Add Language Translations to the Description Text Field on a Channel
Request: Add the Language Translation Options/Flag to the Description Text field under the Mobile Channel Settings tab for a selected Channel.
Description: Since this flag indicating language translation options is missing for this field, we are showing multiple languages at the same time for a field which is already longer than other fields as it is a description text field. This could turn 3-5 sentences of a description into 6-10 sentences or 9-15 sentences on one channel depending on if we want to show 2 or 3 languages for this field. Having the option to display a different language for this field would reduce the amount of text being displayed at one time for the Description Text Field. I have included a screenshot with two green squares showing the language option flag on two other fields on the same page, and a single red square indicating the missing language option flag for the Description Text field.
Thank you for considering this request!

We are running into this same issue now in our app development. Having to place multiple translations into one text field is not ideal... As mentioned in the original post, this can appear quite lengthy depending on how many languages you are including. Adding translation capabilities for these fields would really enhance the app experience for all users, since it would eliminate the need for such long blocks of text.

The ability to translate field data should not be limited to select fields. Adding translation to the Description Text field and all fields is a must for proper translation needs. While Innovative Mobile does offer some fields for translation, the example provided is a great start to adding full translation features.
