I had originally posted this topic as a request for one of the above locations, but Shiro has mentioned the Team will be looking and working on the missing ones.
Since I could not remove the whole topic, I am editing the post and making it a reference list for possible issues.
Thank you, Slowly team, for all the nice stamps.

Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha have commonly one ISO, but Slowly uses a version with 3 different ISOs SH, AC and TA, you can see it in the app itself by searching new users per nation.
Also, there are 3 different flags for them, even though Saint Helena is often used as the flag of all of them together. Considering Slowly uses 3 different ISOs they could add 3 flags.
About Saint Martin, I didn’t include it because the official flag is the French one and I didn’t find any date for the unofficial one.

I understand that the Slowly team is already working so hard, but i just wanted to let you know that the flag that represents Belarus in your app is used as a symbol of oppression. The current and more appropriate version of Belarus's flag is the one on these pictures. Dictator declared this flag extremist in 2021 due to the fact that it was used by opposition as a sign of independent Belarus, but his presidency is not legitimate and so are any of the laws that has been passed under his government.
If due to political or any other reasons it's difficult for you to change the stamp that represents Belarus, i'd like to ask you to at least add another Belarus stamp in honor of "Жыве Беларусь!" movement and the protests of 2020-2021. This is really important for the people of this country.
Жыве Беларусь! — is a patriotic call-motto aimed at awakening national and civic feelings, consolidating the people of Belarus in defense of freedom, independence of their country, native language, and the entire national culture. The wide use of this expression-phraseology at different times became possible due to its content - a wish for the prosperity of one's land, one's state. It is considered as a national motto — one of the Belarusian national symbols along with the emblem of the Pursuit and the white-red-white flag
There is already a post for this request, you can support it here (but only the flag is mentioned there, not the slogan):

It's nice that each state can have its own flag stamp. Even territories that are not sovereign states have a stamp with a flag.
But when will we finally be able to get those marks!
I can't ask a user from the state of Åland to send me this stamp because Slowly doesn't offer that country for friend selection - nor can it, because it's not a separate state. I really don't intend to personally travel to every country. But with so many people pushing for these stamps to be created, they should also be available. What else would they be for?
How many residents in these autonomous territories use Slowly, one or two? And are these marks really intended only for these individuals?
There should be a way for the rest of us to buy these stamps.
I am requesting the creation of a flag stamp purchase box!
ASRandASR
prvosenka: I honestly think it’s a bug, they probably forgot to add AX (Aland) code, they didn’t add also BV (Bouvet Islands) and HM (Heard and McDonald Islands), I would report this as a bug. All the other territories with a ISO code are in the app already

As I see, here are suggestions for flags of countries that exist and some that don’t exist and for countries that never will exist because of political reasons (Taiwan) - with the comment „please be respectful“ - or they will exist, but only by risking a nuclear war and some who will not exist, because it is not the will of powerful countries, like Palästina and some that will exist someday because of the same powerful countries like Kurdistan and Kosovo, because of geopolitical reasons, some that will soon be deleted, depending on how many weapon the EU sends to the east (Ukraine or Russia) - but the question, we shall ask ourselves is, who judges which region of the world is worth to be honored by a flag-stamp in slowly? Is it the Zeitgeist? I would say either there were only the official existing countries (but that’s difficult, because the states of the world don’t agree about that point) or we don’t judge at all and let each and every culture/nation/tribe/region/historical area…the right to get a flag - wheather it is acknowledged by UN (or any other institution) or not, whether it exist or it had existed or will maybe exist on day in the future. That would be a kind of tolerance, that really is not influenced by a single ideology of a majority in the political influenced region where the company of slowly resides. So being consequent would mean, that even the states of the past and the flags of colonial states and states that were erased by loosing a war would be honored with a flag-stamp, just because they existed. Being winner or looser of a war, happens by chance and not by „God´s will“. That means we should not follow the opinion of the winner but being neutral. Like with the real post-stamps, that people collect - we don’t deny collecting stamps of a country influenced by our political attitude, we collect because of our will to conserve the history as it was. In conclusion that means: A flag of Poland should not offend Silesians - But also a flag of Upper Silesia or Western Pommery shall not offend Polish.

Ole Trần: totally agree with this, plus flags are all awesome and collecting as much as possible is the best way to honor flags and their meaning.
