Does a great job, very fast and easy to implement. Supports the most popular languages. I just had to create all the localization keys & code before almost single-clicking to translate them all.
What needs improvement
I wish it could copy the typefacing approach somehow capitalizing the initial letters for readability. Also, I wish it supported Hindi if possible, since this is available via the Apple API. Also, it crashed while I was using it, but I'm sure it was because of the way I was working in Xcode. It didn't break anything, and can be prevented by following the YouTube video.

I saw it posted on r/iOSProgramming/ and knew one day it may be of use to me

Hi Product Hunt community! 👋
I'm Andrii, an iOS developer with 8 years of experience. I created XCStrings Translator after repeatedly facing the challenge of localizing apps quickly without sharing data with third-party services.
This tool uses Apple's built-in Translation API to process everything directly on your Mac - providing quality translations without compromising privacy. It's designed to be straightforward and efficient, cutting localization time from hours to minutes.
I'd love to hear your feedback and how this tool might help your development workflow!
I'm available to answer any questions about iOS localization best practices or help troubleshoot your specific localization challenges. Just drop a comment below
Finally, a privacy-focused Xcode tool! Can it auto-sync translated strings back to Xcode projects, or is it a manual export process? And can it deal with image localization?

@desmond_ren1 it syncs automatically! Just one click and it’s done.
I am planning images translations in future version.
