“On Guide” is a mobile application developed to mainly give service for visits or guided groups of tourists. The mobile phone replaces any other external reusable electronic device used up to now. Therefore, there are two types of applications: one for the guide and another for the tourist. In addition, all this supported by a group management system for the contracting companies. On Guide has eliminated important conditions such as distance, dependence and control of devices, cleaning and sanitary conditions for reusable equipment, etc. “On Guide” has previously unknown utilities, such as geolocation of meeting points, route information, help option, etc., as well as other infinitive possibilities for improvement.
