Epub.Mobi acknowledges the fact that productivity goes down when you have tired, overworked, close to burn out employees. This is precisely the reason why we encourage our mobile application development experts to have the latest version of the Tripadvisor mobile app installed on their mobile devices.  Just like the TripAdvisor website, this app lets users find the best deals for a trip and browse through millions of travel reviews shared by members of the community.

TripAdvisor is the most popular travel review site on the web today.  The reason for this is because the reviews are not written professional critics but by travelers themselves.  Instances of fake reviews (possibly a result of some smear campaign coming from unscrupulous competitors and disgruntled employees) do crop up, hundreds and thousands of real reviews from real customers far outweigh and overwhelm these inaccurate appraisals.

After installing and starting the TripAdvisor mobile app, the user is immediately greeted with a simple menu with the following items: Hotels, Restaurants, Things To Do, Flights, Forums, Near Me Now and My Saves.  Separated from these categories but right under the this group is Write A Review.  The interface is clean from here but seems to get crowded once search results have been generated and displayed.

Searching and navigating the results is very straightforward, though.  Looking for a hotel for example, choose Hotels from the menu, type in a location in the text box provided, and then click on the Find Hotels button and the app readily displays a list of hotels from its database.  Clickable tabs marked Stay, Eat, and See further group the results to help you decide where to stay, where to eat and what attractions there are to see.  The list can also be sorted by Price and by the Rating.  Choosing an item lets you view photos, read traveler reviews, and view a map highlighting the venue’s location.  Saving your selection for later viewing can be done easily at the tap of the Save button.

A great convenience is the ability to call or send an email to an establishment directly from the app.  If you are in a hurry to find a place to go to, use TripAdvisor’s Near Me Now tool to help you find what’s interesting in your vicinity.

Another great feature is the Virtual Tour via the Street View button.  Clicking on this button displays a panoramic view of the desired destination enabling users to see the neighborhood and the venue’s surrounding.  This is handy for those who want to check out the place first before actually going there.

TripAdvisor mobile app’s best feature (for the iPad and iPhone) is undeniably the one that uses Augmented Reality (AR).  Dubbed as Live View, users can now use their camera to view an establishment and see TripAdvisor’s reviews, ratings and other details about it superimposed on the screen. This truly is an impressive innovation by TripAdvisor’s mobile application development experts!

Get this remarkable free app from iTunes, the Android Marketplace, Nokia’s OVI, Windows Phone Marketplace and HP Palm.
