# FAQ: Do languages added by other apps count toward my Transcy plan limit?

**Short answer: yes.** Transcy counts the **total number of target languages active in your Shopify store**, no matter which app added them — including Shopify's own **Translate & Adapt** and any translation app you used before.

Your store's **default language is never counted**. Only target languages count.

## If you are seeing a limit message

If Transcy shows you something like **"Your current plan limits the number of languages published. Reselect and try again or upgrade to have more"**, or a **"Language migration needed"** notice, this is usually why: your store has more target languages than your plan covers, counting the ones other apps added.

## Why this matters before you choose a plan

Languages live at the store level in Shopify, and Transcy reads that total. So a language you added somewhere else still takes up one of your Transcy slots, even though you never added it inside Transcy.

**Example**

| In your store | Counted by Transcy |
| --- | --- |
| 1 default language | not counted |
| 2 languages added via Translate & Adapt | 2 |
| 1 language added in Transcy | 1 |
| **Total** | **3 → a Regional plan is exactly at its limit** |

## What to do

**→ Before choosing or upgrading a plan, check your real total.**

Go to **Shopify admin → Settings → Languages** and count the target languages listed there — published and unpublished, from every app. That number, not the number you added in Transcy, is what your plan has to cover.

| Plan | Total target languages |
| --- | --- |
| Free | 1 |
| Local Plus | 1 |
| Regional | 3 |
| Continental | 15 |
| Cross-Border | 50 |
| Global | 147 |

|| Languages cannot be added as a quota extension. If you need more than your plan allows, the only route is a higher plan — so it is worth checking the total first.

If you are not sure what your total is, contact us before you upgrade and we will confirm it with you.
