For those who own a Windows Phone powered device, a tool like El Paso Guide will do the trick if they are about to visit a beautiful and historical region of Texas.

Easy to go through interface, with a practical aspect

The utility comes with a front-end that is centered on the map of El Paso and it leaves other visual enhancements aside, as it focuses on practical use. Everything revolves the map displayed inside the main screen and all the functions and commands are placed conveniently, for quick access.

Moving around on the map has a quite fluent feel to it in both modes the app comes with, namely the aerial and road views, while getting about the various sections of the utility is also smooth sailing.

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
 

The looks of this application are rather simple, with a clear focus on the practical side, but they manage to gain some good points from the visual perspective.

Function7
 

The information brought by this utility is pretty useful and the nice digital pictures are a plus, but there are too few locations included inside this guide.

Security9
 

The app remains fairly discreet while running, but it will still need to access the phone identity for some reason.

Battery5
 

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.

Price8
 

Overall, El Paso Guide is a good tool to have since it brings some useful information in a simple form, without asking for anything in return.

Compatibility9
 

The application works on almost Windows Phone powered handsets as it only needs version 7.5 or above of the OS to function.
