Barcelona Guide 3.5.0.0
Mobile users can do this documentation activity even while on the go, en route to that place and in case you are about to go for a trip in one of the largest European cities, Spain's Barcelona, you could use a bit of help from a dedicated app.
Map-based interface, focusing on practicality
Barcelona Guide is the utility that has a more special look that is centered more on navigation and providing the precise location of various landmarks rather than offering more visually appealing elements of graphical design.
The navigation on the map view of the city is quite smooth, as the display adapts promptly to any changes of perspective in both the road and aerial view modes. The only major delay you will surely notice occurs when the app starts, as it takes a while to load all the data.
The content is well structured and upon selecting any site highlighted on the map or from the list of places the textual information and the high quality photos will be loaded immediately.
Access relevant details about each place of interest with great ease
Barcelona Guide enables you to read the info hosted on the Wikipedia, the online free encyclopedia or every location it has included in its database. The imagery is illustrative and also informative, as it allows you to get a good overview of the selected place.
In case you want to check out the original page, there is a link included inside each article and on the source page you can get a lot more details, including transportation information, extra historical references and others.
An advantage offered by the list view of the highlighted locations is the alphabetical organization, which makes it a breeze to find any place of interest you want to find out more about.
