Issue with iOS Localization - NSLocalizedString

I have an issue with NSLocalizedString, I try to translate the text below which is located in one of the tab bar icons, but what only appears is Text_to even after giving the equivalent in the other language in infoPlist.Strings (file)

My code :

[[self.tabBarController.tabBar.items objectAtIndex:0] setTitle:NSLocalizedString(@"Text_to", nil)];

infoPlist.Strings (file) :

"Text_to" = "translated text is here";

Just for the info, I am working under xCode 5.0.2 and iOS7

Any ideas on how to solve it ?

In order to localise your strings you should add the to Localizable.strings file corresponding to the language you would like to translate.
Here is a quick overview from Apple about how to do it Localising Strings and also a tutorial to create a new strings file for your target language Creating string files

You must be sure your project has internationalisation on:
iOS7 Internationalisation enabled

In your project navigation inspect if you've already create a strings files for your target language:

Try putting it into the file Localizable.strings instead of infoPlist.Strings.
