Feature Request: RTL (Right-to-Left) Language Support in Trello

Mohammad Eskandari April 12, 2025

Hello Trello Team,

I’d like to request native RTL (Right-to-Left) language support in Trello to improve the user experience for languages such as Persian, Arabic, Hebrew, and Urdu.

Why this matters:

  • Many Trello users around the world rely on RTL languages, and the current LTR-only interface makes it difficult to read and write effectively.

  • A major issue occurs when RTL and LTR words are used in the same sentence—this causes alignment problems and makes content hard to follow.

  • Lists, cards, and labels can become visually confusing and disorganized when RTL text is mixed with the default layout.

Trello is already an amazing productivity tool, and this feature would make it even more powerful and accessible for a global user base.

Thanks for considering this request!

HI @Mohammad Eskandari 

I just released an open-source RTL Power-Up that adds a right-to-left text editor to Trello cards - you might find it useful. It's an alpha version, browser only, so not via the app.

See the README for installation:

 >Privacy: stores data on the card via Trello pluginData; no third-party storage.

Thank you so much for sharing—I really appreciate you tackling this need. I'll definitely check out the alpha version right away!

The community will benefit greatly from this, even as a browser-only solution.

Hi Alex,

Thanks for the welcome and the links. I'll vote!

I just wanted to clarify that I'm requesting broader, native RTL support. This feature would include languages like Persian and Urdu, and comprehensively fix alignment issues and visual disorganization across all cards and lists for all global RTL users.

Thanks for considering the wider scope!
