</div>

in ios sdk, there is an ability to customize strings like:

\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_

We customized some strings in MobileRTCSample project, as follows:

```
"Waiting..." = "Sample Waiting..."; "Zoom" = "SDK Sample"; "Leave" = "Exit"; "Leave Meeting" = "Exit Meeting";

\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_

is there a way to do that in Android SDK, and is there a list we can customize in ios and android?

Yes. For Android, you can define the same key of the string in your main project to override zoom sdk strings.

I tried to do it in Android, but I dont know the key values, spaces and “…” are not allowed.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Is there a list of key values for Android?
