Cellphone app for sasfox . co . za , classified ad site

With more than twothirds of visitors to the SA Small Farmers Online Exchange , sasfox . co . za , accessing the site from their smartphones we have now launched a phone app for the site which makes it even more user-friendly . And , as a bonus , the app integrates the existing Gauteng Smallholder website so that users have access to both the online classified advertisement exchange and the information and other features of the Smallholder site , as well as back issues of the magazine , on their phones . The sasfox app makes browsing the advertisements on the site a breeze , with an automatic dial-up button built in . This means that , when you spot an item you wish to enquire about , you need hit only one button to dial the seller ' s number , rather than typing in the entire number ( with the resultant possibility of errors ). The app also makes it easier for us to communicate with readers , for example in sending out notifications when the magazine has been published and also for releasing critical news into the market . To install the app on your phone , go to the Google Playstore . Downloading and usage of the app is free of charge . The launch of our app is just one of a number of enhancements carried out on the sasfox site in the past month . In addition we have revamped , and are adding to , our sections on farmers markets and auctions countrywide . And , of course , the number of classified advertisements being posted to the site is growing daily , with interest being generated countrywide .
