Lagos Guide 4.1.0.0
Learning as much as possible about the places to see is a common activity that many users can now carry out from their mobile devices. For those who own a Windows Phone device, a tool like Lagos Guide will do the trick if they are about to visit the most important city in Nigeria.
Easy to browse interface, with a practical design
From the visual point of view, this application doesn't offer a lot since its looks are mainly designed to be more functional than appealing. Everything revolves the map displayed inside the main screen and all the functions and commands are placed conveniently, for quick access.
Moving around on the app has a quite fluent feel to it in both modes the utility comes with, namely the aerial and road views, while getting about the various sections is also smooth at all times. At certain points there are some glitches in the map view because of the way in which the satellite imagery is shown.
Go through the main tourist attractions on the fly
This virtual guide offers a very well organized method of browsing all the items 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 in alphabetical order.
You also have the possibility to view the exact location on the map and tap the number on the markers to reveal the names of those spots.
Neat text descriptions, complete with relevant images
Lagos Guide brings you a fine selection of details that are taken from one of the most reliable online sources, Wikipedia. The pictures that accompany each landmark will also help you make a good idea about that specific place.
Should you care to view all the available data for any entry on the places list, you can use the URL address that links to the source article and explore the extra info on the fly.

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
The aspect of this application is somewhat simple, while the layout is well structured offering a pleasant experience from end to end. |
Function6
The information brought by this utility is pretty useful, but the faulty integration with the navigation solution and the very small number of locations it has in store make it lose a lot. |
Security9
This app seems to be fairly safe to install and use, however users should be aware that it will look into the phone identity area for some reason. |
Battery4
Lagos Guide needs quite a bit of energy to function well, so the increasing power consumption will have a negative impact on the battery, which will discharge a lot quicker. |
Price8
The fact that it doesn't require a purchase and lacks annoying ads and prompts works well in its advantage, but the rather limited database decreases a bit its value. |
Compatibility10
The application works on every Windows Phone powered handsets as it only needs version 7 or above of the OS to function well. |
