The Egyptian government has shut down 88 percent of the country’s internet access amid mass protests. If you’re on the road and away from a computer, fortunately there’s a free iPhone app to tune in to the latest developments.
Available in the App Store, international news network Al Jazeera has a free iOS app with live coverage of the protests, so you can watch the Egyptian revolution unfold on your phone. The app features access to news articles, photos and live video of the protests. It’s a really quick, snappy app to keep up with the news.
