App Library App Store Listing in Simplified Chinese — 应用资料库, App 资料库 & 应用库 zh-Hans Copy
Your iOS app markets App Library on the product page — buyers swipe past the last Home Screen page to reach the auto-organized app drawer, browse category folders like Productivity and Social, open the Recently Added folder for new installs, and use App Library Search to find apps without leaving the drawer.
Gallery frames may show hide from Home Screen, category folder grids, or in-drawer search — not widget pickers and not jiggle-mode icon rearrangement.
Open the same app on the China storefront and buyers still land on an English product page.
Title, subtitle, description, and screenshot overlays that read "App Library", "Recently Added", or "Search" in Latin script while your feature is the categorized app drawer — not the widget gallery.
Shipping App Library-aware UX in the binary does not auto-fill a Simplified Chinese (zh-Hans) localization row.
AppLocale writes paste-ready zh-Hans listing copy for those Connect fields — aligned with how your App Library gallery frames actually look, not Home Screen widget marketing, not Control Center tiles, and not Focus mode profiles.

Western indie iOS developers — US, UK, EU, Canada, Australia — who:
Ship or market an app launcher, app organizer, hide-apps utility, or App Library companion whose buyers rely on the iPhone App Library drawer instead of crowded Home Screen pages
Market swipe to App Library, auto-categorized folders, Recently Added, App Library Search, or remove from Home Screen but keep in App Library on the en-US product page
Finished App Library-aware flows or on-device category-folder, Recently Added, or in-drawer search demos in the binary — not looking for WidgetKit or Home Screen widget engineering help here
Enabled the China storefront but the zh-Hans product page still shows English copy or untranslated App Library badge lines on screenshots
Need paste-ready zh-Hans listing fields — not an engineer for SpringBoard APIs, not a designer to re-render App Library screenshot PNGs, not widget gallery marketing copy as the hero
App Library behavior vs zh-Hans listing copy — two different jobs
Teams assume App Library support on device covers storefront language. Category folders, hide-from-Home-Screen toggles, and Connect actually separate in-app App Library behavior from product-page copy:
Swipe past the last Home Screen page — the gesture buyers use to open App Library. Controls on-device navigation — not App Store language. AppLocale does not perform this.
Auto-categorized folders — iOS groups apps into folders like Productivity, Social, Utilities, and Entertainment. Listing copy should name that organization; building category detection is engineering work, not Connect metadata.
Recently Added — a dedicated App Library folder for apps installed recently. zh-Hans overlays should use 最近添加 when your English frames show that badge — not English-only "Recently Added" pasted through machine translation.
App Library Search — the search field at the top of App Library that finds installed apps by name. zh-Hans copy should use 应用资料库搜索 or 资料库内搜索 when your gallery shows that bar — distinct from Spotlight or Siri search marketing.
Hide from Home Screen — apps removed from Home Screen pages but still visible in App Library. Product-page copy names that workflow; implementing hide-app toggles is engineering.
Pricing and Availability → China — makes the app downloadable on the China App Store. Separate from language rows.
App Store tab → Chinese (Simplified) localization — independent row for title, subtitle, keywords, description, promotional text, screenshots, and caption lines. Empty or English here means China buyers see English fallback regardless of App Library support in the binary.
Working App Library integration and a localized China listing are both required when you sell on the China storefront — neither replaces the other. AppLocale covers how you describe App Library, 应用资料库, and 资料库搜索 value on the product page in zh-Hans, not how you wire launcher APIs in code.
App Library listing copy vs widgets vs Home Screen layout vs Control Center vs Focus
Home Screen–adjacent apps blur several shop guides indie teams conflate. AppLocale covers listing metadata only — App Library auto-categorized drawer marketing on the product page:
App Library (this page) — swipe past the last Home Screen page to the auto-organized app drawer; category folders; Recently Added; App Library Search; hide from Home Screen but keep in App Library; 应用资料库, App 资料库, 应用库, 最近添加, and 资料库搜索 vocabulary.
Home Screen & Lock Screen widgets (different) — WidgetKit gallery, Add Widget picker, Lock Screen widget slots, StandBy widget frames. Covered on our widgets listing guide — 小组件, not the App Library app drawer. Mention widgets only as contrast when your English listing explicitly distinguishes widget placement from App Library organization.
Interactive widgets (different) — tap-to-complete widgets on the Home Screen without opening the app. Covered on our interactive widgets guide — not App Library category folders.
Lock Screen widgets (different) — circular, rectangular, or inline accessory slots above the clock. Covered on our Lock Screen widgets guide — not App Library search or Recently Added.
