Gdansk Guide 4.2.0.0
Because there is no lack of information resources, some users are most likely to be tempted to carry out this activity while on the go and those who own a Windows Phone handset can enlist the help of a tool like Gdansk Guide if they are about to visit the largest seaport in Poland.
Simple interface, bent on practicality
The application brings a somewhat different perspective as its interface is built around the map of the city and there are not many elements of design that could pass as attractive.
Nonetheless, browsing the map view of the city is fairly smooth, as the display adapts promptly to any changes of perspective in both the road and aerial view modes.
The imagery is of high quality in the aerial view, but sometimes it takes a bit to load when zooming in quickly to certain spots.
All the tourist attractions at your fingertips
The top attractions of Gdansk are included in a separate section, from where you can open the corresponding articles, which are arranged neatly, in alphabetical order and learn a bit about each place.
You also have the possibility to check out the exact location of the landmarks on the map and by zooming in and pressing once on the number assigned to each of them you can view their name and a second tap will open the corresponding informative section.
Discover the details of each interesting spot and view some nice photos
For every spot included in Gdansk Guide you can read the information provided by the Wikipedia articles and there are also some neat digital images that are quite illustrative for each of the locations.
In case you want to check out the original page, there is a link included inside each article, so you can reach the source page and can get a lot more details.
A neat extra option is the seamless integration with the navigation solution installed on your phone and this will help you get directions to any of the spots you want to visit and find your way by car or by foot.
