First Aid Guide 1.0.0.0

A useful virtual handbook that can help in case injuries or various types of sickness appear
In case of medical emergencies it is very important that someone at the scene is familiar with the procedures that have to be followed in order to ensure the person affected by a trauma or a sudden manifestation of a preexisting condition receives the necessary assistance until a medic can examine them.

For this reason, having close at hand a virtual helper like First Aid Guide can make an important difference in the favor of those who have it installed onto their Windows Phones.

Plain interface, oriented towards ease of use

The GUI this application comes with is very simple, clean and easy to work with. The graphics are nothing out of the ordinary, the dark green tint of the background being basically the only relevant element of the front-end that has somewhat of a special appearance.

Moving through the list of conditions with potential for emergency is done seamlessly, without any issues and reading the content of each entry is a straightforward job as the information is displayed in an organized manner. There is a certain hindrance that will follow you all the way through this app, namely the ad banners that keep on changing everywhere they appear.

Search as you type and switch from one article to another on the fly

First Aid Guide is equipped with a smart search engine that will help you get to the desired database entry on the fly. All you have to do is begin typing the name of an illness or injury and the app will start making suggestions as you write the letters in the search field.

While you have an article open, in the lower part of the screen you will see the buttons for moving to the next or to the previous entry. Unfortunately, there is no way of selecting the text or sharing the knowledge.

Bottom Line
Design / UI6
 

The generally unappealing looks of this application coupled with the annoying advertisements work against it and make it lose a good deal of points from the visual perspective, despite the smooth navigation and neat structure.

Function9
 

Al the information contained inside First Aid Guide is very valuable and users can get in no time the details they need to start treating some illnesses and injuries on their own. The search feature is very well implemented and also of great help.

Security7
 

For some reason, the app will have to have access to the phone dialer, owner identity, phone identity and other areas of the system that are not related to its functionality.

Battery8
 

Having this utility up and running will require a moderate amount of power, so the battery usage will reach average levels.

Price9
 

First Aid Guide is a valuable resource of information and it is a great thing that it offers for free all the knowledge it gathered, with the ads being the only visible deterrent.

Compatibility9
 

The application is ready for use on most Windows Phone devices since it only needs version 7.5 and above of the operating system to be installed.
