Mariquilla Sandia review for Shopify Translate & Adapt

Dec. 15, 2025

The app works fine in terms of translation quality and the interface is simple to use. However, there is a major and poorly explained limitation that makes it very frustrating in real-world use. Shopify Translate & Adapt only allows automatic translation for two languages per store, and it counts any language that already has machine-translated content, even if that content was created using a different app. In my case, Spanish was translated with another app and manually reviewed, but Translate & Adapt still counts it toward the limit. As a result, I cannot use this app to automatically translate a third language (French), even though I never used Shopify Translate for Spanish. This is not a technical bug, but a product limitation that is not clearly communicated, and it can seriously disrupt your translation strategy if you have already invested time in another tool. Use this app only if you are absolutely sure which two languages you want to support from day one. Migrating or combining apps later is much more restrictive than it appears.
