Description Amir E. Aharoni 2014-08-07 10:08:11 UTC 
I got an iPod touch device. I set my device's language to Hebrew, and it changed most of the interface to Hebrew. When I went to the App Store, the UI language was English. When I tried to search for the Wikipedia app using its Hebrew name "ויקיפדיה", the App Store couldn't find any results.

... Searching in Russian "Википедия" finds to other apps: one app for other encyclopedia and one app that generates crosswords from Wikipedia words.

s/to/two/
Comment 3 Brion Vibber 2014-08-09 10:13:45 UTC 
Hmm, we might have to localize the actual app store entries for that to work... I think the display name of the app in the InfoPlist.strings only gets used on the home screen & app switcher etc, the name in the store is distinct and sits in the iTunes Connect stuff.
