Santiago Guide 3.5.0.0
Acquiring as many details as possible regarding the places to see is a common activity that many users can now carry out from their mobile devices.
For those who own a Windows Phone powered device, a tool like Santiago Guide will do the trick if they are about to visit the beautiful capital of Chile.
Friendly interface with a practical design
This application comes with a quite original look relatively that has at its core the map navigation feature and for this reason the visually appealing elements of design are scarce. This means that the graphics are common and do not stand out through any more eye catching components.
Going through the several areas of Santiago Guide and navigating the map in road or aerial view mode has a really fluent feel to it.
Go through the most interesting places on the fly
Insofar as the organization of the content is concerned, there should be no issues in finding a certain place as long as it is included in the database of this utility. The locations are marked distinctly on the map and by tapping any of the markers will reveal the name of that place.
An advantage offered by the list view of the highlighted locations is the alphabetical organization, which makes it a breeze to find any place of interest you want to find out more about.
Getting inside this list is pretty easy as all you have to do is press the dedicated button from the main menu that resides in the lower part of the screen.
Santiago landmarks presented in detail
This virtual guide displays a good deal of details concerning any of the entries on the list of places or when you make a selection from the map shown inside the main screen.
The data is taken from one of the most reliable online sources out there, namely Wikipedia, but you can check the original pages, by accessing the links inside each article and verify the details to see if any of them are obsolete.

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
The application offers a decent appearance, focused on practicality, but with the content neatly structured and easy to browse, despite the rather annoying delay that appears on startup. |
Function7
There is a proper amount of info provided about each location listed inside Santiago Guide, however the number of places from the app's database is relatively small. |
Security9
This utility looks fairly safe to install and use, but users should note that it still needs to access the phone identity for some reason. |
Battery2
The power consumption for this app is massive, so the battery will deplete after a short while, especially if the aerial view is used extensively. |
Price10
The fact that it doesn't require a purchase and lacks annoying ads and prompts works well in its advantage. |
Compatibility10
All Windows Phone users can take this application for a spin as it can function on any device that has at least version 7 or above of the operating system installed. |
