Not able to localise NSLocalNetworkUsageDescription.

Hi Team,

I want to keep my custom message for the key "NSLocalNetworkUsageDescription" and hence want the localisation. But the localisation for this key is not working , It always take the value from the default value from the Info.plist

But for other keys like "NSCameraUsageDescription" and "NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription" I am using ,is working fine.

How can i achieve this ?

/BR,
Abhishek

Like you, I’d expect this to work in the same way that other usage description keys work. If that’s not the case, you should file a bug about that. It would help if you included a tiny test project demonstrating the issue.

Please post your bug number, just for the record.

Did it work for you @Abhishek? I am seeing the same issue.
This issue still occurs in yesterday's iOS 14 beta 7. Worse still, localized apps display the base-language custom message from the info.plist under a localized title and with localized action buttons, and thus ensure complete confusion for end users. I prefer now not to customize it and leave users with the misleading but pre-localized default description, which at least they can try to understand in their own language. I filed a bug report but have little hope that any human will ever read it.

I filed a bug report

What was the bug number?

This issue still occurs in yesterday's iOS 14 GM seed. When will it be resolved ?

Correct.

When will it be resolved?

I don’t have any concrete info to share on that front )-: I recommend that you continue testing with post-iOS 14 beta releases as they are seeded.

Still occurs in iOS 14 GM seed. My bug report FB8626851 stills says "Recent Similar Reports: None".

Can someone test this in the current 14.2 beta seed? I suspect it might be fixed there but I’m not set up to test this myself.

Hi Quinn,

I just tested with iOS 14.2 Beta and can confirm, that the translated string for NSLocalNetworkUsageDescription (from InfoPlist.strings) is used in the system alert. Now it works like expected.

Thanks, Andy
