What is all this for?
You may be wondering these things:
- Why don’t you use professional translators?
- Aren’t there online solutions that do the job a lot better?
- ... and so on
Our goal is one thing: to provide high-quality translations to global Alarmy users.
By “high-quality”, we mean idiomatically natural and perfectly fitting Alarmy.
Yes, we can use professionals (which we are actually doing) and that would be even easier. But we’re certain that there’s no one else who knows better about Alarmy than you Larmies. That’s why we’re reaching out.
Regarding the interface, this is not the final look! This is just a part of our big plan. Our intention is to start small, get direct feedback from you ASAP and make the process better.
Hope to see many suggestions!
Your participation, big or small, will pile up to make big changes. Don’t be pressured to make many suggestions at once. Just drop by the sheet, look through to see if anything catches your eyes and let us know what pops up in your head.
We sincerely want to make a service you love. Hope this is a new chance for us to communicate and build something great! ;)
Thanks for reading. Have a lovely day and stay healthy!
With love, Alarmy team ❤️