Home Screen icon layout & jiggle mode (different) — Edit Home Screen, drag icons, create folders on Home Screen pages, wallpaper picks. Not the App Library drawer buyers reach by swiping past the final page — unless your English listing centers hide-from-Home-Screen as the bridge into App Library.
Control Center controls (different) — iOS 18+ toggles in Control Center and Lock Screen control slots. Covered on our Control Center guide — 控制中心, not 应用资料库.
Focus modes & Do Not Disturb (different) — notification silencing by Work, Sleep, or Personal Focus profile. Covered on our Focus modes guide — 专注模式, not App Library folders.
Notification Center & Notification Summary (different) — notification history and grouped digests. Covered on our Notification Center guide — not the App Library app drawer.
Your screenshots may show multiple iOS surfaces in one gallery. Listing copy should name the correct one per frame — App Library category grids are not widget pickers, Control Center tiles, or Focus profile badges.
Why English App Library copy hurts on the China storefront
App Library–aware apps often lead marketing screenshots with the categorized drawer, Recently Added folder, or in-drawer search — surfaces where system chrome and your sample category labels appear together:
English frame headlines — "App Library", "Recently Added", "Productivity" left as capture defaults while your zh-Hans description claims full Chinese support
Wrong zh-Hans vocabulary — 小组件 pasted into App Library frames when buyers expect 应用资料库, App 资料库, or 应用库 — misfileing your app as a widget utility in Search
Searchable fields still English — subtitle and keywords never packed for 应用资料库, 应用库, 最近添加, or 资料库搜索 terms Chinese users type when looking for app organizers
Hide-from-Home-Screen workflows untranslated — "Remove from Home Screen" badges on gallery frames when launcher apps sell App Library as the organized home for hidden apps
Category folder names in Latin script — Productivity, Social, Utilities still English on screenshots buyers skim before reading the description
Conflating with widget gallery marketing — frames that show Add Widget picker copy on a product page meant to sell App Library organization — confusing China buyers who search for 应用资料库 not 小组件
Better zh-Hans listing copy and App Library screenshot captions reduce product-page bounce for organizer-aware buyers — they do not replace launcher engineering inside the binary or guarantee Search rank.
Common mistakes on App Library zh-Hans listings
Translating only the description — name, subtitle, and keywords still English while App Library screenshots dominate the gallery
Using 小组件 for App Library — widgets and App Library are different iOS surfaces; 小组件 in App Library frames signals the wrong feature to China Search
Pasting 应用资料库 into every keyword slot — crowding the 100-character field without room for your app's actual use case (launcher, organizer, hide apps)
English category folder names in PNG exports — Connect caption fields are zh-Hans but burned-in Productivity or Social labels on the image file are still Latin
Marketing jiggle-mode icon layout as App Library — Edit Home Screen and drag-and-drop icons are Home Screen page workflows, not the auto-categorized drawer after the last page
Assuming hide-app support = listing done — runtime hide-from-Home-Screen behavior can work while the App Store row still falls back to English
ChatGPT 翻译腔 on Recently Added — literal translations of "Recently Added" that native readers do not use when Apple consumer copy says 最近添加
What good zh-Hans App Library listing copy looks like
Listing fields should name the App Library surfaces you actually market — aligned with your screenshot order:
Subtitle — one concrete promise: "滑动至应用资料库，自动整理" or "App 资料库内快速搜索应用" — not vague "提升效率"
Keywords — mix organizer intent (启动器, 整理, 隐藏应用) with App Library terms (应用资料库, 应用库, 最近添加) within Connect's ~100-character zh-Hans budget; see Simplified Chinese keywords guide
Description — short paragraphs for swipe-to-App-Library, category folders, Recently Added, App Library Search, and hide-from-Home-Screen — mirror screenshot sequence
Screenshot captions on App Library frames — name the on-screen action: "向左滑至应用资料库" not "强大功能"
Category folder caption lines — when your gallery shows Productivity or Social folders, caption sheet lists zh-Hans equivalents (效率, 社交) for designer re-export
Voice consistency — same 你/您 choice as your description across overlay lines and promotional text
Connect checklist for App Library apps targeting China
Open App Store → Chinese (Simplified) — confirm the zh-Hans row exists; empty rows fall back to English on the China storefront
Audit searchable fields — name, subtitle, keywords, description saved in zh-Hans, not placeholder English
Walk the screenshot gallery in order — flag frames showing App Library drawer, category folders, Recently Added, App Library Search, or hide-from-Home-Screen sheets
Export overlay lines — spreadsheet of English caption text per frame beats screenshots of Connect alone
Separate App Library from widget frames — if any frame shows Add Widget picker, route widget caption copy to the widgets guide scope; keep App Library frames on 应用资料库 vocabulary
Note burned-in vs Connect captions — if category folder names are embedded in PNGs, caption deliverables go to your designer for re-export
Verify China in Pricing and Availability — storefront enabled before expecting zh-Hans to appear
What AppLocale delivers
For one app on the zh-Hans row, paste-ready Simplified Chinese listing copy focused on App Library–centric product pages:
Name, subtitle, keywords, description — rewritten for China Search intent and App Library workflows you ship
Promotional text — when you include current English promo copy in your brief
App Library screenshot caption lines — overlay text for frames showing the categorized drawer, category folders, Recently Added, App Library Search, and hide-from-Home-Screen workflows visible in your gallery
English alignment — en-US fields tightened when both storefronts need the same promise in native phrasing
24-hour turnaround — delivered to the email on your Stripe receipt after checkout and intake
Human rewrite from your current English listing — not a machine translation dump. Default $79 scope is listing metadata plus App Library–themed captions; ask if you need widget gallery or Control Center surfaces bundled separately on other shop guides.
