Raleigh Guide 1.0.0.0
Since this activity can be carried out very well even if you are on the move, you can try one of the apps for Windows Phone dedicated to that purpose and going by the name of Raleigh Guide.
Clean GUI with a focus on functionality
This app offers a somewhat different perspective than other tools of its kind as it focuses on a map-based navigation method and this influences a lot the appearance. Thus, the visually pleasing elements of graphical design are left aside as the practical aspect takes over.
Going through the various sections of the application and navigating from one place to another on the map are carried out seamlessly, without any visible delay of other kind of glitch in both the aerial and road views.
Browse through all the locations and choose the ones you are interested in
The utility allows you to check out the landmarks in Raleigh's area by browsing the complete list of places it has in store. To activate it you just have to tap the corresponding button from the main menu placed in the lower side of the screen.
Raleigh Guide has all the important spots highlighted and numbered on the map, so you just have to tap the marker to view the name of that spot and with another press bring up the info associated with it.
Discover the tourist locations through photos and detailed information
With the help of this utility you will get quite a bit of info on all local attractions it has in store for you and there are also some nice photos accompanying each listing. A neat thing is that the source of information is the reliable online encyclopedia Wikipedia.
In case you want to check out the original page, there is a link included inside each article and on the source page you can get a lot more details, including transportation information, extra historical references and others.

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
With a rather common, but still nice appearance, this utility offers a good perspective of the city and a fluent navigation from end to end. |
Function7
The amount of information provided by Raleigh Guide for each location is sufficient, but the number of places it includes in its database seems a bit small. |
Security10
The application remains very discreet while running as it doesn't need to access any secure areas of the system. |
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. |
Price9
A decent source of information for a few interesting places any tourist would like to visit when visiting the city of Raleigh, North Carolina, this app has a good value on the whole. |
Compatibility10
This app is meant for use on any Windows Phone device out there, starting with handsets powered by version 7 of the operating system. |
