BlueFinity Evoke Now Offers Multiple Language Options When Developing Apps

BlueFinity is introducing the release of its multiple language version of Evoke, providing for end-users, of apps built using Evoke, to be able to see the User Interface in their preferred language—as well as being able to adopt the cultural context of multiple countries.

By providing localized content in a user's native language it improves their experience, builds trust, and can create a significant competitive advantage, according to BlueFinity.

Apps built using the Evoke Low-Code platform can be deployed to staff and customers in multiple parts of the world or countries where languages vary, reflecting both the local language/users chosen language and local preferences such as local currency without changing the design of the app.

Evoke now offers the means to allow for the translation of all the words and phrases designed into the app’s UI (through Google Translate or similar products) as a one-off exercise. As a result, when apps are generated by Evoke, it is as simple as selecting one or a series of different languages to reflect the language/nationalities of the potential users. This means that apps can be presented in one or more predefined languages to different users with all ISO language codes supported, the company said.

The App designer can set the language to be used by groups of users or to configure the system so that the end-users of the app (customers, staff) can select their own preferred language and individually save for future use.

The “by user” element helps particularly where multiple languages are used in small geographical areas. Thereafter, all the buttons, menus, headings, instructions, etc. in the app UI will appear in the chosen language. 

Evoke’s multiple language capabilities are only part of Evoke’s wider ‘Culture’ options. These provide for preferences such as a preferred date format and chosen currency symbols to be set either company-wide or by the individual end-users of the app, the company said.

“The addition of an easy-to-use multi language element allows our customers to deploy their Evoke-based apps to reach a wider audience, increase engagement with customers, and boost their potential revenue and scalability,” said Malcolm Carroll, director of BlueFinity.
