Barcelona 1.0.1.0
When it comes to a trip to Europe and one of its biggest cities, you can try a dedicated app that is designed for your Windows Phone and is suggestively called Barcelona.
Pleasant appearance and well drawn graphics
This utility offers a very nice looking perspective of the second largest city in Spain thanks to a panoramic wallpaper used as background throughout the app. The high-quality imagery included in the various sections of the application is accompanied by some decent graphics.
The content is very well structured and organized under relevant categories, so it is very easy to browse the information inside Barcelona. The navigation through the areas of the app is smooth and without any delays or other types of glitches.
Check out the best places to visit at a glance
The application provides a very short presentation of the city, but things get a little bit better when advancing through the other sections. Thus, you have a fine selection of locations in the Old City area well worth the time taken to tour them.
Some special places that have been at the center of the tourist's interest for decades are also put on display, alongside the most important architectural works of Antoni Gaudi.
Share content and keep interesting places in Barcelona close at hand
Thanks to this utility you will be able to help your friends learn a bit about the Spanish city as well, as you can distribute the content, text and images, through a dedicated sharing feature built-in this app.
In case you you want to have quick access to any of the areas of the application, using the "pin to start" feature you can add as many tiles as you want and then enter directly in those areas, without having to open the app.

Bottom Line
Design / UI9
The beautiful background, the good structuring of the content and the high quality pictures included in the articles, except for those in the photo album section help Barcelona score very well from the visual perspective. |
Function6
The amount of data provided by this utility may seem a bit scarce, as it covers mostly cultural landmarks and leaves aside other types of attractions that make the Spanish city one of the most sought-after vacation destinations for tourists worldwide. |
Security7
There are a few secure system areas in which this app needs to look, but without any connection to the actual functionality. |
Battery8
The application needs a relatively small amount of power to run well, so the battery usage is kept at low to moderate levels. |
Price7
There is a decent amount of info about cultural reference points inside Barcelona, but it needs to broaden its area of interest to increase its overall value. |
Compatibility8
Mostly suited for the more recent devices on the market, the utility can only be installed on Windows Phoen8 and above handsets. |
