Paris Guide 3.5.0.0
Those who prefer to look for details about the most interesting locations in Paris while they are on the go can try a specialized utility that is meant for all Windows Phone users and goes by the name of Paris Guide.
Clean looks, focused on practicality
The app brings a somewhat different perspective as its interface is built around the map of the capital of France and there are few elements of design that could pass as attractive.
Moving around the map and going from one section of the app into another is done seamlessly, without any noticeable delays of other kind of glitches.
Browse the places included in the app's database on the fly
A neat feature of Paris Guide is the well thought-out structuring of the locations it includes, so you can easily pick the ones you find more appealing from an alphabetically ordered list that can be brought up with a single tap on the corresponding button hosted inside the main menu.
If you want to explore the map and check out the attractions marked there, you can tap the numbers to view the names of those places and with another tap open the informative section allocated to each of them.
Access plenty of info and a set of nice pictures for every location
With Paris Guide you can read a good deal of info about each of the local attractions it has in store for you and there are also some relevant images accompanying each listing. The great thing is that the source of information is as reliable as it can be since all the data is taken from Wikipedia.
If you are interested in learning even more about one place or another, there is an URL address placed at the beginning of each article and it leads to the original page.

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
With a rather common but still decent appearance, this utility offers a good perspective of the city and a fluent navigation from end to end. |
Function7
The list of locations contained inside Paris Guide is good enough for a short trip in the French capital, but otherwise it could use a bit of improvement here, as the amount of data and the photos are quite appropriate in quality and quantity. |
Security9
This app seems to be fairly safe to install and use, but users should note that it will need to access the phone identity for some reason. |
Battery4
The amount of energy needed by this application to function well is quite large, so the battery usage remains at very high levels at all times. |
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
Ready to run on any Windows Phone handset currently on the market, Paris Guide will only need version 7 of the OS to work. |
