Great potential but limited languages

This app would be a fantastic addition to use in our hospital, however the languages available are not beneficial for our demographics. Would love to see Farsi, Burmese and Nepali.

amazing potential

thankyou for writing.
can we please have these translated into kurdish-kumanji As these refugees are our newest and we could use the Audio button as many do not read.
also, can we have some childrens phrases eg with children we do not talk talk about “bowel motion” but we simply say “poo”. and for the babies its not just “do you want a drink” but “ is the baby thirsty” or “does the baby want a bottle/drink/milk”. please keepwriting. looks great.
thankyou, Catherine Paediatrician Armidale NSW Australia
