Use Lipi in English or Nepali. Switch in Settings under Appearance. Server messages and emails follow the same language.
This page is English only for now.
Problems it solves
- Most money apps are English only, and my family cannot use them.
- I want the whole app, including error messages and emails, in my own language.
- Different people on one shared budget prefer different languages.
What it is
Lipi runs in English and Nepali. The whole app is translated: screens, buttons, error messages and the emails the server sends. More languages may follow.
What problem it solves
A money app only works if everyone who uses it can read it. A family sharing a budget may not all read English. Lipi lets each person pick the language they are comfortable in, without losing any feature.
How it works
-
Open Settings and choose Appearance.
-
Find Language and pick English or नेपाली. The whole app switches once the choice is saved on your account.
-
Server messages, validation errors and emails use the same language.
Details and rules
- Plan: free.
- Data is untouched. Switching language never changes amounts, dates or records.
- Server messages. Messages from the server, including validation errors and emails, exist in English and Nepali.
- Invoices. Invoice labels are plain text you type, so they can be in any language. See Invoice layouts.
