  • Fixed custom placeholder issue on Safari.

  • Fixed a file format issue that occurred when the translatable string of an entry was also a substring of the key.


November 2018

Enhancements

  • New languages were added to our list: Turkish (Germany) (tr_DE), Spanish (Saudi Arabia) (es_SA), Chamorro (ch).
