Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Every time we translate our apps, we have the same source strings in our iOS and Android apps, except one detail: In our Android app we use %s and in our iOS app we use %@.

Describe the solution you'd like
The thing would be about comparing both source string, and if the only changes is the %s/%@, take the same translation but with the correct symbol.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Currently, we manually copy translations and replace %s to %@ (or %@ to %s depending on what was translated first)

Additional context
We have an automatic propagation for same strings, please add support for this little details that will change everything.

Example:
We translate this in our iOS app component:

Hello %@ -> Bonjour %@

Automatic propagation would do the same in our Android app component

Hello %s -> Bonjour %s

(which is already existing for strings without %s/%@ changes)
