Description:

Use your apps in different languages at the same time.

Have you ever wondered what your favourite apps look like in another language? Normally the only way to do this is to change the entire system's language. But now, with Language Switcher, you can open any of your applications in any of its localisations - at least 15 for most Apple software - without changing anything else. And that can be very useful, especially for language students.

Immerse yourself in the language you’re studying by using your instant messaging, image editing and other favourite apps in it. Use it for your word processor too - so, for example, you see "Enregistrer Sous…" instead of "Save As…" when you're doing French composition, just as if you were in France!


• Browse through the contents of your Applications folder

• Add any applications that you've put elsewhere

• Search for specific apps with handy search-as-you-type

• See what languages are available for each of your apps

• Launch apps in new languages instantly


Language Switcher in Education

With Language Switcher, it’s easy for you to give students the real-world experience of using foreign languages on their computers with applications they know and use everyday.

And with a diverse range of languages built-in to most Apple software alone there are lots of opportunities for you to nurture their skills and interest in languages at all levels.

So if you are a language teacher and find it useful, please spread the word to colleagues.

And if you use it a lot, please think about the number of students it helps every year and consider asking your institution to make a one-off donation. Many thanks!
