Product Update — Full 52-Language Rollout
As of August 2025, Shifton now delivers complete localization across 52 languages. This is more than interface translation: the web dashboard, mobile apps and the administrator panel have all been adapted so global teams can work in their native language with accurate formats, policies and notifications.
What’s New in This Release
• Automatic language detection at first login (browser/OS/location)
• End-to-end localization: roles, shift policies, notifications, reports, help texts
• Correct regional formats (dates, time, numbers, currencies)
• Per-user language preference with instant switching via the top-right language selector — no reloads
• Mobile apps localized on iOS and Android
• Centralized language management for admins
Shifton is a multilingual staff management platform that proudly delivers full localization across 52 languages—far beyond simple interface translation. Every layer of the system—from the web dashboard to the mobile app and administrator panel—has been adapted to support teams worldwide. Whether you oversee a local crew or coordinate schedules across continents, Shifton removes communication barriers so every employee can work in their native language.
This localized approach boosts clarity, efficiency, and inclusivity for organisations of all sizes and industries.

Does Shifton detect a user’s language automatically?
Yes. On first login we detect the browser/OS language or location and load the right version instantly. Users can change it any time using the language selector in the top-right corner of the header.
Are emails, push notifications and reports localised too?
Yes. System emails, push alerts, in-app messages and most report labels are translated and use regional date/time formats.

Absolutely. Each user chooses their preferred language via the top-right language selector, without affecting others.
