Right-to-left (RTL) screenshots

Right-to-left (RTL) screenshots are store screenshots localized for languages written right to left, such as Arabic, Hebrew, Urdu and Persian. They need right-aligned captions and, if your app mirrors its UI, mirrored captures.

Numbers and Latin brand names inside RTL text still run left to right, so preview mixed text carefully.

Arabic captions rendered right to left by the browser in a composed set.
