Can the Translate & Adapt app automatically detect user language?

Topic summary

User asked if the Translate & Adapt app can automatically detect a visitor’s language or location and switch the store language accordingly.

Staff clarified that automatic detection and language/location-based redirection is not handled by Translate & Adapt. Instead, this functionality is provided by the Geolocation app and/or Shopify’s auto-redirects for international domains.

A Shopify help resource on domain redirection for Markets/international domains was provided to guide setup of automatic redirects based on customer location/language.

Outcome: The user acknowledged the guidance and plans to try the Geolocation/auto-redirect approach. No further issues were raised; the thread appears resolved.
