Ottawa is a bilingual city, and that means a bilingual fan experience on the digital side of things. The Ottawa Senators already support social-media channels for their Francophone fans. And, now, that bilingual support extends into the heart of the Ottawa Senators app. Not just a translated menu, but rather, a thoughtful French experience. Senators fans can unlock a dedicated French content hub directly from their profile:
News and video carousels, in French.
Division rivalry breakdownsโRivalitรฉs de Divisionโin French.
Weekly recapsโBilan de la Semaineโin French.
Media availabilityโDispo Mรฉdiasโin French, with players like Maxim Dubรฉ and Shane Pinto.
And the Ottawa Senators fan rallyโLe Rassemblement des partisans des Sรฉnateursโpromoted right in the app. In French.
This is the first of our NHL-team apps offering a bilingual app experience. Built with intentionality. Built with the fan in mind. Built with ๐ฆ๐ท๐ฆ๐ณ๐บ Sens fan in mind.
Because a fan shouldn't have to read their team in their second language.
And, now, in Ottawa, they don't have to.
Go Sens Go. ๐๐ญ๐ญ๐ฆ๐ป ๐ญ๐ฆ๐ด ๐๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ด!
๐ ๐ช๐ด๐ฃ๐ฎ๐ฒ. Matthew Perry and Anisia Laporte, thank you for putting your faith in us for the new Senators app, and also for being the first to push for a bilingual experience across our NHL team apps. This is a first in the platform for us, and we're proud to have launched that with you. I know that we have a number of other ships to launch still, and I am excited to see what we do together for the app and the Ottawa community at large.
