How to localise a string inside the iOS info.plist file?

by

You should use InfoPlist.strings file to localize values of Info.plist. To do this, go to File->New->File, choose Strings File under Resource tab of iOS, name it InfoPlist, and create. Open and insert the Info.plist values you want to localize like:

NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription = "Description of this";

Now you can localize InfoPlist.strings file with translations.

Select the localization options, or enable localization if needed,
