I am translating an app into Indonesian. The storyboard uses a navigation controller and push segues for all of its view. When I go to a view from the main menu the back button is translated correctly, but when i go to a view from there (two views away from the main menu) the back button says "Back". Thanks in advance for your help.

Please check in your "App"-Info.plist the setting "Localization native development region" and change your default language to "id" for Indonesian. As noted at other sites this affects the language on iOS default buttons like "Edit" or "Done".
