I know it was talked about in #1 but nothing has changed since, use crowdin or maybe you can even implement in app translation tool like lingva or deepL

There's no official android way to translate databases. So I still didn't figure out a way to translate the database.

However, as a workaround I added the Copy Info button to copy text and translate it with translator apps such as "Google Translate" . Hope it helps!

Many people have asked me to translate the database. I would love to do that, but it's a complex task. The data is stored in a sqlite database format that's not supported by Crowdin, and it would take a lot of time and effort to translate it all.

I'll take a look at your suggestions, and I'll keep this issue open until I have a better idea of how to make it happen.

I was able to successfully add lingva translation feature to this app. There are some improvements to be done so it will take some time to publish a new release.

Thank you for your suggestions.
