Random New App of the Day: Paris Offline Map and Travel Guide

image

Today I’ve dug out yet another new app from BlackBerry World, and if you’re a frequent prowler of the New Arrivals section like me, I’ll bet your first impression would be “Another silly map app again?!”.

This is Paris Offline Maps and Travel Guide by Tripomatic.

image

The app allows you to plan a rough itinerary based on the various major attractions around, you guessed it, Paris. You can choose to login which should allow you to sync to other devices you own.

image

Once in the app you can add a number of days to your trip following which you can proceed to add attractions to your itinerary.

image

There are also filters to sort out all the attractions so you won’t get really lost in the app.

image

Tap on an attraction and you can see a brief description plus some important information about the attractions. You can then proceed to add it to one of the few days of your trip.

image

An online map gives you a pictorial map of the locations of the attraction and you can tap on the attractions to find out more.

image

Offline Maps are available for Paris at $5 and it’s quite a huge download so it’s probably not one of those cache-as-you-scroll map apps.

Closing thoughts:

Things I like about the app:
-Provides a good range of attractions to visit in Paris with helpful information on the place of interest
-Built for BlackBerry!
-App is free, unless you’d prefer to use the Offline Maps

What I’d like improved:
– Better itinerary planning that allows you to create a scheduled iitinerary
– BlackBerry Travel integration
– Fix the share options

PS: after reviewing this app. I found that Tripomatic has a general app that allows you to plan for other cities as well. Much more useful if you’re destination is not only Paris.
