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, even if there is a noticeable delay when the app is launched. |
Function7
There is a proper amount of info provided about each location listed inside this guide, but the number of places included in the app's database seems a bit too small. |
Security9
Tucson Guide seems quite discreet and it manages to stay well off the sensitive areas of the system, but it still requires access to the phone identity for some reason. |
Battery1
This app will simply deplete the battery as it has a huge power consumption due to the detailed online maps it comes with. |
Price8
Overall, this app is a good tool to have since it brings some useful information in a simple form, without asking for anything in return. |
Compatibility10
As long as the handset on which users want to install this app is running Windows Phone 7 or above, everything will work smoothly. |
