Hello @lang1s

Apologies for the delay in getting back to you regarding this. The lack of Estonian support for iOS is expected, as we decided to showcase only Android and Desktop for several languages, one of these being Estonian (due to usage metrics). Thank you for the cultural and historical context that you provided - we will consider this when reassessing supported languages per platform.
