# Auto translate reviews

#### Why Localization Matters

* **Conversion:** Localized reviews can boost conversions by up to 70%. When shoppers see relatable testimonials in their native language and cultural context, they trust your brand, which lowers the risk of cart abandonment.
* **Language Matters:** About 65% of consumers prefer content in their native language, and 40% will not buy from websites in foreign languages.
* **Relevance:** Showcasing reviews from the shopper's own region shows you have happy local customers, making them feel like a safe bet.

#### How it works

Reviews are shown in the store language your visitors are browsing in. When a visitor switches the language on your website, two things update at the same time:

– The review content (titles and review text) is translated into the selected language.\
– The widget elements — buttons, labels, headings, and other interface text — switch to the same language.

This means a German-speaking visitor sees German reviews and a German interface, while an English-speaking visitor on the same store sees everything in English. The switch happens automatically based on the language your visitor selects, so the widget always matches the rest of your storefront.

#### How to enable it

Go to Widget settings → Widgets global settings, then turn on Auto translate reviews. Once enabled, translation applies automatically across your widgets.\

#### Requirements

Requires multiple languages in Shopify. Add and publish them in Shopify Settings → Languages. If your store has only one language active, there's nothing to translate into and the feature stays inactive.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://reputon.gitbook.io/reputon-help/google-reviews-app/how-to/auto-translate-reviews.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
