FAQs
What a developer asks before putting a snippet in production.
What is in-context translation editing?
Editing the words of your product while looking at the screen they appear on, instead of finding the key in a spreadsheet and hoping. You hold ALT, click the text in your own running app, and the panel that opens is the translation, what memory already has for it and the checks that ran on it.
Do I have to be a developer to use it?
No, and that is the point. A developer adds the snippet once. After that a marketer, a product manager or an outside translator opens the site, clicks a word and fixes it, without a ticket and without a deploy.
What does the snippet ship to my users?
Nothing visible. Mounting the SDK installs the machinery and stays inert; editing mode only turns on when your own app calls it, so you gate it on your own may-review-translations check. The key it carries is read only.
Can somebody with the key write translations?
No. The read-only key can fetch, and nothing else. A write requires a nonce issued by your backend and a session that passes the project role check.
Does it work in a native mobile app?
The overlay is built for web surfaces. Native projects use the console editor and the file formats, including .strings, .stringsdict, .xcstrings and Android XML, all of which round-trip with plurals intact.
How long are screenshots kept?
Ninety days, then they are deleted. They exist so a refused row can be reviewed with its real context, not as a permanent archive of your product.
Which plan includes it?
The overlay ships from the Starter plan. Once you are on a paid plan, suggesting in context is free for reviewers on that workspace: the plan decides seats and word volume, not how many people may fix a string.
Will it break my styling?
No. The overlay draws itself inside a shadow root, so its own CSS cannot reach your page and your page cannot reach into it. Nothing about your stylesheet has to change.

Stop guessing where the string is.
No credit card. The overlay ships from the Starter plan, and installing it is one line in your app.
