Glasgow Guide 3.5.0.0

A smart traveling companion for any tourist who is going to visit Scotland's beautiful Glasgow
When lining out the plans for a short trip or a vacation you want to spend abroad a good idea would be to get some information regarding the facilities and local attractions you will find when you arrive there.

If you simply do not have the time to do this some days or weeks ahead, there are plenty of online and offline resources that can help you carry out this activity even while you are on your way to that vacation spot and Glasgow Guide is one of them.

Unadorned and very practical appearance

This tool offers a perspective that will surely seem interesting for many as soon as the app loads. More precisely, the front-end consists of an online map that allows you to quickly move around and pick the locations you are interested in learning more about.

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 that Glasgow Guide enables you to select from the main menu placed at the bottom of the screen.

Explore the landmarks of the Scottish city on the go

This utility will enable you to enjoy a well organized method of browsing all the items that are included in its database. Thus, if you opt for the places list that is accessible via the main menu at the bottom of the main screen, you will have all the locations on display, neatly structured and presented in alphabetical order.

Glasgow Guide also allows you to experiment taking the virtual tour by picking any of the spots marked on the map to view their name, while with another tap on them enter the areas where all the details are provided.

Read all about the places you are interested in

For every spot included in this guide you can read the details provided by the Wikipedia articles and there are also some neat photographs that are illustrative for each of the locations.

There is even more info you can easily access if you want to learn more about any of the attractions and this can be done by visiting the source page for which the URL address is made available inside every listing.

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
 

The neatly structured layout, smooth navigation and decent quality photos score some good points, even if the focus is on practicality.

Function7
 

There is a proper amount of info provided about each location listed inside Glasgow Guide, but the number of places included in the app's database is relatively reduced.

Security9
 

On the whole, the application seems to be safe to install and use, but users should keep in mind that, for some reason, it requires access the phone identity.

Battery4
 

The utility is by no means light on the battery resources, as it takes up a large amount of power when running.

Price10
 

The virtual guide comes for free and can be of real help for tourists that are in Glasgow or for those who are preparing to visit the beautiful European city.

Compatibility10
 

There should be no issues in running this app onto all Windows Phone powered devices out there as it only requires a device with version 7 of the OS installed.
