A Language manager to handle changing app language without restarting the app.

For SwiftUI please visit the LanguageManager-SwiftUI

For LanguageManger-iOS with Lokalise integration please visit the LanguageManager-iOS-Lokalise repo.

Youtube: iOS - Support multiple languages (Localization).

First of all, remember to add the Localizable.strings to your project, after adding the Localizable.strings file, select it then go to file inspector and below localization press localize, after that go to PROJECT > Localisation then add the languages you want to support (Arabic for example), dialog will appear to ask you which resource file you want to localize, select just the Localizable.strings file.
 
Now, go to your storyboard and add UILable and add text to it, for example "Hello !", then go to your Localizable.strings file expand it, you will find Localizable strings file for English and Arabic, for English put just this line with the string you put in the UILabel inside the storyboard
"Hello !" = "Hello !";
and for Arabic file :
"Hello !" = "مرحبا !";

LanguageManager.shared.defaultLanguage = .en // you can use .deviceLanguage to keep the device language.

If you want to change the language use the setLanguage(language:) method by passing to it the new language

  @IBAction func changeLanguage(_ sender: UIButton) {

    let selectedLanguage: Languages = sender.tag == 1 ? .en : .ar

    // change the language
    LanguageManager.shared.setLanguage(language: selectedLanguage)
    { title -> UIViewController in
      let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
      // the view controller that you want to show after changing the language
      return storyboard.instantiateInitialViewController()!
    } animation: { view in
      // do custom animation
      view.transform = CGAffineTransform(scaleX: 2, y: 2)
      view.alpha = 0
    }
  }

If you have an image and you want to change the direction of the image depending on the language, you can use image direction property, the property can be one of the following values:

-fixed: if the image must not change the direction depending on the language, you need to set the value as 0.

-leftToRight: if the image must change the direction depending on the language and the image is left to right image then you need to set the value as 1.

-rightToLeft: if the image must change the direction depending on the language and the image is right to left image then you need to set the value as 2.

Please check the example project to see how it works.
