Phoenix Guide 3.1.0.0
Getting as many details as possible concerning the most interesting spots to see is a common activity that many users can easily carry out from their mobile devices thanks to specialized applications like Phoenix Guide.
Uncomplicated front-end made to be easy to work with
The application comes with an interface that is centered on the map of Arizona's capital city, leaving other visual enhancements aside. Going through the several areas of the app and moving around the map in road or aerial view mode has a fluent feel to it.
Despite the smooth navigation, the looks of Phoenix Guide are not too eye catching, so the practical aspect clearly prevails from the visual point of view, even if some minor delays might appear when loading the map or zooming in.
Effortlessly browse the main attractions
A neat feature of this application is the well-thought 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 highlighted there, you can tap the numbers to view the names of those places and with another tap open the section containing the detailed information.
Discover new things about each landmark on the go
As soon as you select any of the places included in Phoenix Guide you will have at your fingertips a selection of historical details and interesting facts that is accompanied by a set of high-quality images, all these originating from the articles hosted by Wikipedia.
In case you want to view the entire article and all the related references, you have at your fingertips the link to the original page inside each section containing data about the location you accessed.

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
The utility has a quite decent look that is more focused on practicality than appeal, with the content neatly structured and easy to browse. |
Function7
The application offers a good deal of details for each location, but there are very few places included in the database. |
Security9
Phoenix Guide will only look a the phone's identity for some reason, but other than that it remains discreet and leaves other system areas alone. |
Battery3
The app takes up an increasing amount of energy so as long as it is running the battery will become exhausted pretty fast. |
Price7
This is a rather useful tool to have, as it offers without any nuisance or need to purchase a lot of information, but the minimalistic number of locations takes a heavy toll on its value. |
Compatibility10
With support for every Windows Phone device, this virtual guide only needs that version 7 or above of the operating system is installed. |
