Description

In the late 2000s, Apple popularized the phrase “There’s an app for that,” highlighting the abundance of apps available for the iPhone. But when Annie Vang of Madison got into app development around the same time, she didn’t see programs made in the Hmong language. Producer Hope Kirwan has more on the app she built and the way it’s keeping native speakers and beginners connected to the language.
