Illustrations for a medical advice app should be simple, clear and concise, while still conveying the maximum amount of information needed. A good example that was recommended were the instruction manuals that come with Ikea furniture. These instructions are always laid out clearly and use as few illustrations as possible to guide the user. A character is also used to highlight important aspects of the instructions, such as tools required and when assistance may be required. There is a minimal use of colour so as to further simplify the look of the instructions and so details can be picked out quickly. These aspects are applied to all instructions produced by the company and combine to result in a highly efficient and successful set of universal illustrations.

OUGD504 - Studio Brief 02 - App Illustrations
It was suggested in a tutorial that the 111 app could include illustrations to accompany the medical advice text, as it was highlighted during the research stage that many of the other apps available also use a combination of text and images.
