Imagine if those without smartphones could have all of the Apps4Africa apps in the palm of their hands plus all of the other apps that organizations and governments are developing!

_easilyUssd

USSD is available on all cellphones yet one can't find as many apps as one can think should be. USSD gateways are hard(very) to acquire. The solution suggested is a shared, street-affordable gateway where -
-developer with idea for an app downloads the _easilyUssd SDK.
-App is designed and developed on the devkit
-App is submitted to _easilyUssd where its vetted for practicality

-The app's address can then be distributed via sms, wap, etc.
