iOS default locale

For iOS devices a default locale must be defined. This is necessary to ensure that the adequate application name to be displayed is selected and that this name actually conforms to the preferred languages of the mobile device (General > Language & Region > PREFERRED LANGUAGE ORDER).

If the preferred languages as configured in the device settings do not match the locale contained in the XML files, the application uses the default locale defined in static.properties.

A customization embeds three XML files (default without locale, locale en for English and locale ja for Japanese), the default locale in static.properties is en.

If the device language is configured via the device settings in Japanese, Mobile Authenticator Studio will use the application name contained in the XML file with the Japanese locale.

If the device language is configured via the device settings in Chinese and if none of the preferred languages match a locale contained in the XML files, Mobile Authenticator Studio will use the application name contained in the XML file linked with the locale defined in static.properties (i.e. en): the XML file with the English locale.

If the default locale defined in static.properties does not correspond to any locale in the XML files, the default XML file is used.

The default locale must be manually defined in \CustomizationTool\input\conf > static.properties. Here, you need to define the following element:

• iosDefaultLocale: The locale value must be defined with either two or five characters. The first two characters define the language code, followed by "-". The last two characters define the country code. The country code is optional. For a list of available languages, refer to the DIGIPASS.xsd file of the Mobile Authenticator Studio package.

This element is mandatory for an iOS customization.
