as this is an app with probaply a lot of code illiterate users it could be useful to use an easy to use online service and make a link to the online tool in the app itself like this project did: https://github.com/Ph1b/MaterialAudiobookPlayer

It's a good idea, but it seems like the company they went with charges $9 a month. I am not charging for the app, and cannot afford to pay for this. I will keep a look out for something similar that is free perhaps

its something of both: according to wikipedia( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transifex ) it was free
for open source projects it is still a free service
https://www.transifex.com/organizations/add/

The old code is still availabale: https://github.com/transifex/transifex
I hope this helps

I don't like Transifex so much beacause there is a pretty high barrier to contribute some translations to projects. You have to create an account and send a request to be a "member" of the translation team there to be able to contribute anything. With services like weblate.org (which are by contrast freely licensed) it is possible to propose something without a need to sign up anywhere.

I like the sound of weblate, I will look into it soon

I'd be more than happy to translate to Dutch.
