  • The default bookmark folder keeps its language after changing the language of Orion.

This bug is a little bit complicated to describe. I'll try my best.

My OS language is "zh_Hans". So after I installed Orion, the app was also "zh_Hans". But because the Chinese translation of Orion is still far from perfect, I decided to change the language to English. But after I did that. The default bookmark folders "Favorite(个人收藏)" and "Bookmark Bar(书签栏)" still show in Chinese.

The Mac version of Orion still works in this situation. It can show the favorites on the start page normally. But the title is in Chinese. The problem is, that these Chinese titles are also synced to my iPhone.

On my iPhone, Orion is also in English. But it failed to find there is a "Favorite" folder. And the start page is empty. Even though the folder does exist.

I think these folders should change their title with the app. And the localized title should not be synced with iCloud. For now, even though there are no bugs, if I'm using different languages on my devices the bookmarks still won't work. Titles of these folders should be localized on the fly.

    Update: On iOS 1.3.7, Orion can show favorites correctly. But still, the folder title is in Chinese. Even the app is set to English.

        Vlad In the current mobile version, favorite works fine on the start page now. But the folder titles are in Chinese. Here are the steps:

        1. Install Orion on a zh_CN OS.
        2. Change Orion language to en_US.
        3. Default bookmark folders are still in zh_CN.
        4. Open the iOS app. (Which is also set to en_US.)
        5. The folders synced to iOS are also in zh_CN.

        So now all Orion is in English, but the default bookmark folders are in Chinese.

        Since "Favorite" and "Bookmarks Bar" are default folders, a user can't change its title. There must be something wrong. To my understanding, Orion changed the titles when the app switched language. But it does not always work.

        I think the titles of these default folders should be localized on the fly. Then this kind of bug won't occur and can support different languages of Orion use at the same time.

        I will help to improve the translation! 🤝
