ARKit App Store Listing in Simplified Chinese — zh-Hans Place in AR & View in Your Space Copy
Your iOS app already ships ARKit augmented reality — maybe Place in AR, View in your space, Measure, an AR preview badge on screenshots, or gallery frames labeled Augmented Reality — and the en-US product page tells that story.
Open the same app on the China storefront and buyers still land on an English product page: name, subtitle, keywords, description, and screenshot captions that read "Place in AR", "View in your room", "Augmented Reality", or "Measure with AR" in Latin script.
Shipping ARSession or RealityKit 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 actually presents AR placement and measurement, without conflating ARKit marketing with in-app camera capture or spatial FaceTime Personas.

ARKit engineering vs zh-Hans listing copy — two different jobs
Teams assume AR capability covers storefront language. Xcode, entitlements, and Connect actually separate AR runtime behavior from product-page copy:
ARSession & world tracking — in-app code that detects planes, anchors models, and runs Measure. Controls how users place objects in space. Does not generate Chinese listing text.
RealityKit entities & USDZ assets — 3D content loaded at runtime. Separate from the zh-Hans description paragraph that explains AR value to buyers.
NSCameraUsageDescription — Info.plist string shown in the system permission sheet when AR uses the camera. Separate from Connect listing fields.
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 ARKit integration.
Working AR experiences in the binary and a localized China listing are both required when you sell on the China storefront — neither replaces the other. AppLocale covers how you describe AR placement and measurement on the product page in zh-Hans, not how you implement ARKit or RealityKit.
ARKit listing copy is not Camera, Spatial Persona, Spatial Audio, or visionOS screenshot sets
AR-centric apps blur several surfaces indie teams conflate. AppLocale covers listing metadata only — augmented-reality marketing on the product page:
ARKit & augmented reality (this page) — Place in AR onboarding, View in your space screenshots, Measure overlays, AR preview badges, and description copy about placing or measuring objects in the real world.
In-app Camera & scan capture (different) — Take Photo, Camera, Scan, Capture, QR scan marketing. Not ARKit listing copy — see In-app Camera listing guide.
Spatial Persona (different) — life-size FaceTime presence on visionOS and compatible FaceTime calls. Not AR placement marketing — see Spatial Persona listing guide.
Spatial Audio (different) — Dolby Atmos, immersive headphone audio, and spatial sound marketing. Not AR session copy — see Spatial Audio listing guide.
visionOS spatial screenshot sets (different) — Apple Vision Pro tab metadata and spatial gallery framing without ARKit iPhone placement UI. See visionOS listing guide — not iPhone Place in AR frames.
Photos picker (different) — Choose Photos, Select Photos, limited library access. Not AR placement when the story is importing images — see Photos picker listing guide.
Your screenshots may show multiple surfaces in one gallery. Listing copy should name the correct one per frame — an AR placement overlay is not a camera viewfinder, not a Spatial Persona tile, not a spatial-audio headphone mockup, and not a visionOS-only spatial gallery without ARKit context.
What China buyers see when zh-Hans ARKit copy is missing
AR apps often lead marketing screenshots with placement UI, room preview, Measure tools, or Augmented Reality badges — surfaces where English marketing blurbs appear on the product page:
English title and subtitle — app name and tagline still Latin script while competitors show native Chinese AR positioning
Untranslated AR captions — overlay lines like "Place in AR", "View in your space", "Measure with AR", or "Augmented Reality" remain English on zh-Hans gallery frames
AR value in English — description opens with US marketing ("See it in your room before you buy") that China readers skim past or misread
Keyword field still en-US — buyers search 增强现实, AR, 放置, or 测量; an English-only keyword row misses China Search intent
Mixed page — Chinese description pasted once but screenshot captions and subtitle still English — reads unfinished next to localized competitors
Conflating AR with camera capture — machine translation that promises 拍照 when your app only places 3D models in AR — mismatched expectations at install
Better zh-Hans listing copy helps AR-centric buyers understand placement and measurement workflows before install. It does not replace ARKit implementation, privacy-policy legal text, or Apple's review decisions.
ARKit-specific listing copy — what translates differently
Augmented-reality listings use vocabulary general utility guides rarely cover. zh-Hans copy should reflect how Chinese App Store readers evaluate AR claims — not a literal paste of US marketing:
Place in AR vs View in your space vs Measure
Your listing should match the AR workflow your app actually ships — furniture placement, product preview in room, dimensional measurement, or multi-mode AR — without promising LiDAR, room scanning, or accuracy your binary does not support. AppLocale aligns storefront phrasing with your English claims and stated behavior; we do not invent AR capabilities.
