| 8 | + |
| 9 | +:::info[Prerequisites] |
| 10 | +Before troubleshooting translation issues, make sure you’ve completed: |
| 11 | + |
| 12 | +- The **[Google Translate Integration](/concepts/localization/#add-multi-language-support)** setup. |
| 13 | +- Added at least one supported language under your **App Settings > Localization** section. |
| 14 | +::: |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | +FlutterFlow integrates with Google Translate to help localize your app automatically. This guide walks you through common translation issues and how to fix them effectively. |
| 17 | + |
| 18 | +## Common Google Translate Errors |
| 19 | + |
| 20 | +- **Long Texts Cause Failure** |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | + If you're translating long paragraphs or form content: |
| 23 | + |
| 24 | + - **Cause**: The Google Translate API may time out or error with large blocks of text. |
| 25 | + - **Fix**: Translate the content outside FlutterFlow, then paste it back into the appropriate field. Ensure the input is cleared before retrying. |
| 26 | + |
| 27 | +- **Unsupported Special Characters** |
| 28 | + |
| 29 | + If your app uses unusual symbols or character sets: |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | + - **Cause**: Google Translate API may reject special characters. |
| 32 | + - **Fix**: Remove or replace characters such as emojis or non-Latin characters. Retry the translation afterward. |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | +- **More Than 10 Languages Configured:** |
| 35 | + |
| 36 | + - **Cause**: Google Translate integration in FlutterFlow currently supports up to 10 languages. |
| 37 | + - **Fix**: Limit your translation to a maximum of 10 languages under **App Settings > Localization**. |
| 38 | + |

| 40 | +## Identify the Source of Translation Errors |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | +Follow these steps to isolate and resolve translation problems: |
| 43 | + |
| 44 | +- Step 1: **Locate the Problem Area** |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | + Identify whether the issue happens on a specific page, widget, or element. This helps narrow down the root cause. |
| 47 | + |
| 48 | +- Step 2: **Check Developer Console** |
| 49 | + |
| 50 | + Use the Chrome DevTools console to view translation-related error logs. Look for clues that indicate what went wrong. |
| 51 | + |
| 52 | +- Step 3: Use the **Translate All** Feature |
| 53 | + |
| 54 | + Try the **Translate All** button to see where the failure occurs. The process may stop at the specific problematic text field. |
| 55 | + |
| 56 | +- Step 4: Temporarily Remove Problem Text |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | + Remove large or complex text temporarily. Retry the translation. If it works, re-add the text in a translated form manually. |
| 59 | + |
