Hello Sailors!

I just noticed (in SFOS 3.1.0) that the text changes in remorse popup when it is being swiped to accept the action. The default Finnish translation is "Peru koskettamalla" which is simple and understandable, but as I begin to swipe, the text changes to "Kommitoi pyyhkäisemällä" which may not be accessible to non-technical users. (To be honest, this is the first time I have seen the word "kommitoida" being actually used anywhere.)

May I suggest a change to the translation? "Hyväksy pyyhkäisemällä" or "Toteuta pyyhkäisemällä" would both be quite accurate in my opinion, and more understandable terms to the average user. Thanks!

Hi,

Thank you for your message and feedback! You are totally right. It sounds strange in Finnish. We have now changed it to "Hyväksy pyyhkäisemällä". It will be available in a later release as it has just missed the 3.1.0 deadlines.

Regards,

Jarkko
