Hindi App Store Screenshots (हिन्दी)

Hindi App Store screenshots go in the Hindi localization (hi); on Google Play the code is hi-IN. Hindi is written in Devanagari script, left to right, so words are separated by spaces; letters combine into clusters that must never be split.

  • Hindi hi

  • Hindi hi-IN

Width check: at the same font size, these Hindi headlines measure about 108% of the English width (estimated with our composer’s text metrics).

Devanagari script rules

Words are separated by spaces; letters combine into clusters that must never be split.

  • The headline bar (shirorekha) and vowel signs above and below need extra line height: about 1.3–1.4×.
  • Avoid all-caps styles and letter-spacing; neither exists in the script.

Fonts: Noto Sans Devanagari, Mukta or Hind cover Devanagari.

Hindi-specific notes

  • Everyday Hindi borrows English tech words (streak, app); use them where users would.
  • Increase line height for vowel signs above and below.

How to make the Hindi set in AppShotEditor

  1. Finish your source-language set first.
  2. Duplicate the project and name it with the locale code (hi). AppShotEditor has no built-in translation, so paste in translated headlines yourself.
  3. Replace the screenshots with ones captured in Hindi (on iOS: Simulator → Settings → Language).
  4. Check line breaks on every screen; adjust where a word splits badly.
  5. Export at the same sizes and upload them in the Hindi localization.

Frequently asked questions

What is the App Store Connect locale code for Hindi?

Hindi: hi. These are Apple’s locale shortcodes for App Store metadata.

How much longer are Hindi headlines than English?

In our example set, the Hindi headlines measure about 108% of the English width at the same font size (estimated with our layout engine’s text metrics). Your copy will differ, so preview every screen.

Which fonts support Hindi?

Noto Sans Devanagari, Mukta or Hind cover Devanagari.

Should Hindi screenshots use English words?

Where Hindi speakers use them naturally (app, streak, plan), yes. Over-formal Sanskrit-based terms can read stiffly.
