I think that the localisation code should work for bundles. Could you
please provide an example of what you are trying to do?

What you should be calling is the method
localizedStringForKey:value:table: on your specific bundle.
NSLocalizedString() wont work, as this only loads resources from the
main bundle, but this behaviour is according to the documentation.
