Hello. I have a problem related with infoPlist.strings. I add 3 languages to the app but only one of them works. Changing the app language from "Settings" doesn't work.

https://prnt.sc/1xa6kg4

No mather what I choose as a language from Settings, app name becomes SS3. There wasn't a problem like this before, it was running. I assume it stopped working when I upgraded to Xcode 13, but I am not sure.

I found an interesting thing.

When I switch the language of the phone to Turkish, the Turkish InfoPlist.strings file is working and when I switch the language of the phone to English, the English InfoPlist.strings file is working.

But, when I switch the language of the app to English and when the current language of the phone is Turkish, the working InfoPlist.strings is still Turkish.

Can it help us to solve this problem?

How did you test ? In simulator ?

Did you change the device language in simulator ?

I've made tests on simulator and the real device. Yes, I changed the language, multiple times. The link you sent didn't help, I already followed the steps there. I deleted and installed again but nothing changed.

I can’t think of an obvious reason why this would fail. And, given that the advice here hasn’t resolved the issue, I recommend that you open a DTS tech support incident and get one-on-one help from our localisation specialist.
