Shop locales permission now required
Altera now requires read_locales permission to support future translated app versions and improved locale-aware features.
August 28, 2025
We now request access to your shop’s locale settings to better support international stores and pave the way for translated app versions.
🚀 What’s New
- Shop locales permission – Altera now requests access to your shop’s language and locale settings.
- Primary locale detection – the app automatically identifies your shop’s primary language for better compatibility.
⚠️ Heads-up
- Permission approval required – when you next open the app, you’ll see a permission request that needs to be accepted.
- Store owner approval – if you’re not the store owner, they’ll need to approve this new permission.
- No functionality impact – existing imports and exports continue working normally while we prepare locale-aware features.
🔜 Coming Soon
- Translated app interface – support for multiple languages in the Altera dashboard.
- Locale-aware data handling – improved support for international product catalogs and market-specific content.
