London 1.0.0.0
For those who are getting ready to travel abroad and visit one of the most important cities in Europe, can help a lot to have at hand a specialized app, like the one suggestively called London, which can uncover some details about the main points of interest for tourists worldwide.
A neat GUI with a practical and easy to use layout
The utility comes with a cool looking interface that has as main background for all the areas of the app a beautiful view of the Tower Bridge. The graphics are fairly well designed, but there is a noticeable letdown related to the lesser quality of the images that are included in the numerous sections of the application.
The information is well structured and presented in an organized manner so you will be able to easily access and read the details concerning every potential attraction listed inside London. Also, moving through the different areas of the app has a smooth feel to it, as it lacks any delays or other flaws.
Read some interesting facts about historic sites and other special places
The application keeps the details concerning the landmarks of Great Britain's capital city arranged into several categories, so you can browse the items hosted in there and, by selecting any entry, quickly view a short summary of info relevant for that particular place.
For every touristic attraction included in London you have an illustrative photo at your disposal, which you can open separately and zoom into with ease. Sharing those pictures is possible thanks to the dedicated feature built-in the app, but the textual content cannot be distributed in the same manner.
Should you care to keep some of the entries that are part of any of the main categories, simply pin them to the Start menu using the function from the menu displayed in the lower side of the screen.

Bottom Line
Design / UI9
The appearance of this utility is quite pleasing to the eye and the well thought-out layout also adds some value in this respect, the only visible drawback being the quality of the images shown inside the app. |
Function6
London doesn't provide enough information with regard to the places it includes in its database and it concentrates only on cultural and historical sites, leaving aside other potentially interesting locations. |
Security7
Only a few of the system areas in which this app needs to look are related to its functionality, so it should be treated carefully. |
Battery8
While the application is running its the power consumption is average, which translates into a moderate battery usage. |
Price7
London can certainly be a good starting base for anyone interested in learning a few things about important landmarks from the capital of the United Kingdom, but it needs a lot more to increase its overall value. |
Compatibility8
This app was made to function on the more recent devices that are powered by Windows Phone 8 and above, with a screen resolution of at least 480 by 800 pixels. |
