Safe	“...there’s no tracing on what videos they’ve seen and content. Yes...women are going through domestic violence or children going through abuse or anything like that...perpetrators can’t see what content they’ve been watching or downloaded.” [Participant 6] “...verifying whether they’re Indigenous businesses and whether the content they’re sharing is culturally safe.” [Participant 2]
Practical relevant content and functionality is critical	“And I don’t like to have to see something and then I’ve got to, you know, do there’s 10 steps to just share it or save that link.” [Participant 5] “I find government websites are the hardest - like you Google, it gives you a link. And then it takes you to this really generic page.” [Participant 6] “So it’s like quite a specific useful piece of information. It’s like what age can I begin screening? Which age should I begin screening Pap smears. I’m now that I am 51 I like information on what to expect now that I’m in that age group.” [Participant 6] “basic English ‘this is what’s happening to your body.’” [Participant 8]

Yeah. you know, and how they speak and understanding and, you know, just context around it.” [Participant 14] “Anything to do with sexual health. Definitely.” [Participant 6] “...grew up with the women being separated from the men. We have women’s business that included intel that the men are not allowed to know about and it’ll be good if we could have some sort of health women’s health information.” [Participant 8] “...need a place there for them to have questions and answers, and especially where they have professional answers, and then they’ve also got the sister answers.” [Participant 9] “It would be so good to have like an app where you can go on and you can ask private questions of women’s business.” [Participant 8] “...get an app, you could put all of that into it, you know. Like, you know, somebody asks a question, and then they get a – a professional answer, they get a community answer, and then they get the pictures...there could be Indigenous nurses, Indigenous doctors talking on there.” [Participant 3] “it would be really good to do an Aboriginal meditation. That would just be so amazing...you could have it like an app that has, you know, spiritual yoga and - You know, medicines that can be used.” [Participant 1]