Subtitle and keyword packing
The 30-character subtitle and 100-character keyword field need AR search terms Chinese buyers type — see Simplified Chinese keywords & subtitle for field mechanics. Terms like 增强现实, AR预览, and 空间放置 each signal different intent from generic productivity keywords.
Screenshot captions on AR frames
Gallery frames that show placement UI, room preview, Measure overlays, or AR preview badges need one-line zh-Hans captions — "在空间中预览" or "AR 测量尺寸" not "Place in AR" or "View in your room" burned into the product page story.
Common mistakes on ARKit-themed zh-Hans listings
Assuming ARKit integration localizes automatically — ARSession shipped in the binary; zh-Hans row never added or left blank
Only translating the description — subtitle, keywords, and Place in AR screenshot caption lines still English
Conflating AR placement with live camera capture — listing says 拍照 when the app only places models with ARKit
English View in your space on zh-Hans screenshots — Connect caption fields are Chinese but burned-in overlay labels on PNG exports are still Latin
Expecting AppLocale to implement ARKit — ARSession configuration and RealityKit entity setup are engineering tasks outside listing rewrite scope
Mixing Spatial Persona or Spatial Audio vocabulary into AR copy — life-size FaceTime tiles and headphone immersive audio belong on different listing guides, not Place in AR frames
Using visionOS gallery language for iPhone AR — spatial Persona and visionOS tab metadata are separate scopes from iPhone ARKit placement marketing
What's New still English after AR launch — see What's New in Simplified Chinese when Measure or room preview shipped in a recent version
Connect checklist before you order ARKit listing copy
Confirm China under Pricing and Availability — storefront enabled if you intend to sell there
Confirm your app markets AR placement — not camera-only capture — note whether screenshots show Place in AR, View in your space, Measure, or AR preview so copy matches frames
Open App Store → Chinese (Simplified) — note whether the zh-Hans row exists and which text fields are empty vs English placeholder
Export English AR marketing copy — current en-US title, subtitle, keywords, description, promotional text, and every screenshot overlay line ("Place in AR", "View in your space", "Measure", "Augmented Reality", "View in your room")
List screenshot frames that show AR UI — note which gallery images show placement overlays, room preview, Measure tools, or AR badges so caption lines match frame order
Separate listing from in-app AR strings — listing rewrite does not cover AR session UI labels or plane-detection hints inside the binary
Plan caption re-export if text is burned into PNGs — Connect caption fields help when overlays are editable; English baked into image files needs design rework outside AppLocale
Paste-ready Simplified Chinese listing metadata rewritten from your English App Store copy, with ARKit-aware phrasing:
App name — up to 30 characters on the zh-Hans row
Subtitle — up to 30 characters; visible under the name in Search
Keywords — up to 100 characters in the hidden keyword field
Description — long listing body explaining AR placement and measurement for China buyers
Screenshot caption lines — overlay text for frames showcasing Place in AR, View in your space, Measure UI, or AR preview badges (send frame count and current English lines)
English alignment — voice consistent with your en-US page; we note both sides when English also needs tightening on AR claims

Does AppLocale implement ARKit, RealityKit, or ARSession code?
No. We deliver Connect listing metadata copy only — name, subtitle, keywords, description, promotional text when included, and screenshot caption lines. ARSession setup, plane detection, RealityKit entities, and in-app AR UI are outside scope.
How is ARKit listing copy different from Camera, Spatial Persona, Spatial Audio, or visionOS screenshot sets?
ARKit listing copy covers Place in AR, View in your space, Measure, Augmented Reality, and AR preview marketing — not in-app Camera or AVCapture listing copy, not Spatial Persona life-size FaceTime presence copy, not Spatial Audio or Dolby Atmos copy, and not general visionOS spatial screenshot-set listing copy. Those are separate scopes with different screenshot vocabulary.
What do I send after AppLocale payment?
Your live App Store listing URL, current English listing copy, screenshot overlay lines that mention AR placement or measurement (with frame order noted), and target locale (zh-Hans). Reply from the email address on your Stripe receipt — we deliver to that Stripe email within 24 hours.
Does localizing my listing change the in-app AR session UI?
No. AR session overlays, plane anchors, and in-app placement UI come from your binary — not Connect listing fields. AppLocale covers product-page marketing copy only.
Will zh-Hans ARKit copy improve China rankings?
We do not guarantee ranking, browse placement, or download lift. Complete zh-Hans metadata helps users who already find your page understand AR value in their language — it is not a placement hack.
