Auto-translation Overview

All English content in the Content Management System (CMS) is automatically translated and available in French. This works across our full product line, both Driftscape for Web and the Driftscape mobile app. This functionality is achieved by utilizing the power of a Google Translation (API) Application Programming Interface behind the scenes to continuously translate content as it is edited and changed in the CMS.

How to Change Language within a POI

For Driftscape users, it’s as simple as opening any Point of Interest (POI) and switching the language selector from ‘English’ to ‘Francais’:

All CMS content is translated automatically.  Here are some examples:

How to Change Default Language for the App

The default language for the app can be changed from the app menu (mobile and Driftscape for Web):

For the iOS and Android apps: after clicking on the ‘3 bars’ in top left corner to access the Settings menu, change the Language:
 

In Driftscape for Web: from the Main Menu [click ‘3 bars’ in top left corner], change the Language:

Auto-translation works in conjunction with our Multilingual Content. If you have created your own translations for POIs, they will be displayed instead of the Auto-translations.

In the CMS, no action is required by Driftscape’s partners and customers to enable Auto-translation.  All English content is translated to French whenever you add or edit it (unless you have entered your own French content with our multilingual support).

Additional Auto-translation languages will be added in the near future, if there is a language you would like to see added, please inquire.
