Wroclaw Guide 4.2.0.0

Discover with a virtual guide the beauty of a historical Polish city turned into a tourist attraction
When planning a vacation or even a short stay in a certain place abroad it is always a good idea to get some information regarding the facilities and local attractions you will find when you arrive there.

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 Wroclaw Guide in case you are getting ready to travel to one of Poland's most interesting cities.

Unsophisticated look, with a practical touch

From the visual perspective, this application doesn't offer a lot since its looks are mainly designed to be more functional than appealing. Everything revolves the map displayed inside the main screen and all the functions and commands are placed conveniently, for quick access.

If navigating the aerial or road maps, as well as the various sections of the app is done smoothly and the imagery contained inside is of very good quality, the looks of Wroclaw are not too eye catching, so the practical aspect prevails from the visual point of view.

Find the tourist attractions on the fly

With this application you have at your disposal a bit over 30 spots to visit and they are starred on the map, so by zooming in and pressing once on the number assigned to each of them you can view their name. A second tap, this time on the name of the selected place will open the corresponding informative section.

The top attractions of Wroclaw are also included in a separate section, from where you can open the corresponding articles which are arranged neatly, in alphabetical order and learn a bit about each place.

A great asset of this guide is the integration with the navigation solution that is installed onto your handset, so it can offer accurate directions to any of the locations you select either directly from the map or via the list of places.

Get to know each landmark in no time

For every spot included in Wroclaw Guide you can read the details provided by the Wikipedia articles and there are also some neat photographs that are illustrative for each of the locations.

There is even more info you can easily access if you want to learn more about any of the attractions and this can be done by visiting the source page for which the URL address is made available inside every listing.

Bottom Line
Design / UI7
 

From the visual perspective, the application has a few things to offer, like the nice pictures of each spot included in its database and the smooth navigation, so it earns some good points here.

Function7
 

The amount of information provided for each location is sufficient, but there are simply way too few places included in the database.

Security9
 

The utility needs to look into the phone identity for some reason, while the other sensitive areas of the system are left untouched.

Battery4
 

The application will deplete the battery in a relatively short while because it has a very high power consumption all the time it is running.

Price10
 

A very good source of information for a few interesting places any tourist would like to visit when touring Wroclaw, this app has an excellent value.

Compatibility10
 

All Windows Phone users can take this application for a spin as it can function on any device that has at least version 7.5 or above of the operating system installed.
