CheckLang 1.0
Review app translations and share feedback
CheckLang helps translators, QA reviewers, and localization teams review macOS app translations.
Pick any installed app from your Applications folder and CheckLang scans its localization files to show every string side by side with the original language. Browse languages in the sidebar, search and filter the list, and add your own suggestions and comments directly in the table. When you are done, export your feedback as CSV or PDF and send it to the developer team.
CheckLang is built for real-world localization review: it focuses on the standard Localizable.strings files used by most Mac apps, keeps your recent apps handy, and remembers where you left off. Whether you are proofreading a French release, checking missing translations, or collecting feedback from native speakers, CheckLang turns a scattered review into a clear, shareable report.
Simple, focused, and free, CheckLang is the easy way to review app translations on your Mac and help developers to get it right.
