jason0404 Review Android localization resources using the default values/strings.xml file as the base reference unless the project indicates a different source of truth.
Check
- Missing and extra string keys across locale folders.
- Duplicate keys and inconsistent resource naming.
- Placeholder mismatches including
%s,%1$s,%d, formatted HTML and${app_name_normal}style brand substitutions. - Incorrect Android locale qualifiers, such as regional variants.
- Hardcoded user-visible strings in XML or Kotlin where discoverable.
- Escaping problems with apostrophes, ampersands, CDATA or markup.
- Brand text leaking into the wrong flavour.
- Translation expansion risks in dialogs, tabs, buttons and fixed-size layouts.
