Translate your App Store listing into Greek
Greek (Ελληνικά) — ≈13 million native speakers, serving the App Store in Greece, Cyprus. Here’s what a Greek localization is worth and how to ship one in minutes.
Why localize for Greek?
Greek uses its own alphabet, so English keywords capture almost nothing typed by local users. The locale is cheap to add and rarely contested.
App Store search is per-locale: queries typed on the Greece storefront match against the el localization of your metadata. Without one, your app doesn’t rank for Greek searches at all — no matter how strong your English keywords are.
Greek-specific translation tip
Greeks frequently search in "Greeklish" (Greek words in Latin characters). Add romanized variants of your top keywords.
StoreTranslate bakes language-specific guidance like this into its prompts, along with each field’s character limit and any custom instructions you add — brand terms to preserve, tone to match.
What gets translated
| Field | Limit (Greek included) |
|---|---|
| App name | 30 characters |
| Subtitle | 30 characters |
| Promotional text | 170 characters |
| Description | 4,000 characters |
| Keywords | 100 characters |
| What's New (release notes) | 4,000 characters |
Field-level strategy lives in our guides on translating the description and translating keywords.
How it works
- Connect your App Store Connect API key — credentials are never stored.
- Pick your app, a version in an editable state, and Greek (plus any other targets).
- Run the job. AI translates each selected field within its limit and uploads the el localization via the App Store Connect API.
- Review in App Store Connect and submit with your next version.
