WinPhone Info Free 3.1.0.0
For those who want to find out more about their Windows Phone powered devices, a tool like WinPhone Info Free could be the right choice, especially since it covers many system areas and has some extra abilities.
Quick access to all the contained data through a friendly GUI
The app greets you with a pretty decent interface where the neatly animated and highly informative tiles are set against a cool background. Also, the details concerning the system properties are quite well structured and easy to get to.
Navigating among the various sections and menus of the utility has a fluent feel to it, as there are no lags or other similar delays. Unfortunately, some hindrances are present and they take the shape of advertisement banners that follow you around in every corner.
Some prompts to rate and review WinPhone Info Free appear after one or two launches, but they can be deactivated and dismissed with a single tap.
Browse the information categories on the fly
With the help of this application you will be able to check out on the go the general system info, view memory and storage data, as well as the details concerning the mobile and WiFi networks or the regional settings.
In case you want to view information that is provided by very few apps of this kind you can visit the "Media" folder and see how many songs and pictures are stored onto your mobile device and other related details.
The sensor data picked up by WinPhone Info Free is made available inside a special section and you can even activate the location detection for further data about your current position. Battery information and other extra details are included in the "Miscellaneous" module.
Manage favorites and add Start screen shortcuts
For every single subcategory of info included in this app you can tap the "favorite" button and have it added in a dedicated area, so it will be a lot easier to have at hand only the areas of information you are strictly interested in.
In order to keep one tap away some system settings and launch them from the Start screen, this utility allows you to pin some shortcut tiles from the "Settings Launchers" area.
Also, if you want to send out the details concerning the configuration of your mobile device, WinPhone Info Free lets do that by including everything inside an email message with one tap. Sharing your location and viewing it on the map is also possible thanks to the built-in functions of this app.

Bottom Line
Design / UI7
The application has a decent appearance on the whole, but the numerous ads spoil some of the good feel. |
Function8
This utility is a reliable source of information and has a few pinnable shortcuts to various system settings, but is limited in terms of sharing options. |
Security8
WinPhone Info Free needs to access all the system areas to provide accurate data, but it also collects anonymous data usage by default, a setting that can be deactivated. |
Battery3
If the app is kept running for longer periods of time, it will discharge the battery very fast as because it has a massive power consumption. |
Price9
The feature set is offered freely, but in order to get rid of the pesky advertisements users have to pay. |
Compatibility10
The vast majority of Windows Phone users can have this app up and running on any device that is powered by version 7.5 or higher of the OS. |
