localization of your metadata. Without one, your app doesn’t rank for Catalan searches at all — no matter how strong your English keywords are.
Catalan-specific translation tip
Catalan users also see your es-ES listing, so use the Catalan one to differentiate rather than duplicate — a localized subtitle alone earns goodwill.
StoreTranslate bakes language-specific guidance like this into its prompts, along with each field’s character limit and any custom instructions you add — brand terms to preserve, tone to match.
What gets translated
| Field | Limit (Catalan included) |
|---|---|
| App name | 30 characters |
| Subtitle | 30 characters |
| Promotional text | 170 characters |
| Description | 4,000 characters |
| Keywords | 100 characters |
| What's New (release notes) | 4,000 characters |
Field-level strategy lives in our guides on translating the description and translating keywords.
How it works
- Connect your App Store Connect API key — credentials are never stored.
- Pick your app, a version in an editable state, and Catalan (plus any other targets).
- Run the job. AI translates each selected field within its limit and uploads the ca localization via the App Store Connect API.
- Review in App Store Connect and submit with your next version.
