User Interface & Layout

Destination Bali is a fairly small 7 MB app, which brings its users plenty of information written by people who have experienced the location first-hand, so you know that the information you receive will be quite accurate.

This travel app's UI is very simple, yet unique and pleasant to look at. Rather than just picking up the classic app theme which has been overdone, the developers have tweaked it to make it suit the content of the app.

There is a five-icon navigation tray at the bottom of the app which helps you go through the different sections of this app, namely Latest, About Bali, Do Bali, See Bali, and More.

Articles & Alerts

All the various sections consist of articles that cover everything from flower-picking to surfing and partying. The Latest tab has all the articles published for Destination Bali in chronological order. If you wish to be alerted each time a new article is published on this app, you can enable push notifications.

This is a great option because articles are not published very frequently and push notifications will not be too disruptive, unlike with other news apps. Furthermore, you can even choose which alerts you'd like to get based on the Category, Tag, and Author.

When you tap on any of the articles that catch your interest, you will be taken to another screen where the content of the article, including the text and images, is presented on a neat format that perfectly fits the screen of your iOS device. Underneath the article you will find a tray that enables you to go to the next or previous article, or change the font size for easier reading.
