Kiev Guide 4.2.0.0
Mobile users can do this documentation activity even while on the go, en route to that place and in case you are about to go for a trip in Ukraine's capital and one of the oldest cities in the Eastern part of Europe, Kiev Guide could be a handy helper.
Intuitive front-end made for effortless use
The app offers a somewhat different perspective than other tools of its kind as it focuses on a map-based navigation method and this influences a lot the appearance. 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 Kiev Guide is of pretty good quality.
Discover the landmarks at a glance
This utility puts at your disposal a list of places that can be accessed via the main menu shown in the lower side of the main screen, so you can easily go through the tourist attractions on the fly.
The guide comes with just under 40 really interesting spots to visit and they are marked on the map. 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.
Kiev Guide can also help you find your way to any of the selected places, as it works in conjunction with the navigation app installed on your phone.
View relevant pics and read all about each listed location
For every spot included inside the app's database you can read the details provided by the Wikipedia articles and there are also some neat photographs that are illustrative for each of the tourist attractions.
Extra details can be found in the complete articles which you can access by tapping the links placed at the beginning of each selected description, so you have the possibility to verify if something has changed over the years.

Function7

Keeping this utility up and running will drain the battery fairly fast as its power consumption increases constantly, especially while in the aerial view mode. |
