The specific translation can be found here: https://crowdin.com/translate/bitwarden-mobile/45/en-fa#1237.

The current translation has more up-votes, that's why we display "Bitwarden".

Hi @xmha97,

as per your screenshot, Crowdin has accepted your translation.
As stated before, the currently from our Crowdin-community approved translation, has more upvotes. You can up-/down vote on existing translations and if the community agrees on a "better" translation then that is the one which will be used.

App name. Shouldn't ever change.
is a description for the translation so translators have more context in which situations this is used.

I'll take your feedback back to the team, to possibly remove the Shouldn't ever change. from the description.

Kind regards,
Daniel
