Global Market Expansion

Your app is global. Your listing should be too.

Google Play supports custom store listings in 70+ languages. When users in Spain, Brazil, Germany, or Japan search in their own language, they find and install apps with localized listings that match their search terms. Machine translation won't get you there. Keyword-researched, culturally adapted localization will.

Why machine translation kills organic installs

A translated listing and a localized listing are not the same thing. The difference shows up directly in your install numbers.

Machine-translated listing

Technically correct. Commercially useless.

Google Translate produces sentences a native speaker can understand, but won't find in search, won't relate to emotionally, and won't install because of. It translates words, not intent.

  • Translates English keywords, misses local search terms entirely
  • Generic phrasing that doesn't match local user expectations
  • Awkward sentence structures that undermine credibility
  • No understanding of which benefits resonate in each market
  • Same conversion rate as having no localization at all
Our professional localization

Built for how that market actually searches.

We research the keywords real users in each target market type into Google Play, then write store copy that speaks their language naturally. It's not translated from English, but written with their search intent in mind from the start.

  • Keyword research specific to each target market
  • Native-level copywriting, not translation
  • Culturally appropriate benefit framing per locale
  • Delivered as Play Console–ready custom store listing files
  • Covers title, short description, and full description per language
Top markets

Highest-impact languages for Android apps

These five markets represent the largest untapped organic install volume for English-language apps that haven't localized yet.

Portuguese (Brazil)

Brazil is the world's largest Android market by volume after the US, China, and India. Brazilian Portuguese users install heavily and have strong app store engagement rates.

Spanish (Latin America & Spain)

Spanish covers 20+ countries. A localized listing reaches Mexico, Colombia, Argentina, Spain, and more: 500 million native speakers on Android devices.

German

Germany, Austria, and Switzerland have high Android penetration and above-average spending per user. German users are especially sensitive to the quality of localized copy.

Hindi

India is the fastest-growing Android market globally. Hindi localization reaches hundreds of millions of users who primarily search and browse in their native language.

French

France, Belgium, Canada, and numerous African markets. French is the second most-studied language globally and unlocks significant organic volume across multiple regions.

Indonesian

Indonesia is a massive, mobile-first Android market with huge install volume. Localizing for this region is one of the fastest ways to scale your user base globally.

Japanese & Korean

Two of the highest-revenue markets globally. Success here requires deep cultural adaptation in both phrasing and visual storytelling to meet unique local expectations.

Other Languages

Italian, Arabic, Turkish, Thai, and more. Contact us with your specific target markets and we'll confirm availability and quote accordingly.

How it works

From English listing to global markets

Share your listing & markets

Provide your current English store listing and confirm which languages/markets you want to target. We recommend starting with 3.

We research each market

For each language, we run separate keyword research to identify what users in that market actually search, not just translated English terms.

We write the localized copy

Native-level writers produce keyword-integrated title, short description, and long description for each language, then review it for cultural accuracy.

You publish custom listings

We deliver Play Console–ready files. You add each language in Play Console under "Store Presence → Store Listings" and it's live within minutes.

Frequently asked questions

Why can't I just use Google Translate for my Play Store listing?
Machine translation produces text a native speaker can read, but won't find in search. It translates your English keywords rather than identifying the keywords that market actually uses. It also misses cultural differences in how benefits should be framed. The result: a technically translated listing that converts no better than having no localization at all.
Do I need to have my English listing optimized first?
Yes, and strongly recommended. We localize from your English source listing. If that copy is weak, the localized versions will also be weak. Our ASO Listing Optimization service can prepare your English listing first if needed, so ask about bundling both.
Which languages do you support?
We support all languages available in Google Play's custom store listing system: Spanish, Portuguese (Brazil & Portugal), French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Hindi, Arabic, Turkish, Indonesian, and more. Contact us with your specific target markets for a confirmed availability and price quote.
How long does localization take?
A standard 3-language localization package is typically delivered within 5–7 business days. Larger packages (5+ languages) take 8–12 business days. Expedited timelines are available; contact us to discuss.
