Languages Options in Wrike

Dear Sir/ Madam,

Hope you are fine.

I can see the list of languages available in Wrike, but I would really love to see Standard Arabic as one of the options. Many Arab users would love to use the Wrike for their projects, enterprises, higher education institutions, and organizations. Arabic is the 6^th in ranking within the list of the most spoken languages in the World (274 million people worldwide speak Arabic).

I would be glad to help establish an Arabic version of Wrike in the coming future if there is a plan for that in Wrike! I really like this application and hope it expands its services to cover other common international languages like Arabic.

Thanks in advance for your kind cooperation & time,

Wish you and the team wonderful seasonal festivals,

Dr. Rabab Almouqahwi

Dear @Dr. Rabab Almuqahwi, welcome to the Community.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, I've passed it on to the relevant team. We'll be sure to let you know if there are any updates in relation to adding Arabic as one of the languages.

Please don't hesitate to let us know if you have any other questions.

Any movement/update on this? We too want to onboard our Arab offices to Wrike but lack of Arabic interface is a significant barrier

Dr. Rabab Almuqahwi

I agree with you Angela. There should be a serious solution to this barrier, and Wrike could take the initiative in doing this as this is a worldwide issue and lots of platforms lack this feature.

I would be glad if I can contribute to this initiative with all my knowledge & expertise.

Best Wishes

Thank you for raising this, Dr. Almouqahwi — I completely agree!
Expanding Wrike’s language optionswould be a fantastic step toward making the platform more accessible to global users.

In addition to a full Arabic version, even small improvements like supporting right-to-left (RTL) text direction in task comments and titles would already make a big difference!
It would help create a more inclusive and readable experience for multilingual teams.
I really hope Wrike continues moving in this direction — the demand is clearly there, and these kinds of updates make the platform more welcoming to all.

Dear Elise,

I hope you are fine.

Many thanks for your supporting words and message. We still have hope towards the positive change that could make this platform accessible to many users, educators, researchers and collaborator from the whole globe. My message was raised since the Covid-19 time, and we are all waiting for a positive reply to come from the Wrike management. As scholars and educators in the field we are ready to provide support with our knowledge and expertise. But there should be green light or first step to be taken from the people in charge.

I am an advisory board member in the annual Open Access Research Forum in MENA, and I had talked my presented papers about the initiative of making more accessibility and credibility to Arabic Research, and I mentioned the "Wrike" to be one on the excellent platforms for collaboration between educators and researchers from different language and cultural background, but if the Arabic language is added to the list of languages, that would be wonderful!

I think going for more evidence-based research work about this topic could help to prove the needs plus the gains and rewards for adding Arabic language with other language options.

I would be glad to conduct a collaborative need analysis study with you if anybody is interested.

Kind Regards,

Dr. Rabab Almuqahwi
