Bottom Line
Design / UI8
 

This utility has a simple look, more practical than appealing, but still well organized and with a smooth navigation on the map.

Function7
 

Moscow Guide comes with a relatively small number of landmarks and attractions but it provides plenty of details, text and images, while also allowing users to get directions on the fly.

Security9
 

The app remains fairly discreet while running, as it only needs to access the phone identity even if it is unrelated to its functionality.

Battery4
 

There is a very significant power consumption related to this utility and this translates into a very high battery usage.

Price8
 

Since it comes free of any cost and nuisance to offer a good deal of details and suggestive images for the places it contains gives this app a good value overall.

As long as the handset on which users want to install this app is running Windows Phone 7 or above, everything will work smoothly.
