Helsinki Guide 1.0.0.0
For those who are preparing to take a trip to the capital city of Finland, having at hand on their Windows Phones a little helper like Helsinki Guide to show them some of the main attractions could be a very good idea.
Clean GUI, focused on ease of use and practicality
This app has a relatively simple appearance that is based on the map orientation which is its most prominent feature. There are few, if any, elements of graphical design that could be considered attractive since the focus is clearly set of on practicality.
Going through the several areas of the utility and navigating the map in road or aerial view mode has a fluent feel to it. Also, the imagery included inside Helsinki Guide is of pretty good quality.
Go through the listed landmarks on the go
With the help of this utility you can take a quick look at the map and pick any of the marked spots to view their name and by tapping it enter the areas where all the details are provided.
A neat feature of Helsinki Guide is the well though-out structuring of the locations it includes, so you can easily pick the ones you find more appealing from an alphabetically ordered list. This section can be accessed with a single tap on the corresponding button hosted inside the main menu.
Detailed info and relevant photos for each tourist attraction
This utility enables you to read the info hosted on the Wikipedia, the online free encyclopedia or every location it has included in its database. The imagery is illustrative and also informative, as it allows you to get a good overview of the selected place.
If you want to go a step further and you feel like you need more info and photos, you can access the source page by pressing the link to the source that is placed inside each article included in Helsinki Guide.
