The Scorekeeper app that keeps score with plus and minus buttons, localized for Hebrew and Afrikaan.
This app consists of two sets of buttons and two text views used to keep track of the score for any point-based game with two players. The localization challenge is to:
-
Change the red color for the minus buttons to a different color for the Afrikaan (South Africa) language (locale) choice due to cultural differences in the use of the color red.
-
Change the text size for the team names to 40sp in Hebrew only, because the Hebrew text is too small to read.
