Easy to use front-end, with an efficient layout
This application brings you a relatively different perspective compared to other tools of this kind as it focuses on a map-based navigation method and this influences a lot the appearance. Thus, the visually pleasing elements of graphical design are left aside as the practical aspect takes over.
Browsing the map view of Dortmund is fairly smooth, as the display adapts promptly to any changes of perspective in both the road and aerial view modes.
Find and check out the landmarks
This guide provides a simple method of viewing the local attractions, more precisely by accessing the places list area that can be opened from the main menu at the bottom of the screen. On that list you will have all the locations at hand, neatly structured in alphabetical order.
The really interesting landmarks that are worth visiting are marked on the map and by zooming in and pressing once on the number assigned to each of them you can view their name. With a second tap the corresponding informative section will open.

This guide displays a good deal of details concerning any of the entries on the list of places or when you make a selection from the map shown inside the main screen. The data is taken from one of the most reliable online sources out there, the well-known free online encyclopedia Wikipedia.

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
The application offers a decent appearance, focused on practicality, but with the content neatly structured and easy to browse. |
Function7
The amount of information provided for each location is sufficient, but there are simply way too few places included in the database. |
Security9
Dortmund Guide seems quite discreet and it manages to stay well off the sensitive areas of the system, but it still requires access to the phone identity for some reason. |
Battery3
The power consumption will be continuously increasing as the app is kept running, especially in the aerial view mode, so it might deplete the battery pretty fast. |
Price10
A decent source of information for a few interesting places any tourist would like to visit when visiting the interesting German metropolis, this tool has an excellent value on the whole. |
Compatibility10
This app is meant for use on any Windows Phone device out there, starting with handsets powered by version 7 of the operating system. |
