Astawq : Ethiopian Ad Service 1.0

The app initially displays the available listings along with their total quantities. Once the user selects the type of ad, they are taken to a location screen that also shows the total quantity of the selected ad type. By tapping on one of the location buttons, the user can view a listing that provides a brief description of the ad.

Each listing includes the country, state (if available), and city, along with a short description and the date the ad was created. If there are more than 20 ads in a listing, users can scroll to the bottom of the screen to load a fresh set of listings. This process continues until all available listings for that location and ad type have been displayed.

When a user taps on a specific ad in the listing screen, they are taken to an ad detail screen that provides more information about the ad, including contact information such as phone number and email.

Users have two options for navigation: they can use the back button to return to the initial screen and start over, or they can simply tap on the home icon located at the bottom of the screen, one of three available tabs.

Users also have access to a search feature by tapping on the search tab at the bottom of the screen. This allows them to find listings of interest.

In addition to these features, Astawq enables users to create ads for free by using the plus sign available on the Ad Type screen, Location screen, and listings screen. Users can also save ads to their favorite listings for later viewing. Additionally, there is an option to share any ad listing through various messaging apps, email, and social networking apps using the provided share button on the Ad details screen.

Astawq also provides access to the latest Ethiopian news, movies, music, and popular dramas. Upon its release (Version 5), Astawq includes the following news outlets: ESAT, Ethio 360, Zehabesha, Mereja TV, ASRAT TV, Walta TV, and Andafta. Furthermore, it offers a wide range of Ethiopian music genres such as Amharic Music, Afan Oromo Music, Tigrigna Music, Gurage Music, Afar Music, Gambela Music, and Harari Music. The platform also features popular dramas like Senselet, Zemen, Betoch, and many other acclaimed Ethiopian movies for entertainment purposes.
