The updates related to string concatenation were not specifically mentioned in the provided context from the WWDC sessions. However, there were discussions about improvements in Swift, including updates to the Swift standard library and new capabilities in Swift 6.2, which might indirectly affect how strings are handled in terms of performance and functionality.
For more detailed information on string handling and related updates, you might want to check the session titled "What’s new in Swift" from WWDC 2025, which covers various improvements in Swift 6.2, including string APIs and performance enhancements. You can find more about these updates in the What’s new in Swift session starting at the "Language evolution: Performance" chapter.

Enhance your app’s multilingual experience
Create a seamless experience for anyone who uses multiple languages. Learn how Language Discovery allows you to optimize your app using a person’s preferred languages. Explore advances in support for right-to-left languages, including Natural Selection for selecting multiple ranges in bidirectional text. We’ll also cover best practices for supporting multilingual scenarios in your app.

Code-along: Explore localization with Xcode
Learn how to localize your app into additional languages using Xcode. We’ll walk step-by-step through the process of creating a String Catalog, translating text, and exchanging files with external translators. You’ll learn best practices for providing necessary context to translators and how Xcode can help to provide this information automatically. For larger projects, we’ll also dive into techniques to manage complexity and streamline string management using type-safe Swift code.
