Not Working.

It's not letting me access the app even though I have an Audubon account. It wants people who are already registered with Audubon to enter their password twice (which seems silly). I enter mine and tap to go to the next field; then the app locks up and I can't get any farther. ERHmd Date: several years later. I can get into the app now. The owl calls make it great all by themselves.
Cool but buggy app

I downloaded this app for my toddler, and the download video command seems like it could help for viewing videos in the absence of an internet connection. However, the videos appear to be bugged as tapping on any video prompts you to download the app content, even after you have already successfully done so. The pictures and owl calls all work, this appears limited to the videos (which is one of the biggest reasons I downloaded). Otherwise, a nice app!
Great!

Great app- informational and fun. The only problem I see with this app is in the Photo Quiz, where it asks a Boreal owl, but the correct answer is a juvenile Northern Saw-Whet. That's the only problem, otherwise, it's great!

I use the app to verify my nighttime owl observations. Very satisfied with consistency of eastern owl sounds with recordings in app.
Hagsmire, this app is!?

This app does not have all the owls, it also says barn owls aren’t real owls! Well that’s just racdrops. Also it says masked, spotted, and moss owls aren’t related to barn owl, GREAT GLAUX! I wish I didn’t have to give this a star
Where’s others?

One of my New Years resolutions was to be sure to leave App reviews. Imagine my surprise when I noted other Audubon apps aren’t 64-bit compatible, and don’t work anymore. Mammals, Reptiles & Amphibians, I think I had them all. I could partially forgive you if you had a new “unified” Audubon app, with in-app purchases of modules like “Mammals”, etc. but that’s not what happened. I know it’s not trivial to recompile an App, but it’s not THAT hard and I’m assuming you have a programmer or outsourced this. Very unhappy.
Great!

Love this app. Only fault I’ve found is the great grey owl hoot. Not really accurate as it replays a tiny snippet over and over but it’s a minor thing and doesn’t detract enough to lower the rating. Get this app if you are interested in owls. It’s awesome!
