In Bombr 1.2 I added a half-assed French localization, over time adding more strings to localize I've decided to drop the French localization. In Bombr 1.2.1 I removed the reference to fr.lproj/Localizable.strings from the Xcode project but the file still exists. Now that 1.2.1 is on the app store it still says that French is a supported language.
Will removing the fr.lproj folder and resubmitting correctly display the supported languages (this is my hunch), or is it possibly that iTunes Connect will not allow you to drop support for a language?
(I took a year of French in high school for fun, but not enough to translate my own app.)
回答1:
try to look at the info.plist which defines localizations and I guess some work in iTunesConnect should be done as well, but before approving an app
回答2:
If you want to remove app metadata localization, there's a delete menu on iTunesConnect
回答3:
Building on the answer given by @vanya, select your project from the list and delete the language under in the "localization" section.
回答4:
To remove the localization from Xcode (I'm using 4.2 on Snow Leopard) click on the file/folder in the sidebar, "Localizable.strings" and open the File Inspector (keyboard shortcut cmd-opt-1 or View > Utilities > Show File Inspector in the menu bar). You'll see a Localization pane with your localizations listed. Select the one you want to remove and click the minus sign to delete it.

So I landed on this question, but with some specific criteria:
- I want to remove the base development language (English)
- I want to keep the localized language (French)
None of the above answers worked and I couldn't find anything better on Stack Overflow. Eventually I found this gem: XCode: Remove localizations on build.
I develop in English, so the entire base of the app is in the English localisation. I then translated it into Finnish for the first release, but the intention was to only release the Finnish content and not the English.
Setting up a small script during a final Build phase works wonders to strip unwanted localisations:
#Remove english
rm -r "${TARGET_BUILD_DIR}/${PRODUCT_NAME}.app/en.lproj"
# Remove base (iOS 9)
rm -r "${TARGET_BUILD_DIR}/${PRODUCT_NAME}.app/Base.lproj"
Then I had some runtime errors because some Storyboard files were localized and located in the Base.lproj folder. I worked around this by doing the following:
- Un-localized those Storyboards (unchecked all languages) and then "Moved to trash"
- Dragged the Storyboards from the trash back into the project. (Basically moving the Storyboards from Base.lproj folder – which the script would delete – to the project folder.)
Note: none of these Storyboards were actually localized (the .strings files were all empty). All the translations were properly set in code using NSLocalizedString.
