JAPANESE LOCALIZATION NEEDS TRANSLATORS AND PROOFREADERS!
BasicAirData GPS Logger is a simple Android App to record your position and your path.
The app is 100% Free, Ads free and Open Source.
You can see and download the source code here:

Translators and Proofreaders can follow the Translation's news here:

★ INCLUSION PROCESS
The inclusion of a new Language into GPS Logger will be done in two phases:
1) Translation: The translation of 100% of the application strings. Anyone can contribute to translate, without any obligation.
2) Proofreader Research: A proofreader is a reference person that will work with the developing team here in Crowdin in order to optimize and keep the translation updated. We ask proofreaders a modest follow-up effort (few minutes when we update strings file, maximum once every 2-3 months), and a constructive collaboration spirit.
Translations will be integrated into GPS Logger - just before a new release - when they will be 100% completed and handled by one or more proofreaders.
No longer maintained and incomplete localizations will be removed from the app.
Thanks to translators and proofreaders, GPS Logger now officially includes the following languages:
- Brazilian Portuguese
- Chinese Simplified
- English (the source language)
- French
- Hungarian
- German
- Italian
- Japanese
- Portuguese
- Spanish
There is no money behind this open project, only passion, and desire to do something useful.
We have absolutely NO interest to have as many languages as possible. We hope instead of cooperation with people (maybe GPS Logger users) that share our interests and contribute translating and keep updated this software with our same passion.
This is the reason why we will not cooperate with any paid translator or proofreader.
No feedbacks in exchange for translations (on Crowdin, or any other platform), only the comfort to have (and the joy to make available) the app in your own native language.
