Leeds Guide 3.2.0.0
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 Leeds Guide will do the trick if they are about to visit the culture and history-filled English city.
Tidy interface, easy to work with
This application brings forth a slightly different look as it is focused mainly on a map-based navigation, which has a significant influence on the overall appearance. This generally means that the visually pleasing elements of graphical design are left aside as the practical aspect takes over.
From the visual perspective, a noticeable advantage is the good feel of the fluent navigation in the road view, in the aerial mode and also among the several areas of the utility, as it lacks any kind of delay or some other type of defect.
Find the points of interest with no efforts
The top attractions of Leeds are included in a separate section, from where you can open the corresponding articles which are arranged neatly, in alphabetical order and learn a bit about each place.
This guide puts at your disposal a relatively small number of attractions, just under 40 and they are starred on the map, so by zooming in and pressing once on the number assigned to each of them you can view their name. Another tap on the same spot will lead you into the informational section that corresponds to that particular place.
Lots of facts and figures for each location
For every spot included in Leeds 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 tourist attractions.
Should you be interested in viewing the entire article and all the associated references, you have at your fingertips the link to the original page inside each section containing data about the selected place.

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
From the visual perspective, the app has only a few things to offer, like the nice pictures of each spot included in its database and the smooth navigation. |
Function7
There is a decent amount of info provided about each location listed inside Leeds Guide, but the app could certainly use a lot more entries in its database. |
Security9
The utility seems to be safe to install and use, but it is important to consider that it still needs to access the phone identity for some reason. |
Battery3
The power consumption for this application is extremely high and the drainage continues even if the app is left active in the background. |
Price10
Free for all to use and enjoy, the virtual guide provides lots of details for each place in store and lacks any ads or other nuisances. |
Compatibility10
Tailored for use on any Windows Phone device on the market, this utility only requires that the handset is powered by at least version 7 of the operating system. |
