My memory is really foggy on this, but I remember creating the localizable.strings files myself. I believe Xcode has the capabilities of doing that now. You'd still need to populate those files with strings though. This site has a little more info: https://medium.com/lean-localization/ios-localization-tutorial-938231f9f881
