Bangalore Guide 4.0.0.0
In case you do not have the time to do this some days or weeks ahead, there are plenty of online and offline resources that can help you carry out this activity even while you are on your way to that vacation spot and Bangalore Guide is one of them.
Simple looks and efficient layout
The app brings a somewhat different approach as its interface is built around the map of Bangalore and there are few elements of design that could pass as attractive. Thus, the visually pleasing elements of graphical design are left aside as the practical aspect takes over
Going through the several areas of the app and navigating the map in road or aerial view mode has a really fluent feel to it.
Easily find the landmarks on the map or inside the dedicated list
With Bangalore Guide you have at your disposal over 40 interesting places to see and they are marked on the map. By zooming in and pressing once on the number assigned to each of them you can view their name and a second tap will open the corresponding informative section.
This application offers another method of browsing all the items included in its database, namely through the alphabetically ordered list of locations that is accessible via the main menu at the bottom of the main screen.
Learn about each local attraction on the fly
This utility enables you to learn some interesting facts about each place it has in its database and the details are accompanied by high-quality images that help you get a complete image. The data comes from Wikipedia, one of the most reliable online sources.
There is even more info you can easily access if you want to learn more about any of the attractions and this can be done by visiting the source page for which the URL address is made available inside every listing.

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
The aspect of this application is somewhat simple, while the layout is well structured offering a pleasant experience from end to end. |
Function7
The amount of information provided by Bangalore Guide for each location is sufficient, but the number of places it includes in its database could be increased. |
Security9
On the whole, the utility seems to be fairly safe to install and use, however it should be noted that, for some reason, it requires access the phone identity. |
Battery3
The battery will be exhausted in a couple of hours if users will let this app run continuously, as it has a massive power consumption. |
Price8
The fact that it doesn't require a purchase and lacks annoying ads and prompts works well in its advantage, but the rather limited database decreases a bit its value. |
Compatibility9
Most Windows Phone devices can have this app installed and running as it only needs version 7.5 and above of the operating system. |
