Abstract
To localize the textual interface of the SureWash Pocket® mobile health app and to present the methodological experience used in the localization process. Software localization study to Brazilian Portuguese. The localization process was carried out between December 2018 and June 2019 in the city of Cuiabá/MT, through six steps: permission to localize the software; two independent translations; synthesis of translations; evaluation of the validity of the textual interface by a Committee of Expert Judges; back translation; and publication. The textual interfaces were organized into 107 items and analyzed by ten expert judges. In the first round, 64% of the items reached a pre-established minimum agreement level of 90%. During the second round, 39 remaining items were adapted according to consensual suggestions and the pre-final version was consolidated. The localization process suggests that the localized SureWash Pocket® is considered valid and can be used for an educational intervention on hand hygiene.
