Localize App Store Screenshots to Finnish
Suomi
Finland = ~5.5M people, high ARPU, tech-savvy population.
Why Finnish matters
Finnish is not related to the other Nordic languages — it is Uralic, not Germanic. It is also one of the most agglutinative languages on Earth. A single Finnish word can translate to a full English sentence.

Localization tips for Finnish
- 1 Budget 30% more horizontal space — Finnish is one of the longest European languages.
- 2 Single words can be extremely long due to case and possessive suffixes stacking.
- 3 Finnish has 15 grammatical cases. Machine translation often produces wrong case endings. Proofread.
- 4 Use Finnish diacritics ä, ö. Avoid a-umlaut fonts that look German-specific.
Fonts for Finnish
Any Latin font with full diacritic support.
Most common mistake
Designing a button for 'Settings' and being shocked when Finnish becomes 'Asetukset' (8 characters, still manageable) — then hitting 'Ilmoitusasetukset' (17 characters) elsewhere.
Finnish localization FAQ
What App Store Connect locale code should I use for Finnish?
Use fi when adding Finnish (Suomi) screenshots in App Store Connect or Google Play Console. Using the wrong code means your localized screenshots never reach Finnish users.
Does text expansion affect Finnish screenshot design?
Finnish runs +30% vs English on average character count. You should design buttons and headlines with explicit overflow headroom — text that fits in English will break in Finnish.
Does Shotlingo automatically localize screenshots to Finnish?
Yes. Shotlingo auto-translates your App Store screenshot text to Finnish (Suomi) with AI that respects text expansion, and platform-appropriate fonts. Export the localized bundle ready for App Store Connect locale fi.
Do I have to translate my App Store screenshots to Finnish?
If Finnish is a major market for your app, yes. Unlocalized screenshots significantly reduce conversion — users scroll past copy they cannot read. Even partial localization (headlines only) typically beats English-only.
