Localization tips for Slovak

  1. 1 Budget 25% more horizontal space.
  2. 2 Slovak and Czech diacritics overlap (ř, ž, š, č) but Slovak also uses ô, ä, ľ.
  3. 3 Formal "Vy" for business, informal "ty" for consumer.
  4. 4 If budget is tight and you target CEE, Czech can serve as a fallback for Slovak — but not the other way around.

Fonts for Slovak

Slovak localization FAQ

What App Store Connect locale code should I use for Slovak?

Use sk when adding Slovak (Slovenčina) screenshots in App Store Connect or Google Play Console. Using the wrong code means your localized screenshots never reach Slovak users.

Does text expansion affect Slovak screenshot design?

Slovak runs +25% vs English on average character count. You should design buttons and headlines with explicit overflow headroom — text that fits in English will break in Slovak.

Does Shotlingo automatically localize screenshots to Slovak?

Yes. Shotlingo auto-translates your App Store screenshot text to Slovak (Slovenčina) with AI that respects text expansion, and platform-appropriate fonts. Export the localized bundle ready for App Store Connect locale sk.

Do I have to translate my App Store screenshots to Slovak?

If Slovak 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.
