The issue is still present in v2.1.2-RC0 which was tagged today:

https://github.com/corona-warn-app/cwa-app-android/blob/8687a6e4bb510cc5b6e82e16af85b32d7c88e87d/Corona-Warn-App/src/main/res/values/antigen_strings.xml#L130.

coronatest_negative_antigen_result_first_info_body says:

"The test result is displayed her for 48 hours."

In the above "her" should be "here".

That would then be a correct translation of the equivalent German string:
"Das Test-Ergebnis wird 48 Stunden hier angezeigt."

Fix for iOS: https://github.com/corona-warn-app/cwa-app-ios/pull/2596/files#diff-8fc5b852f1f89c8368223b1ab28939b0b01f90542347b91e9bdb1e678b289dcaL685

In Android we are advised that string fixes to translations cannot be put into regular PRs.
https://github.com/corona-warn-app/cwa-app-android/blob/main/.github/pull_request_template.md
"The PR can not contain changes in localization files, e.g. values-[LANGUAGE-CODE]/strings/* and / or assets/* (see https://github.com/corona-warn-app/cwa-app-android/issues/332 for further information)."

That is why I opened a documentation issue and I have to wait for the Open Source Team to process.
The issue is not fixed at this time in Android branch release/2.1.x, nor in release/2.2.x.

I know of this limitation in Android, but iOS doesn't have this disclaimer anywhere so I opened this PR (probably the same limitations affect iOS too, but in the past I saw some PRs where the team just quickly mirrored to change back into the internal translation system - which should be especially easy when there was only one letter added).

Meanwhile I closed my PR again since the change has been done from the translation team (https://github.com/corona-warn-app/cwa-app-ios/pull/2596).

There's also a PR which fixes this for version 2.1 on iOS: https://github.com/corona-warn-app/cwa-app-ios/pull/2598

@Ein-Tim
Thanks for the information! Although https://github.com/corona-warn-app/cwa-app-ios/pull/2598 is not yet merged, I think we can close this issue, since the software version it concerns has not yet been released.
