Anchor web: Now localized for more creators around the world

We’re making it easier for anyone to create and manage their podcast in their own language

By Anchor

One of our biggest goals is to ensure that creators everywhere have access to all the robust tools and features Anchor has to offer. And while creators around the world have been able to record, host, and grow their podcast on our platform, Anchor on web hasn’t always been available to everyone in their native language. But today we’re changing that in a big way, as part of our mission to empower all creators: Anchor web is now available in 35 languages, so millions more people around the world can easily create and manage their podcasts in their own language—right from their dashboard.

How it works: 1. Sign up. To get started, let us know you're interested by answering a few questions. 2. Upload on Anchor. Once approved, click 'New episode' and 'Quick upload' to add a video file. 3. View on Spotify. Once it's published, your video episode will live directly in your Spotify catalog.

Here are the languages we’re adding:

‍

  • Bulgarian
  • Chinese (Simplified)
  • Chinese (Traditional)
  • Czech
  • Danish
  • Dutch
  • Estonian
  • Finnish
  • French (Canada)
  • French (France)
  • German
  • Greek
  • Hindi

Anchor on web not only makes it easier for podcasters to create and manage all aspects of their show in one place, but also access to game-changing tools and features.
