Las Vegas Guide 3.5.0.0
For those who are preparing to take a trip there, having at hand on their Windows Phones a little helper like Las Vegas Guide to show them some of the main attractions on the Strip could be a very good idea.
Uncomplicated look and well organized GUI
This 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. Thus, the visually pleasing elements of graphical design are left aside as the practical aspect takes over.
Going through the various sections of the application and navigating from one place to another on the map are carried out seamlessly, without any visible delay of other kind of glitch in both the aerial and road views.
Check out the local attractions and access them on the fly
Las Vegas Guide manages to offer a very 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 in alphabetical order.
The numbers on the map stand for the same places, so you ca see exactly where they are located and when tapping the markers you will see the name of that point of interest and with another tap you will open its information box.
Useful information and relevant images at a glance
For every spot included in Las Vegas 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 high-quality imagery and smooth navigation are main assets of this application that is generally lacking visual attractiveness. |
Function8
There is a decent amount of info provided about each location listed inside Las Vegas Guide, but the details and pictures could receive some updates. |
Security9
This utility will only look a the phone's identity for some reason, but other than that it remains discreet and leaves other system areas alone. |
Battery2
The app is clearly a battery drainer, as it will eat up all the energy in a couple of hours of continuous use. |
Price8
Overall, Las Vegas Guide is a good tool to have since it brings some useful information in a simple form, without asking for anything in return. |
Compatibility10
Ready to run on every Windows Phone handset on the market, this application only needs version 7 or above of the operating system to run well. |