What AppLocale does not do
Does not write WidgetKit, SwiftUI widget, or interactive widget code
Does not implement app-launcher, SpringBoard, or hide-app APIs
Does not design, compose, or re-export App Library screenshot PNG/JPEG assets
Does not localize in-app category labels, string catalogs, or the app binary
Does not run Apple Search Ads, paid UA, or review-reply retainers
Does not guarantee App Store rankings, App Library discovery, or download growth
Is not QuantRadar, not investment advice, and not legal review
Does not invent reviews, ratings, or traffic numbers
How it works
Confirm scope — App Library–themed app with en-US listing done; identify which zh-Hans fields and screenshot caption lines are still English
Send intake — reply from the email on your Stripe receipt with your App Store listing URL, English App Library listing copy (all fields and caption lines), which App Library surfaces your gallery shows, screenshot frame count, and target locale (zh-Hans)
Receive files — within 24 hours, paste-ready zh-Hans listing fields arrive at your Stripe receipt email
Paste and submit — fill the zh-Hans row in Connect, enter caption lines per screenshot slot, save, and submit the version for review. Success page: AppLocale thanks.
App Library sits after the last Home Screen page. iOS automatically groups installed apps into category folders — Productivity, Social, Utilities, Entertainment — plus a Recently Added folder and an App Library Search field at the top. Listing copy should name that auto-categorized drawer when your gallery shows it.
How is App Library different from Home Screen icon layout?
Home Screen icon layout covers jiggle mode, drag-and-drop icons, and folders on Home Screen pages. App Library is the separate drawer buyers reach by swiping past the final page — auto-sorted categories, Recently Added, and in-drawer search.
What is App Library Search in zh-Hans copy?
The search field at the top of App Library that finds installed apps by name. Use 应用资料库搜索 or 资料库内搜索 on frames that show that bar — not widget search or Control Center vocabulary unless your listing pairs those surfaces.
What is the Recently Added category?
An App Library folder surfacing apps installed recently, separate from auto-generated category folders. Use 最近添加 when your gallery shows that badge.
Why does zh-Hans copy need 应用资料库 instead of 小组件?
小组件 names Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets. 应用资料库, App 资料库, and 应用库 name Apple's auto-categorized app drawer. Using 小组件 on App Library frames misfiles your app as a widget utility in China Search.
Does App Library support auto-fill my China listing?
No. Hide-from-Home-Screen behavior and App Library navigation control runtime iOS — they do not create or fill a zh-Hans localization row. Empty or English Connect fields mean English fallback on the China storefront.
Which Connect fields does AppLocale rewrite?
Paste-ready Simplified Chinese for listing fields you specify: app name, subtitle, keywords, description, promotional text when included, and screenshot overlay lines such as App Library, Recently Added, App Library Search, 应用资料库, App 资料库, 应用库, 最近添加, and 资料库搜索.
How is this different from widgets, Control Center, and Focus pages?
Widgets cover 小组件 gallery marketing. Control Center covers 控制中心 toggles. Focus covers 专注模式 notification profiles. This page is App Library — the auto-categorized app drawer after the last Home Screen page.
What do I send after AppLocale payment?
Your live App Store listing URL, current English App Library marketing listing (title, subtitle, keywords, description, promo if used, all screenshot caption lines), screenshot frame counts, and target locale (zh-Hans). Reply from the email address on your Stripe receipt — we deliver within 24 hours.
How much does AppLocale cost?
$79 one-time via Stripe checkout. No subscription. Seller is Fortune Insight, LLC.
What is AppLocale not?
Not widget gallery listing copy, not jiggle-mode icon layout hero copy, not Control Center or Focus listing copy, not app-launcher engineering, not screenshot design, not binary localization, not ads, not ranking guarantees, not QuantRadar, and not investment or legal advice.
