 # Translations
 
-Translations are solicited on Transifex[https://www.transifex.com/]. We
-upload our source language (US English) to Transifex, where our
-translators can submit their translations. Before the app is released,

-## Fetch Translations
+### Localize User Facing Strings
 
-Generally you wan to fetch the latest translations whenever releasing. The
-exception being if you have recently changed lots of existing source strings 
-that haven't had a chance to be translated.
+Use the NSLocalizedString macros to mark any user facing strings as
+localizable. See existing usages of this macro for examples.

-Sometimes you'll pull down a translation which isn't yet tracked by git.
-This means that translation recently became sufficiently complete to
-include in the project. As well as adding it to git, you need to update
-the Xcode project to include the new localization.
+At this point you should see your new strings, untranslated in only the English
+(en) localization.
+
+Edit Signal/translations/en.lproj/Localizable.strings to translate your strings.
+
+Commit these English translations with your work. Do not touch the non-english
+localizations. Those are updated as part of our release process by Signal
+Staff.
