woopy is a Universal App template where you can browse and post listings on the go, new or used stuff you want to sell. You can search for keywords or category, chat with the seller by his item’s page, log in with Facebook or email, like and share ads, and a lot more.
Besides uploading up to 3 images while posting an ad, This app allows you to also upload a 10-second video, this is a great feature that other listings classifieds apps do not have!
Users will be able to report ads or users and block/unblock inappropriate users to prevent getting chat messages from blocked people. They will also able to send Feedbacks to other sellers

woopy has also a verification email system, once a user signs up by email (not by Facebook), back4app sends a verification email based on the email address the user typed in the signup screen. People will be able to see if a user is Verified or not by entering his/her Profile screen.

The Categories names and images are stored into the Parse Dashboard, so you’ll be able to add new categories remotely without having to update the app.
Check its video preview to see it in action!

woopy is a native XCode project, Swift language, Storyboard, Universal, super easy to customize, backend with Parse Server hosted on https://back4app.com
