Availability: Translations are in beta. We are adding more languages, and would like your feedback!
The Litmaps app is available in three languages besides English:
Português (Brasil)
Español
Deutsch
Menus, buttons, messages and settings appear in your language. Article titles, abstracts and author names stay in the language they were published in.
How Litmaps picks your language
Litmaps follows your browser's language. If your browser is set to Portuguese, Spanish or German, Litmaps opens in that language. For any other language, it opens in English.
How to change your language
Click your account in the sidebar
Click "Preferences"
Choose a language from the "Language" menu
The app switches straight away. Choose "Browser language" to follow your browser again.
Your choice is saved to your account, so it follows you when you sign in on another computer.
How to report a translation problem
We've just translated Litmaps, and some wording will read wrong. Researchers who use Litmaps in these languages help us find it.
The first time you use Litmaps in a translated language, a box in the corner asks how the translation reads. Pick an answer, tell us what to fix and click "Send feedback". It asks once for each language.
You can also message us at any time using the chat icon in the Litmaps app. It helps most when you:
Quote the wording that's wrong
Say where you saw it, such as the page or button
Suggest the word you'd expect
Translations – FAQ
I don't see the Language setting. Why?
Translations are reaching accounts in stages. If you don't see the setting yet, you'll get it soon. Until then, you can translate the app with your browser, as described in Litmaps in Your Language.
Will you add my language?
We're planning more languages. Message us with the chat icon to tell us which one you need. Until then, browser translation works for any language.
Are the help guides translated?
Not yet. Right-click a guide in Google Chrome and choose "Translate to..." to read it in your language.
