we have an app for iPhone and Android. And we would like to internationalize this app.
Are there some good ways / strategies to manage text resources for both plattforms – android and iPhone, which you use?
Thank you in advance

Since usually translators like to have their texts in excel sheets, you basically have two options:
1) have an exporter for android and one for iPhone that export the excel data to the native supported iPhone/Android strings (.strings and .xml files )
2) do not use the native formats and always export the files into the same custom format and do everything on your own in app.
I usually go for option 1
