Apps include resources that can be specific to a particular culture. For example, an app can include culture-specific strings that are translated to the language of the current locale. It's a good practice to keep culture-specific resources separated from the rest of your app. Android resolves language- and culture-specific resources based on the system locale setting. You can provide support for different locales by using the resources directory in your Android project.

1. Open Admin Dashboard and go to: Settings → Languages
2. Create your custom language
3. Open file manager or use FTP and go to: ci_files/app/Language
4. Duplicate en folder with your custom language code (ISO 639-1 Code). For more information click here

When you have translated strings.xml files, your project has multiple corresponding values folders with suffixes that indicate the language, such as values-es for Spanish. Your default strings.xml file is always in the values (no suffix) folder.

Users following links on devices have one goal in mind: to get to the content they want to see. As a developer, you can set up Android App Links to take users to a link's specific content directly in your app, bypassing the app-selection dialog, also known as the disambiguation dialog. Because Android App Links leverage HTTP URLs and association with a website, users who don't have your app installed go directly to content on your website. So we suggest you to purchase both Android and Website version.

Deep links are URIs of any scheme that take users directly to a specific part of your app. First of all, you need Digital Asset Links. To generate and test Digital Asset Links follow the steps below:

1. Open Statement List Generator and Tester.
2. Enter the hosting site domain, app package name and App package fingerprint (SHA256).
3. Click on the Generate statement buttom.
4. Then you will see the json statement code. Copy these codes and save them in a file called assetlinks.json
5. Upload statement file to your hosting, https://www.youdomain.com/.well-known/assetlinks.json.
6. After uploading, enter the address in your browser and make sure that the file will open with https.
7. After waiting for a few minutes, then click on the Test statement button. If the confirmation message is displayed, you have done the settings correctly.

● To open your android app via Deep Link, use: https://www.yourdomain.com/run , If the application is installed on the user's phone, it will be opened, otherwise it will be referred to the application download page.
