Baltimore Guide 4.0.0.0
Those who like to search for relevant details about the most interesting locations in the largest independent city in the U.S.A. can try a neat utility that is meant for all Windows Phone users and goes by the name of Baltimore Guide.
Intuitive interface, with a simple look to it
The utility has a less common interface that is build upon a map of the actual city, so as to make it easier for you to browse the local attractions. The graphics are common and do not stand out through any element of design that would seem more eye catching.
Exploring the city using the map view is fairly smooth, as the display adapts promptly to any changes of perspective in both the road and aerial view modes that are supported by this virtual guide.
Effortless exploration of the points of interest
This utility succeeds in providing a couple of well organized methods of going through all the entries it holds in store inside its database. Thus, with Baltimore Guide you can take a quick look at the map and pick any of the marked spots to view their name and by tapping it enter the areas where all the details are provided.
The second method relies on the list of places that is accessible via the main menu at the bottom of the main screen. There you have all the locations at your fingertips and they are neatly structured in alphabetical order for increased ease of use.
Discover Baltimore's landmarks with photos and detailed info
For every spot included inside this application you can read the details provided by the Wikipedia articles it relies on. Also, there are some really neat photographs that are illustrative for each of the locations.
Should you care to view all the available data for any entry on the places list, you can use the URL address that links to the source article and explore the extra info on the fly.

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
The application offers a decent look, clearly bent on practicality, but with the content well structured and easy to browse. |
Function7
The amount of details provided by Baltimore Guide for each touristic attraction is adequate, but there are just too few places included in its database. |
Security9
All in all, the app looks to be safe to install and use, but users should note that it requires access to the phone identity for some reason. |
Battery4
The power consumption for this utility is quite high, so the battery will deplete after a relatively short time, especially if the aerial view is used extensively. |
Price8
As a source of information for a few interesting places any tourist would like to visit when visiting Baltimore this tool has a good value on the whole. |
Compatibility9
As long as the device it is installed on is running Windows Phone 7.5 or above, the guide will function without any problems. |
