All of Aksay
in one app

A city map and directory, buses and trains, outages at your address, on-duty pharmacies, news, cinema and requests to the akimat. Not sure where to look? Ask Ailana: she answers in plain words and shows it on the map.

Ailana

Ask about the town like you would ask a neighbour

Ailana sits in the middle of the bottom menu. She answers from the app’s own data, not from the internet: she checks places, opening hours, distance and address, and puts cards with Route and Call buttons right under the answer.

On-duty pharmacy When will the water be off? Which bus goes to the polyclinic? Where can we have dinner with the kids? What’s on at the cinema? Today’s weather

Knows the town

1,447 Aksay businesses with opening hours, bus stops, pharmacies and the cinema.

Sees outages

Tells you about power, water and heating at your address and names the emergency line.

Calls a taxi

Say where you are going: Ailana finds the address and opens Yandex Go with the route ready.

Buses and trains

Two languages

Answers in Kazakh or Russian, the language of the app.

Ailana answers from the app’s data and can make mistakes. Check anything important on the place card.

Outages

An outage is shown only to the homes it affects

Utilities publish a list of streets and houses. The app checks it against your address, so works on the next street won’t bother you.

1

Add your address

Once, in your profile. Write it the way you’re used to: “Karachaganakskaya 20” or “10 mkr, 21”.

2

The server matches houses

Every power, water, gas and heating outage is checked by street and house number, not by the whole district.

3

A notice on the Home screen

If the works affect your house, you’ll see the start and end time right under the search bar. The full town list is in Outages.

For the akimat and services

What problems the town has and what’s already fixed

For residents the app is a convenience. For the akimat it means requests with photos and addresses instead of comments in chats, a clear status for every problem and a direct line to residents: outages, news and polls go out from one admin panel.

What’s next

  • Push notifications by home address
  • Release on the App Store and Google Play
  • Live buses on the map as soon as the operator opens its GPS data
  • The whole interface and directory in Kazakh

Requests with a photo and a pin

Category, photo and spot on the map. No need to ask where exactly.

Real residents

Personal sections use eGov sign-in: requests come from a real person, not an anonymous account.

Staff roles

Administrator, moderator and operator. Each sees their own part of the work.

Deadlines in plain sight

Overdue requests are highlighted and don’t get lost in a drawer.

Export to Excel

All requests with a summary in one click, for reports to the region.

Ready for another town

The directory, houses and streets load from 2GIS. Launch in a new town without rewriting anything.

FAQ

The short version

Does it cost anything?

No. The app is free, with no ads and no subscriptions.

Do I have to sign in with eGov?

No. The map, Ailana, transport, pharmacies, news and directory work straight away. eGov sign-in is only needed for personal things: requests, meters and booking a meeting.

Where does the data come from?

Businesses, houses and streets come from 2GIS, akimat leadership from gov.kz, trains from Yandex Schedules, weather from the Aksay weather station via rp5, air quality from Open-Meteo satellite data. News comes from gov.kz and local media; outages are published by the administration through the admin panel.

Why isn’t it on the App Store or Google Play?

The app is in open beta. On iPhone it installs through TestFlight, Apple’s official beta channel, and on Android from a file on our site. A store release is coming soon.

What languages does the app support?

Kazakh and Russian; you choose on first launch, and Ailana replies in the same language. There is no English version of the app yet.

Can you launch the same app in our town?

Yes. Town data loads from 2GIS and sections are set up in the admin panel. Call or write and let’s talk.
