Translate your App Store listing into Indonesian
Indonesian (Bahasa Indonesia) — ≈200 million speakers, serving the App Store in Indonesia. Here’s what a Indonesian localization is worth and how to ship one in minutes.
Why localize for Indonesian?
Indonesia is one of the largest mobile markets on earth, and App Store keyword competition in Indonesian is far lower than in English.
App Store search is per-locale: queries typed on the Indonesia storefront match against the id localization of your metadata. Without one, your app doesn’t rank for Indonesian searches at all — no matter how strong your English keywords are.
Indonesian-specific translation tip
Indonesian rarely inflects words, which makes keyword matching predictable — spend the saved characters on additional search terms.
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 (Indonesian 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 Indonesian (plus any other targets).
- Run the job. AI translates each selected field within its limit and uploads the id localization via the App Store Connect API.
- Review in App Store Connect and submit with your next version.

Indonesian localization FAQ
Which App Store locale code is Indonesian? ＋
Indonesian metadata uses the id localization in App Store Connect, covering the storefronts for Indonesia.
Do character limits change for Indonesian? ＋
No — the App Store’s limits (30 characters for name and subtitle, 100 for keywords, 170 for promotional text, 4,000 for the description) apply to every language, including Indonesian. StoreTranslate validates each field against these limits before uploading.
Can I translate only some fields into Indonesian? ＋
Yes. Pick exactly which fields to translate — most developers start with keywords and the description, keeping the app name unchanged. Existing translations are only overwritten if you choose to.
How do I add a Indonesian localization in App Store Connect? ＋
Open your app in App Store Connect, select a version in an editable state, and add Indonesian from the language menu — or let StoreTranslate create and fill the localization for you through the App Store Connect API.
