You can help to translate the app on Weblate.

Alternatively, you can translate manually and create a pull request with your translation file. The base string resources can be found at:

/app/src/main/res/values/strings.xml

It is easiest to make a translation using the Android Studio XML editor, but you can always use your favorite XML text editor instead. Check out this guide to learn more about translation strings from Helpshift for Android.
