<p>In Liberia, female genital mutilation/cutting (FGM/C) is a legally allowed initiation ritual in the secret Sande society. Due to the secrecy, Liberian healthcare providers receive little education on FGM/C and its health consequences. As mobile learning approaches proved to efficiently increase providers&rsquo; knowledge and skills, a mobile application (&lsquo;app&rsquo;) was designed to support self-learning, decision-making, and the follow-up of FGM/C survivors&rsquo; health. The &lsquo;app&rsquo; was introduced in a capacity-building project in 2019 and evaluated through this qualitative study to assess healthcare provider&rsquo;s needs and acceptance. We conducted 22 semi-structured interviews and eight focus group discussions with 42 adult healthcare providers in three Liberian counties. A thematic approach grounded in descriptive phenomenology guided data analysis and led to three main themes: the &lsquo;app&rsquo;, mobile learning and health education, and personal impression. Healthcare providers judge the &lsquo;app&rsquo; useful to broaden their knowledge and skills, which might lead to better FGM/C detection and management. The &lsquo;app&rsquo; might further facilitate patient and community education about the negative health consequences of FMG/C, possibly contributing to a reduction of FGM/C prevalence.</p>
