How does translation work with ReachWell?

The ReachWell translation engine supports both automated and manual translation. Staff members send messages in English, and app notifications are translated based on the preferred languages selected by contacts via their app. ReachWell leverages the Google translation engine. As the Google translate engine continues to evolve in effectiveness and accuracy, we have found this translation method works great for brief messages.

Contacts with the app:

Contacts download the ReachWell app and choose their preferred language (from 103 languages). All future messages they receive from you are instantly translated into their selected language. We, at ReachWell, do our best to store all translated information in order to support historical translation for families who may be added to a group or organization at some point in the future. For example:

1. If a family member chooses Arabic as their preferred language in April, but no other family from that organization had previously selected Arabic, then only future messages will be delivered in Arabic and messages prior to that will be viewable in English.
   
2. However, if a second family joins the same group in later in the year and selects Arabic, then historical messages delivered before April will be in English, and all messages after will be in Arabic.  
   

      

Families without the app:

ReachWell is built for all families. Even when they don't have a smartphone, tablet or mobile device, families can receive translated messages through email and text messages.  If your organization is importing contacts to ReachWell via a  CSV file , their preferred languages can be updated via the imported file. Otherwise, contact languages can be manually adjusted directly from the ReachWell  Dashboard  >  People  >  Contacts  page.  Messages are written in English and delivered in the preferred language selected by the contacts.
