'About Ebola' is an app that was recently uploaded to the Google Play store that provides an array of information on the Ebola virus that has been ravaging parts of West Africa.
The outbreak has spurred an interest in people around the world looking to learn more about the disease, its causes, symptoms and treatment.
All the pertinent information is available on the Internet of course, but the 'About Ebola' app condenses everything into a simple app. The app and its information can be accessed in English as well as a few West African languages. Further African languages are expected to be added in the future.
The app doesn't have the most fancy design, it presents all the relevant information in the form of text and a few graphics.
