Settings

Adjust how Tranzio looks and behaves, secure your account, and manage the practical things: languages, storage, and notifications.

Settings is one page with sections down the left side, and it's worth a five-minute visit early on: telling Tranzio which languages you read, where translations should install, and which notifications you want makes the whole app feel tailored. Everything here saves immediately; there's no Apply button to forget.

The sections

The sidebar groups them into Account, Workspace and System. You'll set most of these once and never think about them again, so a slow first pass now saves a lot of hunting later.

Account

Profile

What other players see next to your work.

  • Display name
  • Handle
  • Avatar
The sidebar with a preview of each section. About (your app version) and Danger zone (reset or delete) sit at the bottom of the same list.
SectionWhat you'll find
ProfileYour display name, handle, and avatar, which is what other players see next to your work and messages.
SecurityYour email and password, two-factor authentication, and the list of devices signed into your account (with a sign-out button for any you don't recognize).
NotificationsWhich alerts reach you, which may pop up as desktop notifications, and quiet hours. Explained in Notifications.
IntegrationsConnect the stores and accounts Tranzio works with, which improves automatic game detection.
LanguageThe app's own language, plus the languages you read, so Home highlights translations that are actually for you.
StorageThe folders Tranzio works in, how much disk space it has used, and the buttons that clear the reclaimable part.
PrivacyDiagnostics, crash reports, Incognito mode, and your public visibility. Big enough to have its own page.
AboutYour app version and updates to Tranzio itself.
Danger zoneReset your settings to defaults, or delete your account. Both ask twice.

Nothing to apply

Every control here commits the moment you touch it. The pill in the corner of the section is the receipt: it says Saved just now for a beat, then settles back to All changes saved. There is no Save button, so leaving the page mid-thought loses nothing.

Notifications

Settings → Notifications

Saved just now
Show a system pop-up for the alerts you picked.
Play a short sound with each pop-up.
A switch changing and the save pill confirming it. If the pill ever reads Save failed, the change didn't stick, and the usual cause is a dropped connection on a setting that lives with your account.

A minute on security

Two things in the Security section are worth doing today. First, a strong password; the meter reacts as you type, so aim for the green:

New passwordmin 8 chars
The password strength meter from Security. Length beats cleverness: a few random words outscore one clever substitution every time.

Second, two-factor authentication. Once enabled, signing in on a new device asks for a six-digit code from your authenticator app, which means a leaked password alone can't reach your account or your published work:

The code prompt you'll see at sign in with two-factor authentication on. Type or paste; it submits itself when complete.

The same section lists every device with a live session, each with the date it signed in. Anything you don't recognize is a reason to sign out everywhere and change your password, in that order.

Storage: what's on disk

This section shows the folders Tranzio works in, the space it has taken, and the buttons that give some of it back. The usage ring is the part worth reading: it counts only what the app itself wrote, broken into the same buckets you see on the Tools page.

51%
  • Game data12.4 GB
  • Builds & patches3.2 GB
  • Audio cache1.9 GB
  • Extract cache6.8 GB
  • Free on disk23.7 GB

Two caches, both regenerable. Everything else on the ring is work you'd miss.

The usage ring and the cleanup buttons. Each button carries the size it would reclaim, so you can see the trade before you press anything.

Caches are the reclaimable part. The audio cache holds decoded game audio so lines play instantly in the Studio, and the extract cache holds unpacked game files so the next build starts fast. Both come back on their own the next time they're needed, which makes clearing them a decision about time rather than about work. The cache limit slider above the buttons is a target you set for the audio cache; the buttons are what actually free the space.

Common questions

Is installing a translation safe for my game?

Yes. Tranzio saves a restore point before it changes anything and never touches your save files. You can revert any install at any time. The full explanation is in How translations work.

Do I need an account to install translations?

During the open beta, yes, but it's free. The account is also what lets you build and publish your own translations, rate adaptations, and message teams.

What does a paid plan add?

Convenience for heavy users: several downloads at once, a larger queue, and private adaptations. Translations themselves are always free. See Subscription & Premium.

A game I want isn't in the catalog. What now?

Nobody has published a translation for it yet. If you own the game you can be the one who does: Adding a game is the first step. Note that during the open beta Tranzio supports Unreal Engine 4 and 5 games, with more engines on the way, so some games are waiting on engine support rather than on a translator.

Where is my translation work stored?

Locally, on your computer, saved automatically as you type. Nothing leaves your machine until you publish. Details in Accounts, plans & your data.

Tranzio is using a lot of disk space. What can I remove?

Open Storage and look at the ring. Anything labelled a cache is safe to clear and comes back by itself; everything else is your work. If you want the same panel with a per-bucket breakdown, the Tools page has it.

Can't find a setting? Search indexes app screens too, so typing "quiet hours" or "storage" jumps you straight to the right section. The sidebar has its own filter box as well, which is quicker when you're already on the page.
