@rob You just have to hit the translate option (in the gear button of a post) and it should use it. Setting languages for posts will come when we redesign the compose view.

@ivory I don’t see a translate option… (or did I misunderstand what the gear button of a post is?)

Screenshot of a post in Ivory where I tapped on the gear button (opening a menu with several menu items, but not a translate option)

@rob Probably won't see it on your own post?

@ivory Would you be so kind to reply something in a different language so that we can test this?

@rob Just go to the federated timeline and look for posts in other languages.

@ivory @rob I had already been trying that, but could not find such a post so far. Ironically a reblog of @MonaApp today provided the test case… It works!

What defines the target language?

On the web (instance) it is English (the configured interface language?), but in Ivory (App) it’s my native language (language set on iPhone?).

@rob should be based on your setting in the instance website.

@ivory Experimented a bit: Ivory seems to (indeed) translate to the preferred language in the iOS Settings (which totally makes sense).
